Snuggles

Last night I asked Dustin to hold Crew for me while I got caught up on some blogging. This is what I found when I was done. Snuggled up on the couch just sleeping away. Crew loves to sleep right next to one of us and feel our breath on his skin. If he can have that, he will sleep and sleep. Sweet little boy!

Getting Ready for Christmas!

Well, we are starting to get ready for Christmas at the Price house. This is my favorite time of year! I love the decorations, I love the weather, and most of all, I love that I get to spend lots of time with my family. These are just a few of the things we have up so far, and Dustin is a little scared because I told him this is just the beginning! Our Christmas tree is a tiny little thing, but hey, it does it's job and I love it. Catcher had a blast decorating it. He had to tell us the color of each ornament before he put it on the tree. He is growing up so fast. Christmas should be fun with him this year, I think that he is finally old enough to get a little excited about it.

Cute little Chub!

Don't we all wish we were this cute with our shirt off????!!!

Reading...

The other day I had Crew playing on the floor while I was getting some things done. After a bit I came around the corner and found Catcher "reading" a book to Crew. It was soooooo cute! Crew was just so excited that Catcher was taking time to be next to him. Crew already thinks that his big brother is the best thing ever!

Thanksgiving Pictures...Lots of them!!

Catcher, Tatum, Trace, and Kace eating their Thanksgiving on the Porch.

They were so excited to have a table just for them without any of us big people bugging them.

After the Goodman Thanksgiving, we headed over to visit Pops & Grami Price...

Catcher loves his Pops!!


We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are blessed to have both my family and Dustin's family close by. We were able to spend part of the day with each of them, and we wouldn't have it any other way. Catcher loves his cousins on both sides. He played hard at the Goodman Thanksgiving, and then was able to play with his Lewis cousins at the Price house that evening. We are thankful for so much in our lives. We are so thankful for the Gospel in our lives and in our Home and to know that we can be an eternal family. I am thankful to have the Priesthood in my home, and to have a husband worthy to hold it and use it. I am so thankful for my two little boys and the joy they bring to me, they make me a better person. I am thankful for ALL of my family and Dustin's family. I know that any of them would do anything for us. There are just to many "thankful" things to list... We love all of our family dearly and look forward to the Holidays with each of you!

Our Boxer Family

As most of you know, we raise Boxer's. It is getting cold outside at night, so they have been getting to come in and sleep in our laundry room. They are enjoying the heater, and their nice soft bed. Just thought I would share pic's and show you all how big they have gotten. From left to right is Nala, Koda, and Roxy. We don't have any litters coming for a while, but when we do, we will be sure to post pictures.

Blue Eyed Boy....

I wanted to share these pictures of our little Crew boy. He has the most beautiful blue eyes right now. They are as blue as the day he was born. We don't know if they will stay or not, but we are loving them for now. Catcher has the biggest brown eyes ever too, as you can see in one of my last posts, him in the hat, and I love his eyes as well. These two boys sure know how to melt their mom with their eyes.

Who's BIRTHDAY is it?

Hmmm...who's birthday is it today???

I'll give you a hint...he can always make me smile!

Yep...it is DUSTIN'S BIRTHDAY!

Happy Birthday Babe!! I just wanted to take a second and tell you how much I love you. You will never know how complete you make me. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't thank my lucky starts that we met and fell in love. I couldn't ask for a better husband or father to my little guys. You do your best to love us and take care of us. Our two little boys love you with all their hearts... I love to see the excitement in Catcher's eyes when you walk in the door after work. He waits all day to see you. He wakes up in the morning asking "where's daddy," he just can't wait to play. I hope that today is special for you, and I will do everything I can to make it that way...I love you Dustin Price!! Thank you so much for being mine!

Bad Night!

Well last Wednesday night was a bad night for our little family. All four of us were in our Truck and on our way to Dustin's parents house when we were t-boned by another vehicle. The pictures don't really do justice to the damage done to our vehicle. We were hit hard enough that the entire frame of our truck is bent and tilts to one side. The doors no longer shut. Our vehicle was actually picked up by the other car, and then dropped. Thank goodness however, that we are all doing pretty well. Both boys were in their car seats which held them pretty secure, and Dustin and I had our seat belts on. A few hours after the accident, Dustin and I started to feel the pain. The next day all four of us were in to the Doctor to be checked out. My little guys seem to be ok and I am so, so, so grateful for that. Dustin and I both have some serious neck issues. We were whipped pretty hard and have "lost all curve in our necks." I actually have a bit of swelling at the base of my neck and into my back. We are both seeing a Chiropractor and trying to get it all worked out. We are just so glad that we were in our big truck, and that we were all able to come home after the accident instead of having one of us in the hospital or something. We thank our Heavenly Father for looking out for each of us!

