Colton's Birthday Parties

23rd Birthday Celebrations
Started in Layton
Little Photo shoot in our neighbor's backyard.

Great pizza for dinner! And a cake he decorated himself!

Colton finally got his own really nice memory foam pillow, so now he won't try to steal mine! He also got some nice clothes so that he can look spiffy when he goes to work for USAA.

We had to celebrate Colton's birthday one more time in Levan just because we wanted to party again! And yes, that is better-then-ANYTHING cake you see there!

Then we had a hopscotch tourney... "Fly, Bethany! Fly!"

Andrea is concentrating very hard on placing her 'hoppy-taw' in just the right spot.

I'm leaping through the air!

Colton pickin' up the 'hoppy-taw'...

And hoppin' home!

Colton got a new matching laptop hard cover and keyboard cover.

And a bonsai money tree! How lucky is he?!

Daddy and Mama K gave him a emergency flashlight, radio, and charger all in one!

Andrea is again the verge of expulsion in giving Colton his "birthday trim." 
(Note the his nice hair cut in the above pictures...)

May Odds and Ends

Sheena relaxing under the tramp.

The magnum opus we found downstairs.

We visited Aunt Sheree's house and had to take a picture in her beautiful yard.

Colton and I made cooked cabbage and "sweet and spicy" chicken for dinner which was actually rather spicy!

Let's take a vote. Toilet bowl cleaner or dish washing brush...?

Colton's Grandma Brown pulled out her handy-dandy list of technical questions for Colton when we went to visit.

Stopping to smell the flowers.


Andrea's Senior Photo Shoot 
These are some of our other favorite pics that didn't quite make it onto the announcement, but we still had to share them! Now that the announcements are out, we can share these pictures without being big spoilers.
Voted the #1 Best Pic of All!

Andrea's reaction when I walked blindly into a support beam-thing in the hay barn.

Colton loved the lighting of these shots.

And we have to say that Andrea does look pretty darn cute too!

"It's tough to be so good looking, but I just do what I can..."

"Which, let's be honest, doesn't limit me much."

She's just too cute! What else can we say?!

As you can tell, Andrea is "out-standing" in her field.

Andrea even makes old horse trailers look good.

Dang Girl!

"Yeah, that's how I roll."



Temple Square Trip with Janna and Ammon
Ammon and cousin Jocelyn (Korryn's daughter).
-Can't vouch for the correctness of the spelling of the above names...

Janna, Ammon, and Me--all the temple flowers where beautiful if you can believe it!

The tree's where in full bloom.

In remembrance of Grandma Marvin!

Jocelyn

Forget-Me-Nots

"Fire" tulips (I made that name up myself!)

Temple Square Gardener (with awesome flowering bush behind him.)

Awesome event room in the JSM building.

"I love to see the temple...

I'll go inside some day."

Temple doors.

In the shadow of the temple.

Greenhouse is up!

IT IS DONE!!

Sliding doors on the front

We put a pipe in the left bottom corner to run power into the greenhouse. 

I put a few photos together so you can see a little more of the inside. 

Back view, we added a big pipe as a door stop for the horse gate. 

We stopped by President and Sister Bahr's for dinner--Colton's Mission president.

We stopped by Papa P's work; it is an air plane repair shop. Really cool!
