We took our annual trip with Julie and her kids to the corn maze and pumpkin patch. Gabby love the pumpkin patch. She was loading up with pumpkins. Every time she saw one she like she would pick it up and either put it in her pocket or give it to mom. By the time we got back on the hay ride mom was able to ditch a few of the pumpkins. We we got ready to leave it started to rain. We were glad we left before it got to cold.

HALLOWEEN

We spent Halloween in Denver with Grandma and Grandpa Maynes. They took us to a trunk or treat. Gabby loved going to all the car and getting candy. What child doesn't though. Afton and Gabby were Fairy, they looked so cute. Lisa was a hippy. (sorry you can't see the cool gogo boots.) Andy was punk guy. He had tattoo shelves, ear rings and of course the mullet to finish the outfit. We had great Halloween and are so glad we got to spend it with Grandma and Grandpa Maynes.

Blessing Day!!

HI. Its me Afton, I just wanted to tell you all about my Blessing Day and grateful I'm to have a loving Family. I was blessed on Sept 5 in the Ballard North ward by my Daddy. My Daddy did such a wonderful job with my blessing. I'm so glad that he holds the priesthood and honors it so that he was able to give me a blessing I will have for the rest of my life. Thank you everyone that came to my blessing. I love being held and spoiled by each and everyone of you. I miss you that could be here and hope I can soon one day see you.
I love you all,
AFTON










Labor Day!!

For Labor Day we went to the Cabin with the Maynes' Family. We had such a blast. We really didn't have much of schedule which was so nice to have that time to relax a catch up with the family. We took Gabby to go down the zip line and swing on the rope. She got to watch Mckay and Lyndsi ride on the zip line and rope swing first so she could see how much fun it was. Gabby tried both and didn't want to go back to the cabin, she just wanted to keep swinging.
Gabby played in the sand box for the most part. The sand box is her favorite place to be when we go to the cabin. Afton love being out side ride in the snuggle. She just likes to be where all the action is happening.

Splash Park

I decide to take Gabby to the Splash park in Vernal with Julie and her kids. Gabby was a lttle nervous at first, but once she saw that her cousins were having fun she got a little braver. Afton also decide that she wanted to swim for the first time. She loved being in the water.

24th of July

On the 24Th of July we went over to Julie's house(Lisa's sister) and had a little BBQ. We let off fireworks later. Gabby love the snaps, once she figured out how to make them pop on the ground. We had great little celebration, and Andy really enjoyed letting the fireworks off with Damion. Those two act like little kid when they get to use fire. Thanks Julie and Damion for letting us come over. We had a lot of fun.

Dinosaur Museum

After having been cooped up in the Hospital and the house for two weeks Andy and I need to get out and enjoy the summer weather. We decided to take Gabriella and Afton the Dinosaur museum in Vernal over the weekend of July 24. The Museum wasn't big but Gabby loved every minute of it. Gabriella's favorite thing was the big gold fish outside. Andy would ask her if she wanted to catch the m and take them home. She would get a big smile on her face and say yes. We didn't bring any home so was a little mad when we left. Afton slept the whole time so you can say she enjoyed it to.

Two Weeks

Well it has been two weeks now that little Afton joined our family. We have enjoyed every minute with her. Gabby loves be a big sister. She is always wanting to hold Afton and feed her. Gabby is always trying to share her treats and toys with Afton. She loves to talk and tell stories to her little sister. (its so cute to watch) Gabby loves having a sister but she refuses to say Afton's name. She will call her baby and sister or she'll ask if she can hold it like Afton is not a person.
Afton weight 7 lbs 2 oz and 19 3/4 inches long when she was born. She loves having her sister attention all the time. Afton really likes to be swaddled and rocked when she sleeps. She sleeps good at night; which is nice for Mom and Dad. We are so glad she is apart of our family. We Love you Afton.
