BZZZZ

This little worker bee went buzzing around neighborhoods collecting honey(candy) for the Queen Bee(mom) Boy did he work hard!

One year old and wise too!

Riley was lucky enough to have two birthday parties! This is his first one. I can't believe how big my little baby is and that he is already 1 year old!!! This Riley's Birthday dinner..Spaghetti and meatballs his favorite!!

This is the cake /cupcake creation that all the guests at Riley's paty ate. If you look sideways you can see that it is in the shape of a one.

Opening presents,. He recieved soooo many wonderful things. Thank you everyone!

This was Riley's personal cake that I made. He loved it! Blowing out the candles

Having a little taste a little more He actually stuck his face into the cake..I of course didn't get it on camera!

Clapping because everyone was cheering for him

The proud parents Of course he needed a bath!

Thank you Aunt Rose for the party too I need your pics so I can post them!

This ones for the girls

I love my friends! If you are on the right side of my blog then I miss you and so glad that we are friends. If you are looking at my blog without letting your idenity know but we were once friends please let yourself known! I miss my old roomates and the fun we had, the memories we made, and the growing that we did together ( from the pizza that we would eat those late nights Lamb and Josko (is that discrete enough???:) I miss our late night chats. I miss our inside jokes. It's funny how you go from talking about boys to talking about your kids! I miss my girls in the BYU 75th ward... we had some great times besides having Bishop Crouch deliver most of our kids(not all though)we really bonded the way a ward is supposed to. I miss staying way after enrichment was over and talking about epidurals. I miss having"social group for our kids" three days a week! ( who are we kidding that was more for us!), Babcock ...I miss your meetings(a.k.a our catch up time )and your candy at the meetings. I miss my husbands friends wives too,because now their wives are my friends, we should all live in Oregon so our kids can grow up together(Washington is ok too:) I also miss all the women that acted as mothers to me (Stanton).I am so thankful for each one of you. You have each played an important role in my life and have helped me become the person I am today. I have so many GREAT memories with each of you and so blessed to have shared a little bit of this earthly life with you!

FREE!!!

Ok we are trying to find a dinning room table because ours broke on the move out here (very cheap table). Anyway I wanted to try Graigs list. Now you could call me graigslist illiterate. I stumbled upon a free section!!! Yes free!! Now many of you are probably snickering and thinking"duh" but this is amazing!!! For a second you think why would they give this stuff away?? They are kind..I'm not sure but it is for free!!! So if you haven't checked it out do!!!

Read below post first... sorry they are out of order

We went to go pick out pumpkins and this is the one Riley tried to "pick out" He has his Ohio State jacket on here. We have to support the local team I found the whole outfit at Once upon a child for 4 dollars!! Riley with his cup again. This is his new face that he makes it cracks me up!

Before his haircut

This is what happens if he stays too long in the toy box. he usually gets in a fight and the toy box wins.

Finally....

We are finally in our new place. It is so much more spacious than our last apt. Ryan started school two weeks ago so that keeps him pretty busy.Riley and I have been unpacking and tring to get all of the boxes out of the living room(ournext step is to remove them from the garage) We have been exploring the area. It is so diffrent than Rexburg. I never thought I woiuld say this but there is almost too much to do here! I love it though but i do miss my friends in Idaho.We decided to go to a family ward but I had to look really hard for families bigger than 4 or older than 30. It is pratically like our student ward except 2 times bigger! So it will be nice to get to know some people. Here is a little bit of what we have been up to. Also Riley finally got his first tooth at the end of Septemer He could walk at 9 1/2 months but didn't have one tooth until 11 months!!! Our little man with his new hair cut. Her doesn't look like a baby anymore:(

Riley likes to play with cups in fact better than all his other toys except for the potato masher but he likes to put the cup on his face and others as well. Also Ryan is wearing his new dental scrubs in this pic.

Riley discovered that he can get into his toys box he will chill in there for half an hour throwing stuff out and playing. There are more pics at the bottom post...

No Internet

We are finally getting the internet on Friday!! Thay are sooo slow here maybe because there are 60,000 people go to school here and they are started back school and need internet. Anyway I am at the library but soon I will update!!
