Woody the Cowboy

This was Brandon's Halloween costume. He still wears it all the time. As a matter of fact I have to hide it in the back of his closet or we end up out in public with it on. Oh well look how happy he is!

Finally...

We tried to have Aaron blessed at least three times but schedules, family emergences, and weather all seemed to keep getting in the way. Finally I decided to do it while we were in Oklahoma. As you can see Aaron is not in white. I brought his little outfit but it was about four month sizes to small! We couldn't get it buttoned. So he looked very handsome in his regular church clothes. It was really neat to have my husband, my dad and many of my uncles standing in the circle. Chris gave Aaron a beautiful blessing and I am so glad we finally got it done.

Merry Christmas 2009

Isn't Aaron Patient?

Christmas Eve at Grandma Hess's

Go Cougars!

Vegas Vacation

Chris's buddy Landon invited him to go to the Las Vegas Bowl. He was so glad that he went, even though it was freezing cold and SUPER windy. After the game he got to meet, take pictures with, and get autographs from all of his favorite players. The little guy in the middle of this man-wich is Mike, who split the gas from Provo and back, and up top is Chris with Harvey Unga, the team's star running back.

Baby Aaron

I just wanted to update the pictures of Aaron. He has super bad baby acne. I tried to use my cool blemish eraser tool but it didn't really work. Oh well. I love his little smile!

Brandon's Gingerbread Train

Every Year Grandma Hess and Brandon build something out of gingerbread. This year they made a super cute train. Brandon had a blast decorating his little train. Thanks Grandma!

Our first date- Post Aaron

From the 7th row we could hear everything. Rafter seats will no longer do.


Check me out! I never catch anything at games. I think it is because I am to short.However, this was my lucky night and I snagged what I thought was a parachuting burrito. Luckily I was wrong- it was a shirt. To big for me but nevertheless my prize.



Just a little piece of the action. The Jazz lost but we had a great time anyways.

Brandon is the best big brother!

Both of my boys have beautiful blue blue eyes.

Pumpkin Pictures

So I decided to put Aaron inside of a pumpkin and take his picture. He hated it! I tried to do it while he was asleep. The worst part was when he put his arms inside of the pumpkin. I had no idea how I was going to get him out. I couldn't just lift him by the head. I thought I would need to cut him out. Luckily I got his arms out and lifted him up very easily. Brandon was not to impressed by the slimy seeds. He got a spoon and tried to help that way but I couldn't get him to stick his hand back in the pumpkin. That's my best helper!
