Fun at the Park!















































































We're enjoying the nice weather at the Roy duck park! (that's what me and the kids call it) We love to go there and eat lunch and feed the ducks with my friend Jill and her two kids. The cute little girl is hers and Carter's girlfriend, he is so sweet to her all the time. The other one is Rex and I didn't get a picture of him (next time). He has red hair to and is Preston's friend. It's nice to get out and play!

Those were the answers right from his mouth. Preston is so smart! He loves numbers, he can count to 30 without help. He adds, and we're working on subtraction. He writes his name and a few other words without help. He just loves life and is curious about everything! He asks about 20 or more questions a day. He has a drive to learn and grow. He has a sunflower in a cup that he is growing and every morning he has to go see how much it has grown, it's like watching Preston grow right before my eyes too, he's not a baby any more! He's not even a toddler any more! He's growing so fast. He is a good big brother and is always looking out for him. He's a little bit cautious and that is a good thing. He's a great leader and we are very proud of him and the little man he is becoming.

Blessings

I just wanted to write about what a blessing it is to have a husband who hold the priesthood and can give a fathers blessing when asked. We were at my in laws and Carter has been having a really sore bum off and on for awhile. It was so bad when we were there he was screaming and I was crying because I couldn't do anything about it. Don't worry we will be taking him to see his doctor next week. He must be allergic to something and I'm tired of playing the guessing game. Anyway, I asked Jarrod to give him a blessing before we left. I don't know why I didn't think about doing it before, because I feel so much better now. Then I said okay Preston lets go and he said we can't go yet I didn't get mine. Jarrod said what do you need a blessing for and he said so I can stop getting sick with a cold. He has had his fair share of colds this year. So Jarrod gave him the sweetest blessing. He is such a good boy and what a blessing to have in are family, he is a great example to his little brother. I'm very proud of him!

The Deck Story

So a few of weeks ago the snow melted and there was a bunch of toys that Preston and Deacon threw off the deck before it snowed. So Preston wanted to go get them so I sent him out with a bag to go collect and Carter wanted to go to, but I wanted to finish cleaning the kitchen so I thought I would let him go out on the deck to watch because there was no stairs and I would crack the door so I could hear. I never imagined that Carter would actually climb up and over the top of the deck and jump! I heard a faint cry and Preston calmly yelling that Carter just fell off the deck. So I jumped down there and checked him over to make sure there was no broken bones! I think it's only a 10 foot drop but for a 1 1/2 yr old that is a long drop. Well, turns out he is fine and I had Jarrod's dad come give him a blessing since Jarrod was working in Provo that week. He moaned and groaned for the rest of the night but I think he is okay now.

I don't even know what to say except what a mess!!!! I was trying to figure out taxes and I knew they were up to something when things went quiet for a little too long. They are the cutest little stinkers though!

Christmas

It was so much fun! We only have memories on the camcorder because our camera does not take any more pictures. Preston loved all the trains he got from Santa. He was so excited that he had a hard time going to sleep Christmas Eve. You could tell he was tired, but would not give in. He loved the Porter Christmas Eve party. They did a dance competition, and he danced the whole time. I could not get him off the stage even when it was over. Carter wanted to open everything and he would take off a tiny piece of wrapping paper at a time and would throw it in the garbage until all the wrapping paper was off. I didn't think he would want to open very many, but he did. He got a Zebra that you can ride and he loves it. They both got snow gear and we went sledding Sat. I wish I has Pics of that to. Preston would go down all by himself!
