 seriously they are nuts.

 becky, avery and drew.

 joe is over compensating for his lack of boys.

 any chance avery got.

he would go drive the boat.

 haha also this is his "mom you are crazy if you think i'm going to sleep" face.

 one can try right.

 powell is so good.

 i just want to remember these little details forever.

 my sweet little boy.

 then the crazy cliff jumping starts.

 drew is all about the back flips.

i think he's pretty cool.

 best daddy.

 chloe lady.

 avery is a little glasses thief.

 hahahaha and then me and drew got remarried.

 or more should i say reenacted? 

so not true.

but it was oh so funny.

 henry's cute little scrunchy face.

 each three months apart.

 addi was so funny she insisted on fishing.

the second the fish was right by her she was about ready to jump overboard.

 grandpa and avery.

 relaxing.

 i love this.

cutest little hen joe.

 avery boy loves spagetti!

 bentley, avery and henry.

 all a little boy could ask for.

 so proud of their fish catching.

 also grandpa may have had crazy hair the entire trip.

 like seriously look how big.

 and avery of coarse had to touch it.

 then we got real fancy.

 can't decide on our favorites. 

 drew can take credit for these, he did awesome!

 so fun.

 don't worry we had one more day.

 hahaha so much fun this bucket.

 pro wakeboarder.

that one time my husband surprised me 

with the fact that we are going to disney land next year!

it was so cute.

and we are very excited.

just thought i'd share :)

bear lake.

 oh bear lake.

and cute cousins.

the boys loving on their chairs.

and well i'm a real healthy mom.

my child has a pop tart in most these pictures.

avery sure loves his carbs haha.

 each year drew's family..

and i mean WHOLE family head up to bear lake for a reunion.

this is actually where me and drew met.

hahahaha i'm sure you have herd the story.

none the less no we are NOT RELATED.

i just happen to go up with one of his cousins.

who knew my 18 year old self would find her future husband.

the rest is history!

 these are my people guys.

 avery, henry and jamie.

 bear lake is quite pretty.

and quite cold.

 we clearly go into full relaxing mode.

 also each year they have a penny scramble.

the kids get so excited it's cute.

digging for little treasures in the sand.

avery is very new to the concept. 

 playing and eating on the beach.

oh and drew came up with a fun tradition of taking a family photo on the tower each year.

quite the trick if i do say so myself.

and he did all the hard work.

best husband.

fourth.

 cutest boy in all the land.

i just like holidays.

they are fun.

and the fourth has been especially fun these past few years.

we have front row seats to the parade and a little bbq.

and it's just been a fun tradition.

 my cute boys watching the parade.

 grandpa and his little guys.

also i love it because we go to kyler and chelsies.

who live on center street.

and all the grandparents come.

she even lets me bring my side of the family:)

 henry and patti.

 hawks crew.

 also i know this picture is ridiculous.

but i wanted to document that i was 15 weeks pregnant.

and avery boy is 15 months old.

 this story behind this afghan.

is that we use to mock it.

but now will quite possibly be sad when it's not with us next year haha. 

 boys, babies and fireworks.

 basically we play with kyler and chelsie all day long.

it's the best.

 finished off the night with a little fireworks.

slash sparkers which i might add are my favorite.

 baby guy watching the neighbors display.

you better believe we didn't let that glow stick go.

 then we decided to get all fancy.

drew was having fun with exposure!

i love this one.

and all it's imperfections.

also i know this is really quite hard to tell.

but i wanted a silhouette photo.

i envisioned fireworks behind.

but they come as they please.

but i still think it's quite cool.

thanks baby.

announcement.

 baby number two is coming!

in a just a little over 20 weeks.

it's getting crazy.

we announced a while ago.

i am just behind.

none the less here are my pictures of mister avery.

he was so excited to take pictures to help me announce haha.

 i loved this wall.

avery loved the rocks.

 it's becoming nearly impossible to get a decent picture haha.

 but don't worry he's got this modeling thing down.

 we finally settled on sitting and not touching the book.

and i had the hardest time deciding between this sweet face.

 and mister stinker bottom.

 this one won haha it's just too good.

all in all avery you did good.

thanks for helping a mama out:)

second.

 that time i told drew and avery i was pregnant..

haha one of my friends did this with her husband and baby.

so i thought it would be cute.

of coarse avery didn't know what was going on.

it was more for drew.

but his face is priceless.

haha i just think he is so cute!

first he was like what i have to leave.

then it's like he understood oh you just mean i have to give up my crib.

clearly i'm making my own captions.

anyways we're pretty excited!
