January Shenanigans


Besides passing a cold around the house to everyone, we had a busy first month of the year. Here are a few highlights:

Weston loves being surrounded by the big jungle animals the kids got for Christmas. He loves snuggling with them and burying his head in the softness.



We have been looking for a new speaker system for along time now (our other one pretty much went kaput). There was a great speaker that went on sale on Amazon, and as a bonus also came with a disco ball and a karaoke microphone. So, now we have dance parties in our dining room!




I just love these pictures that I captured of Weston and Justin. Weston loves it when he comes home from work. This is the only word he says so far...."Dadn!" That means Daddy. And he loves being held or sitting by him. It's the cutest thing ever.




Bubbles!



He doesn't take naps anymore.....








It's an octopus










Are we crazy for building a fire in the fire pit in January and roasting marshmallows? Yes. But Brandon did a great job showing us how he learned to set up the wood from scouts!









Brandon earning his Webelos badge, his Arrow of Light and crossing over into 11 year old scouts



And earning his Religious Knot from Bishop Adams



Having a little too much fun way up there in the garage






We love working from home days!



Watching Epic with the projector with the Dolans on New Years day










Brandon performing at the Choir Festival, he got to perform in a small group down by the mic for one of the songs




Friends from the ward who performed also (since they got to sing a song with the high school choir)....Olivia, Emily and Makayla



A busy way to start out the year!

The Boys Turn Another Year Older



It is crazy that Brandon and Dylan have turned yet another year older. They are growing up too fast!

Brandon requested Chinese food again this year. And it was yummy!



Eleven? Really?



Love the lovely sign made by Lindsey



Lots of love!




His other request: a BYU cake. This is as fancy as I get folks!














And this boy can't be 4! Where did the time go? He requested pancakes, scrambled eggs, bacon and OJ. Yum again!




Trying to do a lay down in front of your presents pose, like Brandon did the day before. :)




 





Dylan got a box full of swords that are just his size. Everyone grabbed one and we had a sword fight!



Weston tried to eat his.



Everyone got BYU gear for their birthday. Here's Dylan in his new hat and shirt, coloring his new dot-to-dot book.



And here is Brandon sporting his new hat and shirt. They were both very excited!



How do I stop the clock???

Happy birthday Brandon and Dylan!
