Cub Scouts Here We Come!!!

Our reign as the teachers for the Valiant 8 class has ended in Primary! We've known that it has been coming for awhile and today it was finally here!



Richard I'm sure is glad that today was our last day after this little incident! We were practicing for the primary program today. If your class sang really good and loud they would pick a teacher that would have to wear one of these hats! Of course they picked Richard to wear this cute little bonnet and yes I took a pic on my phone! I couldn't resist!!! We are done in the primary which is a little bitter sweet. I'm sad that I won't get to be there every week to see Trey sing and sit with all the little sunbeams, but I'm alittle glad that I don't have to be a full time babysitter anymore! But never fear we are moving on to bigger and better things like the Cub Scouts! Yes you read that right two very unscouty people are now going to the unknown! Richard is now the Cub Master and I'm the Advancement Committee ( I'm the only one on the committee by the way)! We went to our first Pack meeting last week to find out how everything works and next month Richard will be taking it all over! We are a bit nervous about it but I think that it is going to be lots of fun! Best of all is that we don't have to go to primary every week! Richard is going to be a great Cub Master and I'm going to try to be good at keeping records and getting awards! It's going to be a great time and I'm sure that Richard will not be having to wear any bonnets in the scouts!

Jack is 2!!!

My Baby Bair is two! I'm excited for him but I'm also sad because really he is no longer a baby he is a big boy! But regardless of my feeling towards him turning 2 it's here! We were trying to think of something fun we could do for him for his birthday so we decided to hit up the Hogle Zoo! We decided to go the day before his birthday because Richard had the day off so that way we could have his undivided attention! Jack was so excited to go! Unfortunately I discovered that I had forgot to bring the camera so the only pictures that I got were taken from my phone so enjoy the quality!

Finally at the zoo! Jack got those cool dude sunglasses the day before and literally didn't take them off the whole time we were at the zoo! He must have thought that the was a celebrity!
We went into this new exhibit called Natures Nightmares! There was bats on the ceiling, free flying bats! Richard was holding Jack up to see them!

This was our best attempt at getting the boys and me in a picture together!


Trey sitting in the big apes lap!

Richard didn't want to feel left out!

Seeing how big they were! Trey really liked that there were 4 Gorillas on here! Just like our family!

We had lunch and here is Trey eating the best Sandwich that he has ever had in his life! His word exactly! He really must have been hungry!

Jack was still a star!

Here are the boys finding out what a Rhino smells like! If you want to know they stink!

Climbing the big rhino!

Monkey's getting some sun!

Trey liked these little rabbits!

Jack waiting for his limo...I mean train ride!

Riding with daddy!

Me and the Bair! Just so you know the front of the train is not the place to be! It's noisy and hot!
We had a great time at the zoo and both boys were tuckered out by the time that we got in the car a left! We had a fun day!

That night I wrapped all of Jack's gifts and set them up so that he would see them in the morning!

He had slept in kind of late for him and really was still tired that morning can't you tell?

But as soon as he started to open presents he livened right up!

Showing me his cool Buzz towel that Trey got for him!

Being very careful about opening his presents!

Shooting hoops in his new basketball hoop!

We had a low key day he did some of his favorite things like ride his scooter and mow the lawn!

Blowing out his candles! He hasn't figured it out yet!
The cupcakes were super yummy!

He ended the day by sneaking over to our neighbors! He went and showed Brucey and Kathy just how great the cupcakes were! We had a great day with our little Jacky Bair! We love him so much! He is such a special little guy! He is so shy but has tons of personality! He knows what he wants in his little life and will get it! He loves his big brother and wants to be just like him! We love you so much Jack and could imagine our little family without you! We hope that you had a great birthday and we look forward to all of our many fun adventures with you! Happy Birthday Jacky Bair!

It's Party Time!!!

Finally the day that Trey and Jack have both been waiting for came! On Saturday we had their big birthday bash! We debated about a theme for along time but finally settled on a baseball theme...all American! I was praying that we wouldn't get rained out because honestly every time we have a party for them the weather does not cooperate with us! It did for the most part besides the fact that it was the hottest day of the week!




Here is the set up! Thankfully Matt and Tiffany let us borrow this giant tent that they had! I think that the whole thing turned out so cute and festive!

