You will have significant experiences. I hope that you will write them down and keep record of them, that you will read them from time to time and refresh your memory of those meaningful and significant things. Some may be funny. some may be significant only to you. some of them may be sacred and quietly beautiful. Some may build one upon another until they represent a lifetime of special experience. - President Hinckley

Little Texas turns 5!

We had a waterslide/bounce house for Tyler for his big #5! He loved it and invited almost his whole primary class and lots of neighbor friends. He got a little overstimulated during his party (see pic below) - but all in all had a fantastic time and SCORED big time in the present department! It was a treat because Aunt Trish frosted his football cake and it looks superb!










Here are a few things about our sweet Tex for this year:
1. He just does his own thing
2. He doesn't love going to church - "it's boring" - but once he's there he loves it!
3. He loves getting mail - he got 2 birthday cards and was thrilled to pieces
4. He loves to swim and go down the twisty slides on mom or dad's lap!
5. He recognizes his name and tells you each letter
6. He goes to bed when he's tired without being asked.
7. His freckles and little grin could melt anyone's heart.
8. He is a tender little soul
9. He loves to play with his siblings- Hunter is his "best guy" and Dallin is his playmate (that is a love/hate relationship) - and he loves to be mothered by Gwendalin (when she does it nicely).
10. He always wants to play with his friends.
11. He wants to answer every question in Family Home Evening.
12. He is FANTASTIC on his scooter!
13. He's just a great addition to our family!
14. He would watch Tv all the time if we let him.
15. He loves going camping with his dad...especially father and sons.
16. He is musically gifted and makes up lots of fun songs. (he gets this from travis)

WE LOVE YOU TYLER!
