Family Pictures

We had family pictures taken in October 2011.

They turned out so cute, I thought.
My baby Jayden was such a pain. He would
not sit still and I couldn't get him to smile
for the life of me. Sounds just like his dad.

On the other hand my other son is just like
his mother. He could smile for the camera
all day long. He kept telling the photographer
to come take a picture of him, it was so funny.

We had beautiful weather that morning.

After we just let Jayden rome around
and do his own thing we finally
got some cute pictures of him.

My Jayden

Is that not the cutest picture. Your bumb

only looks that cute when your one.
Jayden and Drake play so cute together.
Drake is the cutest big brother.


My baby is walking, at 13 months he decided
to take off. He is now an even bigger menace
but we still love him to pieces.

Jayden loves his tractor toy. He rides and
pushes it all over the house.

He still gets into every drawer and cupboard in
the house, but nothing that we can't clean up.

Jayden loves to play in Drake's room. He goes
in there and climbs up on his bed and sings.
He must miss his big brother when he is gone.

Drake's 1st day of school. He loves the 1st grade
and is doing very well in class and on the bus.

He catches the bus with our neighbors Conner
and Justin Dockery.

California Trip

Jayden was hilarious at the airport. He crawled

around going a 100 mph for like an hour. He was

the entertainment for the people at the airport.

Drake was so excited to fly on the airplane since it
was his first time. He was so good on it also.

Jayden slept on the way to California so that
was good. Unfortunately on the way home
he was wide awake and a pain in the butt

for the whole flight.

It was a good thing I had a lot of people
there to take turns with.

Jayden was so cute, he climbed in the
suitcase with his bottle like he was ready
to take a nap in it.

We went to Fisherman's Wharf and walked
around the piers. Drake had to jump on the
tramp for ten bucks(not worth it) but he was cute.

Drake of coursed loved the boats and water.

Jayden was so cute, just hanging and
looking out the window.

Drake got to be the captain on the boat.
He got to drive all by himself and he
thought that was pretty awesome.

We ate at Bubba Gumps Restaurant which is
one of my favorite places to go.

Jayden was such a pill. He would pull all
the clothes out of the suitcase and then
climb in it to play. It was the best toy ever.
And of course a huge mess, but oh well

Gavin and Hayley got married in the Oakland Temple.
It was beautiful, so I took some new cute family pictures.

Their reception was is a friends backyard
and it was so pretty. I'm jealous and
want to get married again.

Aren't my cute boys so cute in pink!

Drake had to dance with the lovely
bride. Gavin better watch out.

Drake also caught the garter. My boys were
the party out the wedding, since they
were the only kids there.

Then we went to Water World. This is Drake's
favorite water park. It wasn't as big as the
one in Denver but it was still a blast.

The water was freezing so it took Jayden
a while to get used to it.

Drake loved the lilly pads. It is harder
than it looks believe me.

On the last day we took Drake to ride a Trolley.
And since it was some form of train, he loved it.
Thanks Grandma and Grandpa Johnson for
making this trip possible and a ton of fun.

Happy Birthday Jayden "Big #1"

Jayden had quite the birthday party. All of the

Johnson family attended along with a few

members of my family. Jared and I gave

Jayden the police coop car, and Jayden

loved it. He is the cutest thing ever.

Ya I know my kids are very spoiled. But I can
say that none of those presents are from me.

I can't beleive that my little baby is one.
I remember it like yesterday just being
in the hospital with him, crazy how time flies.

Grandma Sue gave him this stool, it spells
his name in different colors(I love that face).

Daddy and mini me.


Grandma Jean gave him the books and
a safari truck with animals in it.

Aunt Tamra gave him the baseball toy and
Uncle Gavin and Hayley gave him a bowling
ball and pins. Looks like the apple doesn't

fall far from the tree.

This is my favorite picture. That look on
his face is so precious.

He loved the cake and frosting. It
didn't take him long to get his
fingers dirty.

And of course big brother had to try some.
