CRaZy TuRnS OnE!!!


This past Friday Ryan, or as I like to call him lately my little weapon of mass destruction, turned 1! I still can't believe he is that old-but I will say I am proud we have kept him alive that long-sometimes it scares me to realize how vulnerable he is and that I STILL have no clue what I am doing. We had such a great time and definitely felt the love and support of our family and friends at his party that night. Thanks to all who came and for your patience when the food showed up an hour and a half later than it was supposed to. We feel so blessed to have all of you in our lives and especially for the gift of having Ryan. He keeps us on our toes, but brings a joy into our lives that I never knew could exist. Happy Birthday Ryan!

P.S. As I was looking at the slideshow I realized that I should explain something. You may have noticed the beautiful (meaning discusting) thing on Pete's upper lip-He and his friends thought it would be great to form a club and all grow mustaches since they can at BYU. They even created a facebook group called the "Push brooms".

I was wondering why Pete was sporting a mustache! The party was fun and Ryan looked like he was having a blast.

That slide show was so fun. I can remember thinking what a huge accomplishment it was when Adelyn turned 1 and we were both living to tell about it. Congratulations! I can tell you're a fabulous mother.
