Ryan's Birthday

October is Birthday Extravaganza at our house! Grandma and Grandpa Tuft came to visit a week ago and of course brought presents for the birthday kids (I'm still a kid, right?) It was fun to have them come over. We also got to meet my little brother Brad's fiancee, Eve. What an eventful weekend!

We celebrated Ryan's birthday this weekend. It's sad to think that he's no longer my baby. He's still a little guy, though. A little guy packed full of energy and personality!

Here's the birthday cake. We went with a fire engine theme. And you can laugh all you want - it didn't quite turn out as well as I wanted it to. I was trying to get it made with a 3-year-old hovering over my shoulder and trying to do everything in his power to "help." I was also informed that the wheels are a little misplaced, but what are you going to do?


Here's the tasting of the cake. Mmmm...frosting.




And here's the happy boy.

The Great Pumpkin

We went to the Red Barn in Santaquin with Kevin's family. Matthew loved the fact that we were riding to the pumpkin patch on a trailer pulled by a tractor.

Ryan thought the ride was great, but he really wanted to get down and play with the straw.


We had a fun time picking out our pumpkins and then went to Kevin's sister's house for pizza, treats, and birthday celebrations. Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Tams for the gifts!

Disneyland and Birthday Albums

I finally created the web albums for our Disneyland trip and for Amy and Matthew's birthday. Of course we have too many pictures for the blog so you will have to follow the links to see the pictures.


For all you parents with little boys did you read that Disney will be adding on to California Adventures and creating a 12-acre "Cars Land" inspired by the Disney/Pixar film cars. It sure will be interesting to see what it turns out to be.

Happy Birthday - Amy, Matthew, and Ryan

October is a busy month for Birthday's in our families. Last week we celebrated Amy's Birthday, this week we will celebrate Matthew's, and we will celebrate Ryan's birthday next week. I will post some pictures soon from Amy's party and Matthew's it was a great day. Last week we also welcomed two new cousins, Logan and Ethan. They were born at 24 weeks and both are doing fine.

Disneyland pictures

Here are some quick pictures "Live" from Disneyland. We have a few really funny stories and some awsome pictures. We will tell you more about the trip when we get back home to Utah. Until then. Enjoy the pictures.
