Trick or Treat

On Halloween we had Jeana, Rob, and Brooke over for dinner. After dinner we went trick or treating together. Trevor and Brooke loved it! Trevor loved it so much more this year than last year. He would actually knock on the door and when it opened usually say "...treeeat" and "than you!" (he had to be prompted, but he said it.) It was so cute. Brooke was Cinderella and Trevor was a monkey! Here they are ready to go...

Here we are (mom, dad and Trevor) ready to go. I really love this picture! Nick is acting like a monkey which is very fitting because for the last few weeks he and I would always ask Trevor "what does a monkey say" and we would look like Nick in this picture. Trevor did get pretty good at acting like a monkey .

Brooke and Trevor in action!

After we got done trick or treating, Trevor helped dad light the pumpkins...

...and mom hand out the candy!

Here he is looking over all the goodies he got. He can't wait for next year!

Pumpkins

The Monday evening before Halloween (October 26) Nick, Trevor and I decided we should go get pumpkins from the pumpkin patch by our house for our family home evening activity. So did a lot of other people. It was pretty busy and a little chilly but Trevor helped us pick out some great pumpkins.

Here he is amid all the pumpkins...oh so many choices...whichever one will he choose?

And the winning pumpkin is ...
This is the pumpkin Trevor came to love and carry all around the house for the next 5 days--

This pumpkin was just his size. He loved it.

That same week, on Friday night, we decided that we should carve our pumpkins. We actually got Trevor a little bigger pumpkin to carve but I decided to let him paint it instead. He loved it.
Look at the concentration on his face! After he painted his pumpkin he helped Nick and I carve ours. He wasn't really sure about what to think about gutting the pumpkin at first. He put his hand in my pumpkin and said "yew" but by the end I think he liked it enough.

But from this picture with Nick you wouldn't think so.

Trevor and Mom with all the finished products!
After we got all done we lit the two bigger pumpkins so Trevor could see what it looked like. He loved that part he went around the house and turned off all the lights. And after we looked at them he loved blowing the candles out!

Wee Witches at Gardner Village

On October 1 Jeana and Brooke decided to take Grandma Bird (Beverlee and Randy were in town visiting) to Gardner Village to Wee Witches Weekend. They invited Trevor and I to come along. Since it was spur of the moment for Trevor and I, Trevor isn't in his costume. We still had a lot of fun! Thanks for inviting us! Brooke and Trevor ready to go. They had a lot of different things the kids could do. One was dancing up on the stage. Brooke took Trevor by the hand and pulled him up there. She knew what to do, she is one great little dancing. Thanks for helping him out Brooke and showing him the ropes.

Trevor wondering "What am I doing up here?" I love this picture

The kids could go on a witch hunt to find all the witches there. Trevor and I just got are picture with one of them. Maybe next year we will go on the witches hunt!

They had a hay bale maze. Brooke and Trevor loved it.
Here is Trevor in the maze trying to see if he can find his way out!

Trevor loving the maze!

Here we are...we found the exit!


They also had a bean bag toss. Trevor made it into the basket and got a sucker. Great Job!
We had a great time. We look forward to next year!

Heath's Wedding

On October 13th Nick's brother Heath got married. It was fun to be with family and to celebrate this day with them. Everything was beautiful: the bride, the reception, and even the weather.

The happy couple.

Our happy family outside the temple waiting for pictures to start.
Trevor in front of the fountain outside the temple. He LOVED this fountain. He ran around it, sat by it, and tried to play in it. You couldn't pull him away from it and if you did he wasn't happy! I just love Trevor in his tie and suspenders! What a cutie!

August Update...

August Update: Here are some things that we did this August, they are out of order...but enjoy!

Trevor loves his stuffed animals. One afternoon at the end of August, we spent a good 30 minutes just lining up his animals on the stairs it was so cute!

Also, at the end of August or beginning of September I can't remember exactly Nick and I took Trevor up to Tible Fork in American Fork Canyon and went fishing. We had a great time. Trevor fished a little, played in the dirt and threw rocks in the water. We were there probably about 2 hours and we were getting near the time to go and still hadn't caught a fish...but then Nick cast his line in and hooked one, Trevor helped reel it in. It made the trip worth it (okay it was still fun, but catching the fish made it that more fun)!!! We don't have a picture of the fish, but we got it on video. We told Trevor to touch the fish and he tried but chickened out. It was a great Saturday afternoon.

Trevor playing in the dirt.

