Sleepy Joye

This afternoon, the boys were playing outside, Me and Braden were reading books on the couch, and Joye was off exploring. She has decided it's lots of fun to go into a bedroom and shut herself in. Well she shut herself in the boys room and found Jaxon's piano. Me and Braden were listening to her play for quite awhile. I decided that I would go check on her, when I did this is what I found...
Joye had zonked out on the piano! Her arm was pushing on one of the keys hard enough and it just kept playing that same note over and over and again. After we laughed and took pictures of course, Braden picked her up to go put her in bed and apparently she had been asleep for quite some time...

You're pretty tired when buttons can leave indents in your head and it doesn't bother you enough to move.

And He's Off! For His 2 Year Adventure!

Elder Fessler left for the MTC today!

We took pictures of the kids so we can compare how much they grew when Jair gets back.
Jaxon and Uncle Jairon
Alek and Uncle Jairon
And finally Baby Joye and Uncle Jairon

We'll miss you Uncle Jairon, Love You- Jax, Alek & Joye

Good Luck Jairon! We'll all miss you so much. Be safe! You are in our prayers. See you in 2 years.

Our Lagoon Fun!

Before I start talking about Lagoon, I just have to say that yesterday was the primary program and the boys did awesome! I was worried that Alek was going to get scared and not do his parts, but he did! And Joye went into Nursery yesterday!!! She isn't supposed to go for another 2 months, but I talked to the nursery leader and she said it would be fine. Braden and I have our callings at the same time and Joye was more than a handful. Joye did great!! I took her in and they gave her a cookie and she was fine. She stayed the entire time and didn't cry once. YAY!

Now onto Lagoon. This post has a lot of pictures because the boys were watching me do it and they insisted that every ride that we had pictures of, had to go in the post. They kept asking why all the rides didn't have pictures. Well most of you know that Braden got a job!! He went into orientation on a Monday and they told him Friday was Lagoon Day! Perfect timing huh! Icon reserved the entire park. It was great, there were no lines, we walked onto every ride. The boys had a blast! The best part was on our tickets we could bounce back for 9 dollars. That's why we went back for our anniversary.

Here are the boys on the space ship with guns. The boys went on this one twice, and both times Alek rode so he went backwards.

Next was the boats.
Alek decided that he wanted his picture taken so from this ride on every time he went passed us on a ride he had the biggest cheese smile on. It was so funny.

I love these next 2 pictures.
This one is so cute

And this one Joye looks so enthused to be on the ride. She really did like it. She has one hand on the wheel and the other ringing the bell.

Helicopters!

And Airplanes

The boys wanted to go on Puff the Magic Dragon Roller coaster. I thought that Joye would like it so I took her on. I had forgotten how fast it really goes. Joye HATED it!! She kept trying to crawl up me. I love this picture. I hope she doesn't remember this and be terrified of roller coasters her whole life.

Wild Kingdom Train.

Joye hated the tunnel.

Music Express!

The boys very excited to be going on this ride!

Now they are rethinking their decision to come on this ride.

We started going around and Jaxon started slipping and he got scared. I told him to let go and slide into me and then he was a little better. Alek would not let go, he had a death grip on the bar and he didn't slide one little bit.

The Sky Ride
I was the lucky one and got to take the boys. Braden and I both hate this ride, but Alek insisted on going. I'm paranoid enough on it, but when the boys would try to look over I about lost it.

Scrambler!

And of course the Merry-Go-Round

Joye thought it was going to be another Puff ride. She wouldn't even sit there long enough for us to get a picture.

We had a blast!

Corn Dog Mishap!

The boys love to make their own food. I let them cook their own burritos and corn dogs. They go down to the freezer, put it in the microwave, push the buttons, while it's cooking they get their plates and get their condiments, then they sit down and eat. All by themselves!!! They think that they are so cool and big! Well today for lunch the boys were getting into their routine, and I was just letting them do it. I was in the living room not really paying attention, Alek was sitting on the floor waiting for his food to cool down, and Jaxon comes barrelling into the room screaming..."THERE IS SMOKE IN THE KITCHEN!! THERE IS SMOKE IN THE KITCHEN!! HURRY COME LOOK!" I haven't moved this fast in a while. I jumped up and ran into the kitchen, by the time I got into the hall the smoke had already filled it. Jaxon had opened the microwave to stop it but shut it again because the smoke scared him. I flung it open, expecting to find flames. I didn't, luckily, but then again I couldn't really see anything, because the smoke coming out was so thick. I ran to the windows and opened all of them, and turned on our stove fan, and went back to the microwave to see the damage. This is what I found...

Take note of the time. 89 minutes. WOW. And that's just what was left on the time.

I said, "Did you push the button twice?" and he said "No, it would only let me push it once." Someone had twisted the time button backwards, so instead of going to 1 or 2 minutes, it went to like 90 minutes. And he thought that it would be ok, because he only pushed it once. Well luckily everything was ok and the only thing hurt was the poor corn dog.

2 Years!!

It's mine and Braden's 2 year Anniversary! I can't believe that it's already been 2 years. Time flies when you're having fun!! I'm so grateful for Braden and all that he does for me and the kids. He is a great Daddy and Husband! This year Braden took me to Lagoon for our anniversary. We had so much fun. It was fun to get out just the two of us. I've posted some of my favorite pictures from our wedding!
