Our Family Pictures

Beautiful Sunday Drive

Today after conference we went on a beautiful drive up Skyline Drive and down Farmington Canyon. The Fall leaves were beautiful. Here are some of the pictures from our drive.

My Boy Has a Huge Noggin

I know, I'm the meanest mom ever. I had to take a picture of Mason's head stuck trying to reach for the broom. I couldn't figure out why he keeps getting his head stuck, until we went to the doctor's office today for his one year check up and got his stats.

Weight:21.6lbs 27%, Height: 28 1/4 8%, Head Circ.: 48cm 89%

Needless to say, my boys got one huge noggin.

Happy Birthday Mason

Happy Birthday sweet Mason. How fast they grow. I can't believe it's been a whole year since this sweet boy joined our family. He is such a joy. He walks around all day with a huge smile on his face. He always brightens my day. Here are some of my favorite pictures of him.

Cruisin the Caribbean

We just got back from a cruise in the Caribbean. It was so fun. We had a blast visiting Jamaica, Grand Caymans, and Cozumel. Dan's brother Nathan and his wife Marianne went with us. It was so fun to spend time with them and get to know them better. Thanks Mom, Julie, and Kim for watching our kids. I could totally relax knowing that they were in good hands.

They had to reverse out route to avoid the hurricanes. I was worried, but we had good weather the whole time. Every Island we stopped at was beautiful. Here are some of our pictures.

Toilet Paper Fun

I can't imagine how boring my life would be without Mason in it. He always keeps me going. I have learned a lot by being his mom. Today I learned to just enjoy the little messes they make and be glad that they are entertained while you are quickly trying to get ready for the day. How could I get mad at that cute face?

OUr FaBuLOUs FoURth!!

Nathan and Breyman enjoying the parade.

I must say that we had a fabulous fourth. We started the day out with, of course, the Centerville parade. Sadie got so much candy. About halfway through the parade she stopped running after candy and just waited for the pieces that would land right in front of her. We ended up with a huge sack full of candy.

We then headed to the Carnival in, of course, Centerville. It was nice chillin at the park and seeing some old friends. There is nothing better, or better for you, than carnival food. Sadie loved her pink cotton candy.

To end our fourth of July festivities we headed up Millcreek canyon for a yummy picnic. It was so fun to visit with family. We were going to end our day with Davis fireworks, but we were all tired and decided to head home for a little rest and relaxation. I love the fourth of July. It's so much fun to watch your kids as they watch the parade. To see the excitement in their eyes. I'm thankful to live in such a wonderful place where we can enjoy so many freedoms.

Mason's 9 month pictures

For the life of me I can't figure out how to put Mason's pictures on my blog. After trying for hours and neglecting my children I've given up. If anyone is interested in looking click on the rectange just below the title. Just put in my name Jamie Allred as the costumer name. Crazy I know. I hate computers. If anyone has suggestions on how to get them to my blog. Please help.

Naked Baby Mason Pictures

I just love naked baby pictures. I just can't take enough. Mason will probably hate me one day for all the naked pictures I have taken of him. Oh well.

My Birthday

Dan bought me a new mountain bike for my birthday. I love it. It is so fun to go for rides with the whole family. We went on a bike trail in Syracuse near my mom's house. Mason and Sadie had huge smiles on their faces the whole time. Sadie yells to her dad to go faster and faster. I tell him to slow down. I can't wait to go on more fun bike rides with my family.

This is the Place

MY MASON

With all the rain we've been having lately I've been kinda grumpy. I'm glad I have a little Mason in my life to brighten my day. How can you stay grumpy when this boy smiles at you?

The Zoo

Sadie has been begging us for days to go to the Zoo. We finally gave in. It was the perfect time of year to go. Not to hot and not to crowded. Sadie says her favorite part was the monkeys. Dan likes the monkeys also, especially the ones with the funny looking bums. I liked the giraffes.

I Got Tagged!

Rules: List six favorite things....Then list who you want to tag.

I love so many things how can I list only six? Here I go.

#1 I love the outdoors. Camping, hiking, snowboarding, and wakeboarding. What can I say.. I'm my father's daughter. I was born to pee in the woods. Plus when you're in the mountains it's o.k. to burp as loud as you want.

#2 Scrapbooking. I know it's kinda nerdy, but I love it. Dan would say I like buying the stuff more than scrapbooking. Whatever, I like it all. I can embellish anything.

#3 Family. I love spending time with my family. I'm totally myself around my family, and can you believe it, they still love me. We sit around visiting, talking for hours about nothing. It's the best.

#4 What can I say I Love Sugar. Some of my favorites are SKOR candy bars, sugar babies, white chocolate covered pretzels, and almond rocha. MMMM, man do I love sugar.

#5 Sleeping. Anyone that knows me, knows that I love to sleep. Maybe it's because I work graveyards and loose a lot of sleep. I don't know but I love it. I get oh so grumpy without it or if I wake up before I get enough of it. I need my ZZZs or things get ugly.

#6 Chinese Food. Preferably from ABC mandarin in Roy. It drives Dan crazy, simply because he hates chinese food. I just can't get enough ham fried rice and eggrolls.

I'm Tagging: Annalee and Allison. (Can't wait to see what you love.)

Crazy Sping Day

Dan power raked our lawn today, and our all the neighbor kids had a blast playing in the grass. It was crazy, but it always is when all the neighbor kids show up.

Mason in Pink

So I woke up today to find Mason in pink. Yes, Dan, his own dad, had dressed him in pink. He said Sadie's jammies were closer. I never thought Dan would dress his own son in pink. Guess I was wrong.

Mom Allred's

Today after conference we went to Mom Allred's for a yummy dinner. Afterwards we fed the ducks and played taboo. Got to love conference weekend.
