first of all Happy Valentines Day!!!! I love valentines day, mainly because of frosted heart sugar cookies tho!
But anyway life has been pretty darn good for our little family. We have been so lucky this past week. We have been able to spend time with both Rye's and my family. Rye's mom, dad, grandparents, and brother took a trip to see us and some surrounding areas. It was so fun having them here for a little bit. Holden was so in heaven! It was also nice having those men do some chores fro me, haha! what great men they all are! Then the day they left we headed to Salt Lake to watch state wrestling. It was so nice to get to see all my family. they were almost all there. Slade did great. He took 3rd, we were hoping for first but he will do it next year!
The baby is getting so big! It is fun because I get to have an ultra sound every other week. The lady spends about five min checking up on my placenta, then she spends thirty playing with the little man! Rye has had a ton of time off work because of weather, so life has actually felt normal! We have gone and done a ton of fun little family things. Holden is getting so funny. He is starting to talk so good and has the funniest things to say.
for example, Treats/candy are "TreeeeeEEE Poos!!"His trains all have names, like his Happy train, mean lil' train, or his tracty trainy.
But the best thing is his "bad word". It is actually kinda sad. He hears me yell RYE!!!! so much because, of course I am always getting mad at his dad haha, and so he thinks rye is a bad word, or angry word. So whenever he is mad or frustrated he yells, Rye, rye rye!!!
Any how here are some pictures of visiting family, family outings, Holden and his friends, and just life lately! There are a billion!

So, we have had a weird crazy life lately. Two weeks ago Rye's boss called and said be ready by the morning to head to Wyoming! We were all going to go, but I decided I had to much to get done and I didn't really want to stay with a bunch of oil field guys. So Rye headed to Wyoming and I headed to Utah. SO I got to spend two weeks with my mommy. I got a lot of baby things done, and crafty things. Holden got to play with his aunts and cousins, and I got to spend some time with my sisters and Rye's brother and sister, it was a blast! My cousin also went through the salt lake temple so I got to take a little trip with my parents and little sisters. Holden got so spend some time with Rye's parents while I was gone. He loved it! He calls them Debby and Russy! It's cute. The best part about the temple was that I got to sit by mirinda and watch our third get sealed to his beautiful wife. We all three are only months apart and grew up together and also attended SUU together, it was pretty special. Rye convinced his boss to let him go home for this last weekend for Holden's birthday party and I was soooooo happy! because they just told him the night before to plan on being there at least two more weeks. But long story short we are now back in farmington and just waiting for rye to be sent back, I am getting kinda worried about where he may end up. They could send him there, Texas, Cortex or New York......I told him I will kill him If I have this baby alone!
Yes this did hit him in the face!
One morning I couldn't find these too and they were outside with noahs socks on. no pants and it was freezing!
I hate this game.......hahaha! That's all I really want to say. This post is not meant to be "deep" and meaningful, really I just hate this dumb game. 
We had such a great December. It was majorly crazy but it was great, and we survived! We barely got all moved into our new place, and then busted it home on Christmas Eve. And I am so glad we made it, because it was so fun. We first went to Ryes moms and dads to open some presents, then headed over to the woods party, which is always so fun! and then headed over to my grandma Rhodes for my favorite tradition, oyster stew, then stopped by my grandma moyles! We are on the ball, haha! it was a very fun, but long night. Christmas was great tho. Holden gets funner every year, we are so exited for next year when he will be even funner and we will have a almost one year old again. We spent that night with rye's mom and dad, and Holden and Russ danced all night! it was so cute! The Whole holiday was so nice. We were able to go to the temple with my whole family, a few movies, the usual outdoor activities, shop, snowboarding ( not me tho =( ) visit, and lots more. New years was also a lot of fun. Holden had so much fun. and was sooooooo spoiled. Not very many kids have six grandmas that totally adore them! and cousins that are all only months apart. He loves them all so much, I am sure if any of you saw him you were greeted with mounds of kisses! We hope you all had a great holiday!
We had so much fun going home for thanksgiving! We had the best Thanksgiving dinner ever with Ryes family. I ate like a pig. We did a few family things with my family to. But the highlight of the trip was going to Rainbow Canyon Nevada and doing my favorite thing, Breakfast at Ryes and my favorite little diner and then heading up the canyon (which is beautiful) to watch the trains. And if anybody knows my child, they will know, he is crazy obsessed with Choo-choo trains! So, my family made a special trip there just for Holden to see a real choochoo. He loved it. I love just simple little family trips like these. I cant wait until we can always be near our families. We just love them all!
Holden and Bentley were so cute, they really have quite the love hate relationship tho, they are either making out (literally) or punching each other!
Holden had a blast smashing coins on the tracks!
