Thanksgiving

We always have a fun Thanksgiving. It is really nice to get to see both my side and Nathan's side of the family.

THOMAS SIDE

Talon and Josh. Watch out when these two get together it is always loud and rambunctious. :)
Mia and her Grandma Thomas. Nathan's mom does her Thanksgiving the Saturday after so that we can all come.
VALENTINE SIDE
My parents had Thanksgiving in their new house this year. It was so nice to be all together.
Mia and Hadley sitting on Grandpa Valentine's lap.

We took a family picture that I think turned out really well.

8 Months Old!

Mia is now 8 months old!

She is so much fun but she is growing way to fast!
Mia now has two teeth (on the bottom) and is working on one on the top now.
She is army crawling everywhere....she should be regular crawling in the next little while.
She loves to watch her big brother, I can tell she wants to be running around playing with him. (She will be doing this all to soon and I am not in to big of a hurry for this to happen.) :)

Ward Halloween Party

We had a fun time at our ward Halloween party.
Family Picture
Nathan participated in a spam carving contest.
This is his final product....I think he did a great job considering he had to carve it out of spam.

HALLOWEEN!

I dressed up like a pirate for Halloween this year.
Mia was a very cute leopard.
Talon was a very handsome Yoda.
I should get a picture of Talon doing his Yoda face. He wrinkles up his forehead and scrunches up his mouth, it is a pretty good impression of Yoda. :)

TALON!

Talon is now 3.5 years old. He is so smart and busy, he defiantly keeps me on my toes.

He absolutely loves Preschool! He is learning things fast and loves his teacher Mrs. Shayla.
He made the crown one day in school.

He is in love with STAR WARS. He is going to be Yoda for Halloween.
Many times I find him with a sword (light saber) and a cape on pretending he is Darth Vader or with a gun being a Strormtrooper. :)
Love you so much Talon life would be dull without you!

A Fun Day!

July 23, 2011
Adam (Nathan's Bro) surprised us all and came here from Boston. He met Mia for the first time. :)
We had a BBQ at Liberty Park with family and just relaxed and had a good time.
Talon went to his friend Kortney's birthday party.
Daddy was home for the weekend! We always LOVE when he is home.

24th of July!

On the 24th of July we had a BBQ at Nathan's grandparents house.

We were celebrating not only the 24th but also Nathan's Dad had just retired so we celebrated that as well.

We also did Fireworks.



All the kids lined up to get their firework lit.

Big Boy Bike

We got Talon a big boy bike.

He likes it but is a little wobbly on it. I hope in the next little while we can practice on it more.

Talon has had a lot of fun in the pool this year. We got him a life jacket and he loves it!
