Josh had a Birthday Last Month

Joshie celebrated his birthday last month. He actually had to share his birthday with fathers day this year. I felt bad that they were the same day so I decided to separate them. We celebrated his birthday a few days before and fathers day on fathers day.

For his birthday a friend of mine watched Payton so Josh and I could go on a date and it was so fun. He got lots of gifts and he is very appreciative of them. On fathers day he got his rotisserie for the barbecue and was very excited to use it and cook his first pineapple.

This was Payton giving his dad a big squeeze for his birthday! Josh got his nice outfit from my mom for his birthday.

I gave him this BRIGHT PINK shirt


The whole outfit my mom gave me. He looks GOOD!

Cute little Payton ready for bed

Payton got this horse from my boss and he loves it. He quickly figured out how to get on and off all by himself we were so glad.

It's been too long

Life for us has been very busy! Josh has been working a few extra days here and there, I am getting ready for girls camp, and Payton is growing, talking, and becoming such a big boy.

Josh's brother Joel has started his own business in Utah. He is selling neck ties! His business is called Neck Strings by Black Blag and he is located in the University Mall there in Provo, Utah. He is still working on getting his website up, but we will have it up and running real soon so you can purchase ties online through him. Anyways...So this picture of Payton and Josh is a show of one of his ties he sells, it's called the Joshua Tie.

Surprise Trip to Utah

A few weeks ago Payton and I drove to Utah with my brother Josh and surprised my parents and brother. It was very last minute. Josh had been at our house for about 3 weeks and he had decided to go back to Utah. I had a good idea that Payt and I should go back with him as a surprise. I called my sister in St. George told her my plan and she too decided to drive up to our parents and surprise them. We all had a good time except we all got the flu. I was down a few days and so was my mom. Josh and Payt had gotten it before we had left. We pretty much all just had Saturday together so we went to a Bee's game. It was so much fun.

Payt loves his Uncle Josh and sure misses having him at our house
