Trick or Treat

Rayden decided he wanted to be a Ninja Turtle and a Power Ranger. On Tuesday he wore the Ninja Turtle costume to his Halloween party at Preschool. His class went trick-or-treating at the Court House and he came home with so much candy! On Halloween night he decided he wanted to be a Power Ranger! We went to the trunk-or-treat at the church but didn't stay long. Mommy didn't feel good and Daddy was being a "party pooper" as usual. Rayden enjoyed it though! He keeps going around the house with his candy bag saying trick-or-treat!

Celebrate!

Mommy is so excited for Rayden to be a big brother!!! We are expecting another little one in June next year!!!!

Go Utes!

Rayden is getting a head start on being a Utes fan. Randy is wanting to attend Graduate school at U of U next fall so Rayden is cheering him on!

Silly Rayden!

I Scream, You Scream, We all scream for ICE CREAM!!

We got an ice cream cone at Shae's Place after the parade! It was so yummy!

Parade!

This is Rayden's first parade! He is the one in the black shirt in the top picture! It was the homecoming parade for the Gallatin Bulldogs and Rayden rode on a trailer with all his preschool friends. They are all the future Gallatin Bulldogs! Actually Rayden most likely will not be a Bulldog because we don't live in that school district. But that is a long ways down the road, so who knows?

GOBBLE MAN

Okay, I got this idea from the LDS Living magazine to help teach my family how to clean up after themselves. I made up the poem in just a few minutes so don't laugh, I know it needs some work but you get the point. The idea is that every night the Gobble man or gobble bag comes out and eats up all the toys/papers/shoes or whatever is left lying around. You don't get your stuff out of the gobble bag unless you earn it back! I haven't quite figured out exactly what you have to do to earn it back, but I'll let you know when I do.

School

Rayden started preschool this week. This picture was the first day of school. He was so excited and being way silly. Of course we had cold cereal so we wouldn't be late. Mom forgot to take the camera to school to get a picture at school but maybe we'll get one later. His new teacher is Mrs. Michener. He can't really say her name but he'll learn it! He is getting so big I just can't believe it! He even got to sign (scribble) his own name on the check-in roll!

SHADES!!

Rayden was being really funny and trying on my cool glasses! Doesn't he look great?

Gardening!

It is very relaxing in the country and we have begun to experiment with gardening just recently. However, I think Rand got a little carried away this year. We can't give away the produce fast enough! Luckily mom and dad Bytheway came out to help us can a bunch of food!

Oceans' of Fun!

Look at Me!!!

Rayden had so much fun riding the water slides at the water park! Every summer we go at least once and every year as Rayden gets older he has more and more fun! This year Grandma and Grandpa Bytheway and Aunt Tristin went with us to the water park. It was so much fun!