Dad and Trevor right after the big catch. Way to go Dad and Trevor!!

Dad and Trevor fishing. I love this picture.

August 23rd was Nick's 30th Birthday!!! I had planned a surprise fishing trip with just he and I on Saturday but as we were on are way to Provo to have Cyndi and Brad watch Trevor, Nick had a kidney stone attack. Happy Birthday to him. We stayed at Cyndi's house the whole day while Nick slept, threw up and was in pain. I am sure this will be a birthday he will not forget. But on Sunday he felt a lot better so we had family over for dinner (lasagna his favorite, his mom made it--thanks Cyndi) and cake and ice cream and opening presents. (Nick passed the kidney stone about a week later! Yeah!!)

Nick and Trevor blowing out the candles!

Middle of August...Nick and I got Raging Water passes this year. It was a lot of fun! Jeana and Rob got ones as well! So Jeana and I would take Brooke and Trevor doing the day with a lunch and we would spend the morning... and they loved it! A couple of times Nick and I went and these pictures are of the last time we went before it closed. I wasn't able to go on any of the slides because I am pregnant, but Nick could take Trevor on two of them and he loved it!

Here is Trevor ready to go!

Here are the two slides Nick could take Trevor on! Yep that is Nick and Trevor at the bottom!

Mom and Trevor

Trevor going down the slide in the kids section! He fell in the water, but he loved going on this one as well. He loves getting water splashed in his face. We hung out in this section the most. Trevor also loved the lazy river and the splash pad. He just loved running under the water and getting wet.

Dad and Trevor ready for the water!

August 12th--My Mom and Dad came into town to celebrate their 35th wedding anniversary! They were sweet enough to hang out with Jeana, Brooke, Trevor and I for the afternoon. We went to Liberty Park and had lunch and played in the water and rode some carnival rides. It was a great afternoon. (side story...when Trevor gets really upset and has a cough he will throw up. Well, this afternoon was no different on the way to Liberty Park he throw up in my car. It was gross. I am pregnant and had to clean up the mess so I throw up as well. It was a pretty funny sight to see. My car smelt like throw up all day. Oh the memories)

My Mom and Dad...35th years of happiness.

Liberty Park has a few carnival rides that Brooke and Trevor got to ride. Thanks Mom and Dad for taking them. Trevor on the carousel.

The Zoo and Jumping Jacks

We were able to go to the zoo a couple of times this summer. Thanks Liz for letting Trevor and I go with you and Macey this time (September 27). It was so fun to see the baby elephant. Trevor loved that the baby elephant was playing with a ball.

Trevor loves the zoo. His favorite things to do are the train ride and the carousel. He LOVES the carousel. We can't wait to go back next summer.

Trevor was also able to go to Jumping Jacks with Macey and Camden. Jumping Jacks has inflatable blow ups that the kids just bounce/jump on. Liz found this great coupon that got them in for free. Thanks Liz for inviting us. Trevor loved it. I got a little nervous when he wanted to do the huge blow ups...but he did great I think he only got hurt/cried once. We had a great time and look forward to going back.

Liz thanks for a couple of these pictures!

Here is a picture of Jenn and Rockne on their wedding day!

Here is the Wadsworth Family

Here is a sister's picture.
Trevor and I went down with Jeana and Brooke at the beginning of the week to help with the wedding plans. The Monday we got there it was Labor Day so we went to George and Sharon's house for a BBQ. It was great to see everyone. All of the counsin's kids played so well together it was fun seeing them running and playing outside. The rest of the week we did wedding plans.
Rob and Nick come down on Friday because they had to work all week. On Friday we were able to meet Rockne's family at a picnic at the park. Then Jenn and Rockne got married on Saturday. It was a busy filled week. Everyone did so much to make this wedding turn out beautiful. This is a wedding day we will never forget. Jenn got married in Milich's back yard and it was amazing. Nick and Trevor just stayed for a few pictures and the wedding and then went back to Grandma's house to rest.

Trevor got really sick on Tuesday while we were there visiting and was sick for the next 10+ days. He was a trooper. He had a fever, couldn't breathe very well, throw up, coughed...you name it he probably had it. He didn't do much expect lay around and watch movies with mom and dad. We were nervous we wouldn't be able to come back on Sunday but Sunday morning we woke up and we thought his fever was gone. It was gone just long enough for the car ride and then it came back for about another 6 days. He was on really sick little guy.

Here is a picture of Mom, Dad and Trevor. Just look at the picture, Trevor was so sick.
