Kidsville RULES!

We took the babes to this place called Kidsville which was AMAZING!  This place would have been my dream come true when I was little.  Tiny rooms to play dress up....bikes to ride around....slides...castles...MAN!  We had a blast.  Of course out of all the cool things to do...Ryden just wanted to push things around.
Nicole is tiny enough to ride with the babies
Going through tunnels and in caves
MOMO (Moses)..almost in the "one year old" club
Miss Hun playing with her dolls and hanging out with  Princess Reese
Ry even got to see his friend Vaughn who we haven't see in forever!  He's so big
This slide was KILLER!  It looks lame but I think you can tell from my expression that I thought I was going to crash and burn!

I'm pretending to be a fireman!  Get your head out of the gutter people
And more fun stuff...
What the?
What a fun day!

Ryden's AZ best friend turns ONE!

Since we missed Paxton's first birthday party, we made a special trip to Phoenix to let the boys hang out and be cool one year olds together.  Pax LOVED Ry and followed him all around the house.  Ryden took a little longer to warm up but once he did they were inseparable. 
They loved playing together and it was so fun to watch
My favorite was watching them push each other in the dump truck (and yes we even dressed them in the same shirts)
The first day in Phx was actually pretty nice.  Overcast and only in the 90's.  The boys took advantage and swam in the pool. Ry was a little fish.  Pax on the other hand just liked to do laps around the perimeter of the pool.  This gave Adam quite the work out





















After swimming...still running a muck
Snack time!
My wonderful cousin Katie had a slumber party with Ryden so that mommy and daddy could have a night out on the town!  Best Auntie ever!
And Jade and Adam's nephew Dillon stayed with Pax
Ready to PARTY..but we sure couldn't party like we used to!
The next day was a hot one.  Our friends Brandon and Katie came over with their new addition.
Meet Kelton...such a beautiful and calm baby
The boys needed to cool off with some tasty refreshments

Group shot!
Thank you Adam, Jade, and Pax for the excellent hospitality.  Four adults, and two kids can do a number to your clean house....sorry Jade!  But we had such a blast and can't wait to get the kiddies back together....LOVE YOU GUYS!

Shortest Tucson trip ever

Last weekend we decided to make a quick stop in Tucson before we headed to Phoenix to visit Adam, Jade, and Paxton.  We arrived around midnight on Wednesday and left around 6pm on Thursday so it was quite the quick visit.  We still had time to play with all the cousins and have a quick family dinner.  As always, Ryden loved hanging out with everyone.  Emma is 9mnts now and almost Ryden's size.  She desperatley wanted to move around like him....soon little girl...soon.

Ben and I did some chalk drawings..pretty good if you ask me
Ryden LOVED watching Ben draw and LOVED this toy thingy

Thanks for having us for the short time!  Next time it will be longer....we promise.