Me and my babies! I can't believe how old they both are! I know that Jack doesn't look like he is having much fun but he was just worried about the fact that their was so many people at his house!


Richard did a wonderful job at the hot dog grilling!


The boys loved hanging out with Cousin Carter! They even were very surprised to find out when they woke up in the morning that Carter had slept at our house! They got to hang out with him and AnaBelle and Uncle Matt all morning while I got set up for the party! Thanks to Matt for watching them while we got everything put up!


Jack loved his food! Can't you tell he wore it on his face all day!

He also had a Root Beet with Grandpa Stud!

We got to hang out with Great Grandma Bair, Grandpa Bair and Kalee has finally decided to take on the name of Grandma Kalee! We were so glad that they all could make it!


We had a pinata and and even little AnaBelle got in on the action!


Jack took a few swings and decided that he was done!

Trey was there for business he was determined to crack that thing open!


Richard couldn't go without his turn at it! The pinata was one stubborn thing it was not wanting to open for anyone!


Finally there was success and all that kids ran for the treats!


We opened presents me and Richard had alot of fun with the pop guns that uncle Matt and Aunt Tiffer got the boys! They have loved them they can't put them down! They have been hunting wabbits in Wonderland! (We are on and Disneyland high! Everything we talk about has to do with Disneyland!)


Jack didn't love opening his presents as much as he loved eating his sucker! He has been eyeing them in the bag for weeks!


Trey loved all the Toy Story stuff that he got from friends and family!

Soon it was cupcake time! I had made cupcakes to look like baseballs, sadly they melted in the sun and didn't look so great!
Trey loved his cupcake even if it melted!


Jack added a little more on to that messy face and loved every minute of it!

Uncle Matt and AnaBelle loved them too! I am so happy that we have such wonderful family and friends that came to the boys party! They both had a great time and loved all the spoiling that took place! We had so much fun and this is probably the bast party that they have has so far (mostly because I didn't have to have it in the house)! Thank you so much for all of you that came! Happy Birthday to both of my boys I love you so much and I'm so grateful to have you in my life! I don't know what I would do without you! I would probably go crazy of a different kind! Now we are so excited to be moving on to our next big adventure...Disneyland! We can't wait only 39 day 16 hours and 32 minutes as of right now! Yes we are counting just like that! We are so excited! We are going to Mickey's Trick or Treat Party so we have some costume work ahead of us! The boys can't wait and neither can me and Richard!

Drive In Movie!!!

We decided last Monday that even though Trey has already gone back to school that we would try to cross another thing off of our Summer list! Trey is an avid movie fan just like his dad so we were going to hit up the Drive-In! We invited our BFF's the Ropers and we were going to have a good time! I tried to explain to Trey what a drive in was like, he just couldn't get it! He didn't understand why on earth you would go to a movie and sit in your car! I knew that he was just going to have to go and experience this for himself! I myself haven't been to a Drive-In since I was probably 5-6 maybe and we saw Turner and Hooch that is about all I remember and falling asleep in the back of my Dad's truck! He had a mattress back there and it was great!

We put a foam pad in the back of the Durango and it was prefect and cozy! Trey brought his pillow and blanket, wore his pj's and was all set to watch despicable me!
Jack put up his chair right next to his buddy Tenzing!

They talked and giggled and got sleepy together! They both had fun watching the movie!


Trey and Oakley loved the back of the car!

Jack couldn't decide if he liked it! Eventually he decided that he didn't and sat outside most of the night! Until I made him get in there to go to sleep!

Richard and Spence talked their manly talk!

Trey sittin' pretty, patiently waiting for the movie to start!

Jacky Bair ate some marshmallows and sort of watched the show!

Richard enjoyed every minute of the drive-in!

Finally these two little guys were tuckered right out! They both crashed out in the back! I wish that I could have! We were so tired that we didn't even stay for the second movie! Richard and me both had a hard time staying awake on the ride home! It was such fun little thing to do and it will be a great memory for us with our friends! We are so lucky to have two great friends that like to be on the go as much as we do! They are up for anything and we sure do like hanging out with them! We had a great time at the Drive-in and can't wait to do it again!
