Ryker getting lippy.....

Today after church we fed Ryker and even at this young age was already getting lippy....

Givingthanks Day

This was a fun day for us. We started by going to the zoo in Salt Lake. On Thanksgiving day they give the animals different things like pinatas filled with fruit and vegis and the crowning event is when the elephants smash a giant pumpkin and eat it. This year the pumpkin was 1054.5 pounds!

After we were finished with the zoo we went home and made a great thanksgiving meal and got stuffed. The day ended with a piece of amazing pumpkin pie made by Konae...she makes dang good pie! We hope that all of you has a great day and took time to remember all that we have to be grateful for.

Ryker is 5 months old

Well the time sure flies...just seems like yesterday that Konae was begging for the epidural and then we had our little bundle of joy. Ryker is now 5 months old; we just took him in to the doctors today, technically his 4 month check up but due to no insurance he had to wait a month. The Doc checked him out, said he looks great, and he got his regular shots. He is now 14.5 pounds and just over 24 inches long.

A Condo divided

Well we went and did it. With a 5 minute tromp through the snow and rain and a 1 minute wait in the non existent line we made it to our voting location and did our duty. Even though Konae and I voted differently we feel that it is important to get out there and vote and exercise your right as an American...and even though only one of us voted for the winning presidential candidate I will still love Konae after her candidate looses.

Fall Festivities

Over the past few weeks we have had the opportunity to spend some time with family; enjoying the time of year when it is perfectly legal, even expected, that if you have young children you should dress them up in some type of ridiculous costume so that when they eventually do have that first date you as the parent can bring out the old pics and get a chuckle...well, here ya go.
