Halloween!

So I thought about Halloween a little earlier than usual since I now have a little one. I found this cute Halloween costume for Landon at babystyle! I love it! You should check out babystyle.com if you need costume ideas for your little kiddos! They have tons of cute ones! Also I checked out Pottery Barn Kids, and I found these cute treat bags! I got the traditional pumpkin one for Landon! It's so cute! Plus you can personalize them and put your kids name on it! Soooo cute! Both items came within 3 days of ordering as well! =)

Our Anniversary Night

Last night was our anniversary. My friend Becca called and offered to watch Landon so we can enjoy a night alone. Paul and I went to Town Square Mall and walked around for a little bit. Afterwards he told me we were going to my favorite restaurant, Bucca De Beppo. He lied. We were driving down the strip and all of a sudden we turned into the Paris Hotel parking garage. We ended up going to the Eiffel Tower Restaurant. It was a really nice restaurant. When the hostess took us to our seats, our waiter delivered a dozen red roses. I was the only girl in the restaurant with roses. I felt so special! After that we had a salad, then our main meal and a souffle for dessert. After dessert the waiter brought out another dessert on a plate that said Happy Anniversary. It was so yummy. We had a really nice night, although we did miss little Landon. =)

Three years ago...

Three years ago I married my best friend for time and all eternity in the Las Vegas Nevada Temple. I could not have asked for a better eternal companion than Paul. He is everything I've ever dreamed of in a man, and more. He is always willing to help out with anything I ask him to, no matter how busy he is, or if he doesn't want to do it, he never says no. He is very encouraging to me in all that I do, such as crafting, being a good wife, and being a good mother. Paul is such an amazing father to Landon. Landon is always so excited to see Paul when he comes home from school. Paul is a worthy Priesthood holder and is the Patriarch of our home. He always makes me want to be better and to strive to be the best that I can be. He has never yelled or raised his voice at me, and has never once started a fight. He is the perfect example of how I want our sons to treat women when they start dating. He always makes me feel good about myself when I am feeling down. He is my BEST FRIEND and for him I am eternally grateful to our Father in Heaven for blessing me with him. I LOVE YOU HONEY! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! 

More Peas Please!

Today we fed Landon Peas for the first time! He actually liked them! He got mad when we stopped feeding them to him, and he even tried to feed himself! He had so much fun, but he sure was messy!

Landon's girlfriend

Last night we went to Kim and Nate's house for dinner. Afterwards we played a game. To keep the kiddo's entertained Kim put on the movie Little People. I looked at Landon and this is how he was touching Ireland. How cute!

Play Date and Craft Day

On Friday my friend Katie came over with her son Mason. Mason is a St. Patty's day baby and Landon is an April Fools baby, so they are very close in age. They stared at each other a bit, and played with their own toys. At the end of the day we decided we had to take pictures! it was so fun to see Katie again, we were neighbors for years! Thanks Katie and Mason for coming over! We had a great time!

Here's the boys!

This is what we made! So cute for Halloween!
