A weekend full of sunshine

Boy do we have spring fever! 60 degree temps and the wonderful sunshine all weekend! We got out quite a bit this weekend. Saturday we went up to Sunnyside Park and then today (Sunday) went to Boyer Park down at the Snake River. Dogs got lots of running around time and Sawyer did too!

We were able to get the trike out for our Boyer Park trip. Sawyer enjoyed it most of the way but did do some of his own walking too...




Some pics of the dogs having a good time too....

Sawyer & Butch

Sawyer & Quila met Butch last week for a photo-op. I took the pictures and made Valentines out of them :)

Cooking time

Sawyer's Nanny, Emily, gave him this cooking set for x-mas. I saved it for a day when his other x-mas gifts "wore off" and today was the day! He loves to "cook with mama" so this was a big hit.








Being interrupted while cooking does not make this chef too happy :)

More Snow Days....

Gramma and Papa visited last weekend and had some fun in the snow with Sawyer



Snow angels with Dad....








Doing some snow shoveling - thank goodness for help!

We pulled out the finger paints today and Sawyer made some beautiful pictures....

Busy Artist

Frustrated Artist



Accomplished Artist

Christmas

A visit to Santa a few days before Christmas





A gift from Auntie Sissy.....we may have had more fun with it then Sawyer did!








A bath at Grandma & Papa's....something to show his prom date in a few years :)

Snow Days

Sawyer, the dogs and I just got back from a walk in the snow and fog. Really beautiful out there. I actually took this walk yesterday but didn't have my camera so we repeated it today.






A self photo to show how much fun we were having...at least I look to be having a good time :)




Some backyard fun a couple days ago....

A November Walk

Packed everyone up and took a walk down by the Snake River today. Sunny but windy and cold. Sawyer didn't seem to mind a bit.










A picture of the other "kids".....posing for us patiently.



Catching a sniff of some rotten fish down by the river - we had them stay far away from that!

The Pumpkin

Some pictures of Sawyer posing by his pumpkin this afternoon. It was sunny but really cold out today! If it were up to me, I wouldn't of spent much time outside but Sawyer insisted :)





Our pumpkin was to be carved soon before Halloween but our friendly neighborhood squirrels had other ideas. It has been completely gutted and eaten.

Our little chicken

Tonight Sawyer attended his 1st Halloween party and went as a chicken. Of course, we got plenty of pictures!



Mama and her chicken


Sawyer and a little cowgirl met and his costume was an immediate hit


She was quite taken with Sawyer...or rather, the chicken, and had to be bribed away from him the rest of the night!










A full view to get the ful effect of this costume :)



A prize won to make the night complete "Our little fireman chicken"...is tired and ready for bed!
