A few more scary pumpkin pics































I've been baby sick for the last four weeks so I saved up some good post worthy pics.  First we have the scary pumpkins that the boys have been so excited about, then we have a halloween dress up moment with the Williams kids.  Morning sickness has not been fun but my husband makes it better.  He has been cleaning the house when he gets home from work and bringing me whatever I'm craving.  I told him I wanted plain M&M's so after a night of him staying up late and cleaning I woke up to his M&M creation (Bubs is my pet name, if you hadn't guessed).  Last is a pic on the Chandler Mall train which was so much fun.  The boys just felt so special.

Some after and before picture of Lawson's hair cut because I downloaded them backwards.






























We celebrated all the July and August Birthdays at Grandma and Grandpa Graves  house, and the boys had a wonderful time.

















































Lawson had a wonderful two year old birthday with lots of toys and of course Grandma made him a snake cake.

Our neighbors the Kelly's gave us tickets to go see the Wiggles.We invited Megan and Hudson and even though Breghten and Lawson have never seen them before they had a good time.  We got to the theater early so we waited in the car, everyone looks sad in the car but it really wasn't that long of a wait.  Before the Wiggles I got to go to camp.  The girls were awesome and I had a great time.  It was super hard to be away from the boys and Ryan.  I think I would do it again.
































We went to California where Ryan was Deputized and given the right to Marry Rob and Melissa.  It was a beautiful wedding with no spared expense.  Ryan made us laugh, cry and people really thought he was a Reverend.  Breghten took his responsibility as the ring bearer very seriously and later hooked up with the flower girl.  We are so happy for them and blessed to have such wonderful family.  












July has been a busy month full of fireworks with the Watsons, 


Breghten's birthday party, and Grandma Duke's must have dinosaur cake.  I have a close-up of the cake; but my camera went all blurry weird on me.

Breghten totally loves his new bed.  The first night he slept in it he was blown away and felt special.  It was a bit of a project painting it black; but worth it.  And when I say project, everything is a project when you have little kids.  I just want you to appreciate my efforts. 

Oquirrh Temple open house





























When we were in Utah we got to go to the Oquirrh open house.  The boys loved it and behaved themselves for the most part.  When we can home I asked Breghten if he liked the Temple he sounded disappointed when he said, "I thought I was going to be baptized."  He's got some good goals.

Here are some pics of us at My Grandma and Grandpa Reeders home in Colorado.  They recently built this house at the base of a mountain where hourses run  by and they keep chickens.  The boys just loved everything, especially the chicken coop; as you can see Breghten thinks it's just his size.  It was really fun to have Grandma's brother, sister, and sister-in-law come for a visit as well.

Here are some Lawson moments.  Trying on Emily's swim suit, charming Ashleigh, and applying his own sunscreen are just a few of his recent activities.

Ryan turned 31!  I tried to make it extra special for him because last year I was gone for his 30th.  We decided to get him a map wheel to help map out his long rides, and made sure he didn't do any work.  We made his favorite cake, German Chocolate; but I think he enjoyed my berry pies the most.  Ryan and I topped off the day with "Star Trek," which would have been more appricated by my dad instead of me.  Mission was accomplished when he told me, "It was a perfect birthday."

This happens every night at the Graves home


Another reason these boys love thier daddy.

My mom made all the boys the cutest puppy dog backpacks ever!  We all went to Joanns and with a little guidance each boy picked out the material for thier puppy's ears.  Ok so Lawson didn't care at all but Breghten picked his favorite color orange.  Lawson did however beg for the Jello pudding that ended up all over his face and clothing.  I'm so glad I got a pic of Breghten and Mason hugging goodbye.  Me and Ashliegh took a pic together too, but it wasn't very good so I will just keep it to myself.  We all can't wait till they come for another visit.
