Bring on Summer Time

Time is cruising by and we are happy to be getting into summer and loving life. We have had a few fun events lately and it seems we are always staying busy.

 A couple weeks ago Shaye took Peyton to the evening activities of our wards Father's and Son's outing. It turned out to be a great evening for all of us. Peyton had a great time playing out in the dirt and being with his Dad. Plus I got to enjoy a girls evening out and went to a movie with a friend. Peyton is here enjoying some cornbread around the camp fire.

 This is Peyton and I on Mother's Day. I am so very thankful for Peyton and feel very blessed to be his mother. I love hearing him call for me around the house saying Mommy! I love watching him learn and grow and figure things out. He is starting to talk so much now and it is so fun to listen to him, he keeps us laughing all day! Thank you Peyton for making me a mother, I love you more than you'll ever know!!

 This is just a funny picture. Shaye was laying on the couch reading a hunting magazine and Peyton decided he really wanted to read it too. So I watched as he climbed up and squeezed his way onto Shaye's lap and got in just the right spot to look at all those big deers!!:)

Our next adventure took me and Peyton down to Palm Springs for the weekend. It was a last minute trip and I couldn't believe I was going to go. I really probably would not have gone but Shaye just kept telling me to go and said there was no reason for me not to go. My Aunt Lori had invited my mom to join her for a last minute trip and so my mom asked if Peyton and I would like to drive down with her. So with Shaye's encouragement we decided to go and I'm glad we did!  The resort we were at was really nice and was very kid friendly so Peyton had a blast!!

 Of course any trip wouldn't be complete with out a good nap in the stroller:)

 The first morning we went for a nice walk around the resort. It was so big it was like a little city. It was beautiful weather and the scenery was fabulous!

 Here's Lori and I. I guess my mom was trying to get more of the flowers than she was of us:)

 Peyton was a great little traveler and he loved being in our condo. He had all sorts of new doors to open, rooms to explore and trouble to get into:)

 He loved enjoying his breakfast every morning at the table.

 Ha ha, are you loving my hat?! It was so hot there and I decided to wear one of my mom's hats one day to get some relief from the sun. Peyton loved playing with Aunt Lori and Grammy in the pool, he couldn't be bothered to pay attention to any picture taking.

 Peyt playing in the fountains. It was so funny to watch him try to close to the fountains without getting sprayed too much in the face.

 Here he is out on our back patio watching for ducks, airplanes, birds, butterfly's and whatever else might happen by.

 He loved waving hi to any workers that passed by on there golf carts and then he'd say bye bye.

 One last trip to the pool before we headed home on Monday. It was really fun but it was getting hotter everyday so we are happy to be back to a little bit cooler weather.

Thanks Mom and Lori for letting us come join you on your girls weekend. It was great fun and Peyton is still talking about the pool and his swim suit:)