Dad's Hat

I had to get a picture of this. Catcher was ready for bed and found dad's hat. He wore it most of the night. Anything to be like dad. He looks so grown up with it on. I love his eyes in this picture!

My cute boys!

Here are my two little guys on their daddies lap just before heading to bed. They have to get a little bit more play time in before it is off to sleep, and they know to go to daddy for a little wrestling.

Bedtime Kisses! Goodnight boys.

Here are some pictures of my little guys ready to go to bed. Dustin was holding Crew for me, and Catcher had to jump up and get his snuggles too. Of course that always leads to a little bit of wrestling and giggling, but that is ok, I love the sound of my boys laughter.

Basketball

Catcher and his cars...he takes them to every game.

Crew being held by Aunt Tami, with Mark sitting next to them.

Gunnar, the basketball STAR!

Once again my camera is not the best "action" camera..this is blurry, but here is Gunnar coming into the game.

Every Saturday night we go and watch my nephew Gunnar play basketball. He is on a city team, and he is really really good. Gunnar is the point guard, and he can handle the ball well. It is fun to go and watch him grow and improve each time. We love basketball at this house, and have really been excited about being able to go to the games. You are doing great Gunnar...Keep up the hard work!

New P.J.'s for a Growing Boy!

Well, we had to break down and buy new p.j.'s for Catcher. Now that it is getting cooler at night, and he won't sleep with any covers on, I have to make sure he has warm jammies on. However, the kid has had a major growth spurt since last winter (imagine that) and none of his old p.j's fit him. I have been making him squeeze into his old one's for the last month or so, and he may as well have been wearing shorts and a t-shirt. Finally he has new ones, and he loves them...so we thought we would post a picture. They have Mater and Lightening McQueen on them, and those are his "so favorite!"

Arizona State Fair

Dustin and Catcher being silly at the Fair. I love them!

Catcher and Grandma looking at the Cows.

Catcher and his cousin Tatum by the chickens. I was trying to get them together for a pic, but Tatum was not going to get close to those Chickens, and Catcher couldn't stop looking at them long enough.

Catcher and his cousin Tatum looking at the goats

Catcher at the Petting Zoo in the Fair. He is a little worried about what the goat is doing behind him.

This picture is dark and it is hard to see, but the first green slide from the left is Dustin and Catcher coming down the slide. And directly to the left of them on the orange slide is my nephew Trace.

We went to the Arizona State Fair a few nights ago and had a blast. We went with my brother Jade and his family. The weather was great. My niece Camry was dancing with her dance group at the fair and so it gave us a great reason to go. Catcher and Crew both loved all the bright lights. I loved the fresh lemonade, and Dustin and I both enjoyed the fry bread! Catcher was really intrigued by the animals at the petting zoo, and would have spent all night looking at them, as you can see by the pictures. He also loved the big slide. He rode it twice with his dad. The first time his face was terrified as they came down the slide, but immediately at the end he had a big smile. Later that night as we walked past the slide again, he grabbed his dads hand and said he wanted to ride again. So off they went, and this time he had the biggest smile on his face the entire time! It was a fun night for our little family!

Sleeping Boys

Crew sleeping in his swing. Thank goodness for swings!

Catch sleeping in his car seat

I love these two pictures. The first one is Crew sleeping in his swing. You can't see his face, and that is because he loves to sleep with his face covered. It must be a comfort. But it is cute. The second picture is of Catcher using his hat while in the car, to try and block the sun that was shining on his face. He fell asleep with it like that. I had to take a picture of course! I thought these two pictures would be fun to show because it shows my two boys doing something so much alike already in their young little lives.

We're So Glad When Daddy Comes Home

Crew loves his Daddy! This is a picture I took just as Dustin got home and took Crew from me. He was excited to see his Daddy, and gave the camera a nice smile. I am so thankful for Dustin. His boys love him so much, and that is because he is a great Dad! He takes the time everyday to get down and play with them. Catcher loves to wrestle with his dad. He thinks his dad is the greatest thing ever, and Crew is learning that too. Love you Babe!
