Hey everyone,


Ryan is trying really hard to get his videography business up and running. Since he is such a perfectionist in this area (I wish sometimes it were in other areas, like picking up his belongings) he does a fantastic job. He has just started a blog to help him in advertising and I am wondering if you would all be willing to post the link to his blog on your blog list. I know that lots of people surf blogs and thought that this may help him to get the word out there. His blog is tripp777.blogspot.com.


THANKS!

Tripp and Piper had a grand Halloween. It began with breakfast together, cleaning the house and then the fun.......icing cookies! Tripp was in charge of putting sprinkles on the cookies. As I opened the bag of sprinkles they flew EVERYWHERE and I responded with an, "oh shit"! Tripp followed it up with, "oh shit mom, oh shit mom, oh shit mom...." Yes, I am a wonderful role model for my son.

We started our evening in Nephi, traveled through Mona, stopped in Springlake and ended in Payson. They both did really well and enjoyed showing off. Tripp struggled with the fact that he didn't get to eat every single piece of candy as it was handed to him! I think the best part of the night was getting home early enough for Tripp to open our door for the trick or treaters. He would open it up and yell "ar, ar" Most of the freaks just stood there and stared at him! Ryan and I chuckled at him every time...duh to us! He did tell a few of the kids that they needed to "go home and eat that candy, ok?" I think this must have been from the billion times that we told him, "we are taking the candy home to eat".


We had a really hard time taking a great picture of Tripp. He was NOT interested. This is a candid shot we took of him. It appears as though he is concentrating very hard. I think he must be contemplating how to get the rest of the "loot"!

These pictures posted in the wrong order and I am not talented enough to fix it! This was her second day eating. It was at least twice as messy as the first. I am pretty sure it is suppose to be the other way around! Piper was so funny. Everytime I put a spoonful in her mouth she would stick her thumb in her mouth. We had cereal EVERYWHERE!

She likes it!!

Open wide!!!

Piper showing off that darling smile!

Ryan for some unknown reason thinks that climbing into a stripped out car and crashing it is fun! This year was no exception. He took his car from last year to the Juab County Fair Demolition Derby on Saturday. His main goal was to total what was left of his car. He accomplished his goal and even earned some aches and pains to go along with it! Even though I give him a little grief it is so fun to see him on Derby Day!


Ryan had lots of fans rooting for him. Here is one of his students, the sign is awesome and made Ryan's day. She put a lot of thought into the whole event. She is in an orange shirt and made her family where orange as well. Her sign has a picture of "Mr. Kay" and his fauxhawk.

See you next year!

I haven't posted in a while so I am making up for it with three posts today. I have the cutest video too but I can't get it to upload. I wonder if it is to long...... any suggestions..... I also can't get the date to show and it keeps saying "undefined" after the title of my post. I am new to this whole thing and will take any advice I can get!



Now on to the good stuff! We are having such a great summer together. Here are a couple of pictures that Ryan took while we were hanging out one night. He is exploring his talents as a photographer so anyone in need of a FREE photo shoot give him a call. He would love the practice.






Piper is still in the cooing and smiling stage. She is so much fun to watch and snuggle. She loves to watch lights and TV and has slept through the night for the past 5 days!!!! She is a very easy going baby. Lucky Me!



Tripp has been such a great helper this summer. This picture shows him helping his daddy with their daily watering. He loves to swim, dance, read books, and talk to his baby sister. His vocabulary is still growing at a rapid rate. We now have to be VERY cautious of what we say in front of him!

The other night we were outside and a horse pulling a wagon drove by. Tripp started screaming
"horsey arrr arrr". It took me a second glance at the horse to realize what he meant. The horse had black eye shades on that resembled pirate patches. Tripp saw his first pirate horse right here in Payson Utah! Everytime he tells the story I chuckle! Lucky Me!

He is so proud of his little sis. As you can see, she can get a little overwhelmed with him. Her eyes are constantly bugging out by his boistorous voice. The first thing he does when he wakes up is find Piper and talk to her. It is so dang cute.


Tripp and Piper share a common trait with Ryan. They all love watching TV!
