{ Here comes Santa, Here comes Santa...}

On our way to the Colledge Christmas party Ryker fell asleep!!! So Grandpa Rob offered to hold him while Chace and I ate (So cute :)

Ryker was so excited to see Santa to tell him what he wanted this year and that he had been a good boy all year long. We were lucky that Ryker woke up in a good mood after his short snooze :) Shortly after we all started singing" Santa Clause is coming to town" To get Santa to come visit us ! Just then he and Miss Clause came into the gym ringing there bells !!! I loved seeing all the kids faces, so excited that Santa came to visit them..

Ryker was still a little nervous as we stood in line to see Santa but when it was his turn he went up there all by his self and had a good little talk with Santa.

My brother and his family were up from St.George Thanksgiving weekend:) My mom wanted a picture with her grand kids by Santa without having to run to the crazy busy mall so we got a ok picture with the Homely Santa from Wal-mart LOL ! got to love it :)

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

I thought this was so cute when Ryker showed it to me the other day when I picked him up from preschool. He always has to show me right away what he did in school before we even get in the car ! Ryker is learning so much he dose a really good job tracing his letters and is learning to right his name at home (not quite there yet) Ryker notices the letters in his name every where we go if it's on a sign or a billboard or on clothes,mountains etc it's so cute!

I am so Thankful for Ryker's sweet little spirit he's such a joy to Chace and I we love him very much!

HALLOWEEN FUN

This year Ryker was Jack Sparrow and he loved it!!! He got his Jack Sparrow sward at Disneyland from grandma Mel when we were there in September sadly after this picture it broke :(

Ryker loves going and visiting his great grand parents.I'm glad Ryker has the chance to get to know them

It was fun to see our family and friends all dressed up !!

To start the day of Halloween Ryker ,Chace and I went to McDonald's for lunch with my brother Kasey and his kids Paige and Isaac and my mom & Jill. After we let the kids play we went to visit Grandma and Grandpa Jorgensen.

After awhile we went home to get Ryker in his costume. Our first stop was Grandma and Grandpa Petersons were we had the famous Ham chowder :) that we all love.

The next stops were to visit the great grand parents, they both were happy that we stoped by.

This year was Rykers actual first experience of going door to door to trick-or-treating !! he had a good time doing it with his cousins Paige and Isaac this year we were so glad that they made it up from St.George to go with us :)

I was so thankful for the good weather we had !!! It was nice that Ryker didn't have to wear his heavy winter coat over his costume this year :)

Our Family Pictures

It's that time again for family pictures . A BIG thanks to a friend of mine Jen Stafford for doing them for us. They turned out really good we love them !!!!! thanks again =)

Now I can get going on my Christmas greeting cards LOL !!!

{ Grandpa Sam }

I just wanted to take a minute and talk about my grandpa Jorgensen. He turned 82 in August and is still going strong. This picture was taken last Friday after his brother Glens funeral. Grandpa Sam was the youngest of 9 children there were 6 boys and 3 girls. Out of all 9 children the only ones left are my grandpa and 1 sister Arlene in Arizona.

I have a lot of memories of my grandpa when I was younger. I remember one out of the many sleep overs I had riding with my grandpa in his old orange truck down to the old cash saver gas station to get gas in his truck and he would tell me to stay in the truck while he went in to pay. Grandpa would always bring me back a treat and it was always the individual wrapped pink bubble gum. To this day every time I eat that particular gum the taste always reminds me of grandpa Sam.

My grandpa when I was younger called me goldie because of my blond hair. Now days he calls me and my sister Blondie even though we both have dark hair:) oh well it's still cute !

Grandpa Sam is a big time story teller ...when we go to visit he has one story after another and a lot of them are of when he was younger so I love to hear them.

Grandpa Sam we love you :)

MORE CAMPING :)

I was looking through my pictures and realized that I never posted our fun camping trip to Strawberry over the 24th of July. So alittle late but here it is.

Ryker had fun feeding this cute little pot gut Cheetos the funny part was they were Jalapeno flavor my favorite :) No wonder why he kept running off probably to find a drink LOL !



We were camping with my parents,grandma and grandpa Allan,my uncles Travis and Brad and there families and my sister Jill and Rylan. Our camping spots were on pavement so we took Rykers bike he had a good time riding the loop with his cousin Shayla.

On Saturday we went riding 4-wheelers with my family Chace,Ryker, my sister Jill and hubby Rylan and my mom and dad. We didn't go for a very long ride but we still had fun :)

{ Disneyland trip 2009 }

To Start off our Disneyland trip we went to Medieval Times Sunday night for dinner with Rob~Opal~Devan~Nicole~Kynlee~Baylie~Melanie(my mom)~Ryker~Chace and I.

We had a good time the food was yummy. Ryker Got into it and cheered for our knight it was so cute.


Back to Disneyland we come.... We came with Chaces Parents,His sister Hollie and her family and brother Devan and his family.

My mom came with us this time, it had been 10 years sense the last time she's been.

I love that Ryker loves the characters so much every time we saw one he wanted to go get a picture with them . We finally found Sully this time that made Ryker happy.

One of the days we went to Goofys kitchen for a brunch with the characters. Ryker got to dance with princess Jasmin he thought that was pretty cool. Then he said to us after that Jasmin's belly was naked! it's funny he's starting to notice stuff like that.

Ryker had to have a Peter Pan hat..I think he looks so cute in it.

This trip we could only get Ryker on splash Mt. one time he loves the ride but hates the drop!

My father in law Rob choose to ride on the very front of Splash Mt. when we went then it went Chace, me then my mom. Needless to say our boat was a little front heavy!!! and there for we all got soaked!!! but I think poor Rob got the most wet LOL !! when we were walking off the ride people were pointing at Rob because he was walking funny because of how wet he was..

My sister Jill was there the same time with her husbands family so we got to hang with them some of the time to so that was fun.

On one of the days we walked through the castle and there were 2 Disneyland workers asking if we wanted pixie dust sprinkled on us and we of course said yes so they sprinkled it on mine and my moms hair and then some on Rykers Mickey hat.

{ Better late then never }

I finally had Rykers 3 year old pictures done..with his Birthday being in February I wanted to wait till summer time to get them done out side for a change..I think they turned out really cute. My little boy is definitely growing up he looks so big in all these pictures. Thanks Teneal for taking them for us...We love them all

{Rykers First day of Preschool }

Ryker and his cousin Weston playing with play doe

Ryker was sooooo excited this morning when he woke up and I told him he was going to school today. The nice thing about it is his teacher is his Aunt Hollie.. and his cousin Weston is there with him to... Ryker and Weston got put in TIME OUT today because they wouldn't stop talking after Miss Hollie told them not to.. I had to kind of laugh because all Ryker knows when he goes to Hollies is to play so now he has to learn now what SCHOOL is all about . Hopefully next time will be better after I have a little talk with him.

{ Bow Hunt 09 }

Ryker was so excited to go hunting with his dad and when his dad had his camo on Ryker had to have his on to. I love these pictures of my two boys - I love you .
