Oldies but Goodies

These pictures were taken back in January on Chris's birthday, but I just love them so I am posting them on here.

Happy Birthday, Jax!!!

 Jackson is now our little 3 year old! He had quite the birthday celebration at the bowling alley with friends, cousins, family, baseball cupcakes and pizza.  They were all good little bowlers (thanks to the great ramp invention).

 High Fives!!

 Leanne, Emma, and baby #3!!!

 Mason and Emma being too cute!!!

 Proud birthday boy!!!

 T-ball, bat, balls, and a his very own "i-pad".

 Cute little Cody Bear!!!

Birthday dinner at Red Robin.  The servers sang to Jackson and brought him this giant ice cream sundae!! 

Overall, I think Jackson had a wonderful birthday.  I can already see a difference in Jackson and how fast he is growing up.  He is becoming more outgoing and outspoken!! At the park he even goes up to other kids and asks if he can play with them.  And, of course he is sure to state his opinion about anything we say to him. He still sucks his thumb and loves his blue blankie, is almost fully potty trained, has started sleeping in our bed, (we keep saying we need to stop it but he is just so darn cute and snuggly).  Jackson is growing up so fast, I am excited to see what this year has to bring!

We love you, Jackson!

XOXOXOXO

Merry Christmas!

Well, as usual I forgot to take pictures of our family Christmas, but we did have a wonderful time with the WHOLE Cable family all together!!  We watched football, opened presents, played cards, played trains, did crafts, cried and laughed, and had great times together.  The unfortunate part of Christmas this year was that it was my turn to take call and my first time working on Christmas.  Jackson woke up at 4:30 Christmas morning and wanted so badly to go downstairs and see his train table cause he was so curious to see what this "Santa" thing was all about. So, I told him we had to wait until Cody woke up and we could go see. Cody promptly woke up at 6:00 and then of course my pager went off at 6:05 and I had to go to work.  So I grabbed the boys, grabbed my camera and we ran downstairs to see what Santa brought.  New train tracks for Jackson and a basketball hoop for Cody, and oranges at the bottom of their stockings.  They were so happy and it was so cute to watch the magic light up their faces.  I snapped a bunch of pictures then ran out the door, and I cried the whole way to work because I wanted to stay and watch them soak up all the fun.  It was a busy day at work, but I was glad to help save lives.  It was a constant reminder of the reason we are celebrating Christmas, and our Savior that was born on Christmas day had to make the sacrifice to save us!

Boo! Its Halloween!

Jackson and Cody before they went trick-or-treating.  When we told Jackson to say trick-or-treat, he kept saying "Boo! Its halloween"  Come to find out a week later-its part of a song he learned at Nana's.  He was super cute at all the houses, he couldn't quite reach the doorbells, so Daddy helped him.  Then he said his cute little "trick-or-treat" and "thank you"  then get s excited and show Daddy what he got.  He loved it!

Candy sorting-Cody went to 2 houses then came home and helped hand out candy. Jackson and Dad went around the neighborhood and look at all that candy!

Carving pumpkins-Sydney, Cody and Chris.  The best part of course is the pumpkin seeds! YUM!!!
