Soakin up the Sun!

It was so hot on Sunday(Father's Day) so we decided we would take Briggs' pool with us out to my parents so he could cool off. It was the first time he has used it and love, love, loved it.

Playin' away
Splashin' (he would get his little legs just a kickin')

Resting on his lawn chair, not for very long though

Playing with the hose!

I was so excited to get a picture of him looking and smiling, there are hard to come by lately. He just to busy to look most times.

So mad that he had to be done, he didn't care that he was freezing.

(look at those cold looking lips)

This post is kinda late but here are some pictures from Briggs' Birthday. We had a fun time seeing everyone, Briggs loved having everyone there. He didn't want to open all his presents though(totally spoiled btw), he had better things to do like playing with the ribbons,opened toys, or cousins. Needless to say the cousins helped him out.

CAKE TIME!!!

(dad and mom had to blow out the candle for him, he did try though just couldn't get enough air to the flame.)He is so ready to just dive in!

Laughin' it up

He was so tired, if it wasn't all over him and his face enough he started rubbing his eyes because he was tired. The next day his one poor eye was still red from getting frosting in it. He loved every minute of having everyone over. THANKS FOR COMING!!

OUTSTANDING DAD'S

WE LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
We would like our outstanding dad's to know how much we love them! You mean the world to us. You both have strong testimony's and a love for you families like no other. We couldn't have asked for better fathers. Thanks for everything you are.

I would also like Trent to know how much I love and appreciate the father he is to Briggs. He has a love for and thinks the world of his little boy. He does such a great job caring for and teaching Briggs, making sure mommy doesn't forget to do anything. He can't wait to see Briggs waiting in the window for him each and everyday squealing, jumping and pounding on the window. The two of them could hang out all day and never get bored or fed up with each other. YOU'RE AN AMAZING DAD!!!!

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!

We would also like all the other DAD'S in our lives to have a very

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

OUR LITTLE MAN

BRIGGS,

We can't believe how fast you've grown up, it seems like yesterday dad was making mom walk(hike) all over Box Elder Campground. We were so ready to have our little guy in our arms. We are so excited that you are finally one but at the same time we're sad that you're growing up so fast. You have brought so much joy into our home and hearts. You can light up any room and make people smile. You are very determined and know exactly what you want and how to achieve it. :) You love it when you accomplish new things and get so excited. Your giggle can melt hearts and you already have a way with the ladies. Whenever you hear music you start to dance. You can't wait till dad gets home from work, he has to play with you for at least 10 minutes or you get very upset. You have a love for everyone, you are starting to give kisses which we love(open mouthed-slobbery ones). Even at this age you are very caring if we are just playing around and you think daddy is hurting mom you start to cry and get mad, or if mom is crying for no reason you crawl over and want to give loves. We've enjoyed watching you hit every milestone in your life so far and can't wait to be there for many more. You have such a strong spirit and personality that will take you far in life. We Love you so very very much.

Just a few of the things we love about you:How you loved to sleep on our chest for the first month every night.

How you slept the first 4 months, our little frogThe MulletYour love for exploring, EVERYTHING
The "Cheesy Grin"How you know if it's from the mixer it's going to be yummy!

WE LOVE YOU!!!!

Love Mommy and Daddy!
