Diablo 3 and Logan Trip

Paul and my brothers Teddy and Shane had been counting down the days until Diablo 3 came out for a long time.  When it finally came out, they all met at our house for a big Diablo Party.  I love these boys to death, but I wasn’t going to hang around for this party. 

We enjoyed pizza and treats with them that night, and then early the next morning Porter, Kaden and I left for a fun filled day while they stayed at home and enjoyed their game.  First we headed to Willard Bay and spent a couple of hours playing in the sand and lake.  Kaden slept most of the time and Porter had so much fun.  He could play for hours just with his sand toys.

Then we drove the rest of the way to Logan to visit Natasha and Colby.  We were so excited to spend some time with them because we aren’t able to see them as often as we would like.  We had so much fun hanging out with them.  We played at the park and had a blast.  Porter was in heaven having so much attention from Tasha and Colby.  They are always so much fun!!

Cute little Kaden swung on a swing for the first time.  He was so darn cute and seemed to like it.

I think we would all agree that the highlight of our park visit was watching Porter do his flip over the big ball.  It was so hilarious we all couldn’t stop laughing.  I think I need to put him in gymnastics or something.  He cracks me up!!

Natasha and Colby are the best!!   We need to take day trips up to Logan to visit more often!  Thanks so much for such a fun day guys!!  We love you both to death!!

Here’s cute little Kaden barricaded on Tasha and Colby’s bed for nap time..haha!

I LOVE MY SISTER!!!!!

We were so sad when we had to leave to go home.  While driving on the freeway on our way home, all of a sudden our car started wobbling like crazy.  I pulled off the freeway and noticed that our tire was COMPLETELY flat!!  Luckily, we weren’t that far from home.  I called Paul and he came right away to change my tire for me.  Thank goodness for awesome hubbies!!  Here is Porter and I waiting for Paul in front of the gas station.  Little Kaden stayed asleep in the car. 

We were really close to the airport and Porter was so excited to see all of the airplanes fly by.  He kept saying, “WOW Mom, another cool airplane”.

Here’s our poor tire!!!

Thanks for coming and saving us Paul!

And that was our eventful day!

Kaden’s Baby Blessing Weekend

What a beautiful blessing weekend we had for Kaden.  We were so blessed to have Kaden’s Aunt Cerra stay with us for the weekend visiting from Arizona.  Porter was in absolute heaven the whole weekend getting lots of attention from his Aunty.  She is such a wonderful Aunt and we love her so much!!!  Porter still asks, “Can Aunt Cerra come and play today?”

We were also so blessed to have Kaden’s Grandpa and Grandma Craven stay with us from Boise, Idaho.  It had been way too long since last time, and it was so much fun catching up with them.  It was also the first time they met Kaden, so it was great for him to spend some time with them.

Porter got lots of Grandpa one on one time and had so much fun with him. 

Thank you so much Cerra, Doug and Dorothy for coming for Kadens blessing.  It was so much fun spending time with you guys.  We love you so much.

We also had a couple of other visitors come and spend some time with us that weekend.  My cute nieces Hayley and Brooklyn 

and Grandma Rasband.

I think we were all having a little too much fun!!

The day of the blessing went perfect!  Paul gave an absolutely beautiful blessing and little Kaden had so much support from our wonderful family.  I am so incredibly thankful for a husband that holds the priesthood and is worthy of blessing his children.  It is the most wonderful thing for me as a wife and a mother to watch my husband bless our children.  Not everyone has that.  I am so thankful for Paul.

Kaden looked so adorable in his little blessing outfit.  What a beautiful little boy!!

Kaden is so lucky to have so many wonderful people that love him and were there at the blessing to support him.  Here are a few.

We have the most wonderful friends and family.  A great big huge thank you to all of you that helped make Kaden’s baby blessing so wonderful.  We are so thankful for each and every one of you and love you so much.
