Putnam Reunion 2011

So I am way behind on posting, thanks to Tina for these pictures! Our family were the Vikings this year; it's so fun to look back at the pictures from the reunion of when I was a kid! We look forward all year to the reunion!

My brothers and in-laws....and my tough dad:)

The razor was quite the hit!

Down at the creek....we LOVED playing here when I was a kid! Thayne jumping to uncle Jake; he was quite brave!

Deer-In-The-Headlight!

I went to check on Thayne, given his past record of "experiences" in the garage, I have to check on him often. This is how I found him....he was convinced there was one more Popsicle in the bottom of the freezer! Too bad it was a package of jerky!

First day of Pre-school!

He thought this cucumber from the garden was so cool!

Enjoying the last few warm days.

Thayne and Carter playing dress up.

Summer 2011

Wow!.....Is summer really almost over? I guess with kids keeping you on your toes, time flies! I have to start with Thayne and rocks. Him and his b.f.f. Benjamin where suppose to be riding their bikes in the garage, not exactly what I found when I went to check on them. They had the gas tank lid off the four wheeler-Thanye being the boss he is (don't have any idea where he gets it:) is supervising-while Benjamin using the little gardening shovel is filling the gas tank up with rocks! Yes......all the way up! I just turned around and headed back in to the house and yelled "Cody". Luckily for the boys, Cody was in getting dressed to go to the temple (James and Amber where receiving their endowments and getting sealed to their kids the next week.).....so he didn't say too much. While on the subject of rocks......they are everywhere. Kaycee's diaper, our not so kid-friendly neighbors lawn and oh..... about 10 in my washer.

In the same week, I had Thayne's bed room window open airing his room out. I hear the water turn on outside..........go to check on him.......I hear..."Mom I'm trying to get it in my window". Yep water running in his room. Boys.Boys.Boys!

Sleep-overs with AvaTrying to take a nice Sunday picture of the fam......Cody not cooperating, me cutting his head off in the fuzzy picture and Thayne teaching Kaycee how to pull faces! LoVeLy!!

*If you look in the background......Cody is unloading the dishwasher!This girl finally got a stroller! Something about water and kids!It was so funny, the neighbor kid was over playing and says to me "Your baby has a lot of skin." (Meaning fat rolls:)Thayne loves to help in the kitchen and whips us up a smoothie almost everyday!Excuse MeThayne's partner in crime.....Benjamin. Grandma Jill said she wanted some veggies from our garden for her b-day so i decided to make soup. Thayne informed me you don't have soup on your b-day....you have cake. So we decided to make her a cake. He went outside and came in with his bike helmet on and said "it's so the cake wouldn't get on my head".Favorite spot to play.....not much sand left. I'm pretty sure most of it is in my house!Kaycee loves to listen to the nursery rhymes on the computer. Her favorite song is Old McDonald. When she wakes up I hear "EIEIO" coming from her crib.I love her eyelashes....defiantly go the luscious lashes from her dad.And that's a wrap.
