Cleanig the Bailer

Rustin helping Randy clean out the bailer so they can put it up for the winter.
He decided that it was more fun to let daddy do the work while he played in the snow.

Whoops! Almost fell down...

Throwing more snowballs. They are not quite as big as they were the first time. I guess that because Rustin was making them himself.

Well now his gloves are full of snow and he is getting cold so he came and told me it was time to go home.

Look how cute. He takes right after his daddy doesnt he! Every time Randy sits down with his feet up Rustin has to pull up his foot rest too- even though his legs don't even reach.

Rustin found these glasses and they soon became his. He played with them for a while and eventually they gave in and broke. But look how cute he looks in them!

This was our first snow fall this year. Rustin has been here for snow before, but he is now old enough to play in it and wasn't quite sure what he should do. For a few minutes he just walked around and watched it stick to his boots.

Randy was just getting ready to go out and feed the cows or do something on the farm so he showed rustin how to make a snow ball. This was fun for him.

Then, his dad decided to show him that you throw the snowball. He kept running to me and throwing the snowball at me. He never hit me, but always came really close and then threw it. I had to duck a few times.

After Randy left Rustin decided that he wanted to go over to Olivias house. (She lives just next to us). We went over there and they played and they buit a snowman. I am not sure the Rustin was much help but he enjoyed it.

Christmas Time Is Here!

We just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! We hope you all have a fun and enjoyable holiday.

Seeing Santa

I think Rustin thought he was going to die. He cried so bad! (As you can see) Hopefully he will grow out of this... It is his 3rd year seeing santa. The first he was just 2 mo. old so no problems there. The 2nd he cried also, and of course you can see how this year went.

He decided that sitting on santas lap with mom is not so bad.

Mikinzie also had a hard time sitting with santa. I dont know why he is so scarry...

Justin talked to him like they are old friends

And of course Logan- He enjoyed telling Santa everything he wanted for Christmas.

Mikinzie, Justin, & Logan are my sisters kids. We went to Zion's Bank to see santa. My mom works there and she told us that he was comming. Hooray!

Our Christmas Tree

We put up our Christmas Tree around the 4th or 5th of December. I think that it is a little easier when it was just me putting up the tree. Rustin sure is a helper though. He helped put the branches in , put on a few decorations and then mostly played with the trash (bags, sticks, anything he could find). I love having our tree up and so does Rustin, Randy also said that it looks nice this year. We went and bought us new decorations for the tree. I was tired of the decorations that we had. They have been the same for about 4 years now. So shopping we went and found us these new decorations. It took only about 3 stores for me to find what I wanted, but we did it! Rustin is the one that usually plugs in the lights in the morning. He has learned quick that he doesn't play in the tree, or mom gets mad-but he still attempts sometimes. We are going to try and get some lights put up outside this year. Hopefully that will be successful as well!

Playin outside

It was a warm day about a week ago or so- and we decided to go outside to play. Even notice that Rustin is not wearing a coat. He loves his tractors and trucks- I either watch him play or do things in the yard while he plays. I dont get many pictures of me because I am the person always behind the camera. I am about the only one in my family that remembers to bring my camera or thinks to get it out to capture a moment.But it all works out. Here in the picture is rustin playing but notice the shadow-- thats me! I guess I will show up in photos other ways!

Better late than never!

Rustin and Texie had fun playing together during thanksgiving. Its a good thing that my mom has two of these wonderful booster seats. We kind of got a good family photo- too bad rustin wasnt looking at the camera. Before rustin and I went down to my moms house to help her cook he decided that he was going to wear Randys tie and his yellow water boots. Doesnt he look great! My Grandma Alice and Grandpa Lee moved to Duchesne a while ago. We love having them here and it makes it great for them to come and have thanksgiving dinner with us. Karri wasnt able to come out for thanksgiving because the becksteads were skinning mink! Sounds fun.... Anyway- mal was also gone while we were cooking dinner- she went to carsons. So that left Me, Katti, and Mom to cook the great thanksgiving meal. We all had a blast and enjoyed eachothers company. Ty and Step came to eat with us also, because Margarett and Dwayne went on vacation. We enjoyed them!

Just a cute picture!

I just think that this is a really good picture. I took it in front of my house.
