What We've Been Up To...

We went to Vegas in January so that Josh could go to the CES convention, we had a ton of fun! 

 Jaxon makes us laugh everyday with all the funny things that he does. Never a dull moment!

 We are loving the spring-ish weather we have been having and had our first campfire a few weeks ago. We also just bought us a travel trailer and can't wait to start camping and fishing!

 Somedays we have random photo shoots and capture the silly moments. 

 We play outside alot and Jaxon really likes to dress himself, hence the shorts with cowboy boots. 

 Josh took me out to Golden Spike for the first time in my life, even though it was pouring rain it was still a fun little family outing!

Lookin Good...

Things are lookin good around the Thompson house these days!! We finally got new windows and siding and I can not believe the difference, our house looks SOOOO much better!!! 

Before, nasty yellow wood siding that was peeling and just looked horrible. 

Front, half done. I considered leaving it like this just to see what people would say :) 

Not really :) 

The back, half done

It's also worth noting that it is super awesome to actually see out of our windows, the old ones had hard water stains all over them, they were awful. And our back door actually closes now without putting all your body weight behind it. Very nice!! 

The front is done!!! 

Now we just need to paint the door, you can't tell in the picture but it looks yellow next to the new white trim.

Oh and the shutters will be getting a fresh coat of white paint as well before they get put back up!  

East side all done. This side door will be getting a fresh coat of paint to. I see a lot of painting in our future, hopefully the weather cooperates. 

I will get a better after picture and post it. Our house finally looks as good on the outside as it does on the inside. I don't think I ever want to move!! 

Fishing

We went fishing at Newton Dam (10/8/10), it was a ton of fun!! Me & Jaxon were catching these little perch like crazy!! I even baited my hook and took my fish off!! Of course I was wearing gloves, I don't do guts!!

Jaxon showing off the fish that he caught all by himself!

Haha!!! You can barely see the fish in this picture that's how tiny they were.

Me & my little man warming up in the truck it was pretty cold that day!!

I just love his face :)

Oh This Boy!

This is the face you get when you tell a 2 year old to say cheese and show you his teeth :)

Catch Up Post

I am seriously slacking on this blog!! This is going to be a mighty long post! Here is what we have been up to since our last post. 

I may or may not have left my makeup down one day and this is the end result. Oops!!!!

July 6 2010

 We went to the zoo and Jaxon really did love it, he was so excited to see the elephants and the zebra's, to bad mom and dad didn't know that the zebra's were not there anymore! 

 We played outside ALOT, and loved it! 

 We shot the birds through the window :) 

 I love spending my days with this kid! 

 We went to Bear Lake and played on the swing set. 

 Jaxon experienced the beach for the first time and he loved it! 

My baby is 2!!!

I LOVE this boy SOOO much!!! I am so lucky that he is mine!!! We had a great party and are so lucky that we have great families nearby that make sure they are there to celebrate with us.

Jaxon's 2nd Birthday- CARS Style

Happy Birthday Jaxon

We love you so much and are so lucky that you are a part of our family. You are always such a happy little boy and we love to play with you. You are always learning new things and you keep us really busy but we would not have it any other way. You bring so much happiness to our home and we love you more than you could ever imagine. We hope you have the best day ever!!
