We took a mini vacation to Tempe, Arizona. James' good friend Jeff was getting married. We had a lot of fun we spent the morning at the Phoenix Zoo. Then later that evening we attended Jeff and Michelle's wedding.


10/25/09
We stopped at the Grand Canyon. Jakob really enjoyed it. He wanted us to read every sign and wanted his picture taken from every outlook.



We found a little deli on the way out of the canyon and told Jakob the name of the deli was called Jacob deli and he said we are going to eat at a deli named after me. My boys are so funny they make road trips so interesting.

Update

We have been pretty busy. My Dad is running for Mayor so we are doing our duty to help out. So here is a little update of what we have been up to.

We celebrated James' birthday on September 4th. Thanks to my mom and my younger sister Kelsey for watching the boys so James I could go out to dinner. It was nice to have a night alone.

Archer 7 1/2 months.

When your taking Archer's picture and the flash comes on this is what he does with his face.

James took the boys fishing they love going with dad.

First Day of School.......

Jakob's in 1st grade this year. He has been so excited to start school.

Family Reunion

James' family had a reunion at a cabin last week. It was a lot of fun. We went up a night earlier and took the boys camping. We roasted marshmallows (And lucky for us Jakob picked out strawberry marshmallows to roast to make into s'mores.) I would suggest not using strawberry ones but the boys didn't care what they tasted like they were getting sugar before bed. This was also Archer's first time camping and he was a trooper he slept through the whole night. (I love that baby)
Archer ready for his first night of camping.

The next morning we decided to go fishing before everyone else came up.

And have a picnic by the creek. The boys spent at least 2 1/2 hours throwing rocks into the creek.


We had a great trip:
