Merry Christmas From Caden!

The Jeep Got A Face Lift.

Well here is the exciting story. I was going home from work, I just merged onto the Loop 101 in Scottsdale. I was in the right lane in traffic. traveling about 35 mph. I wanted to change lanes, so I looked over my left shoulder to move into the middle lane, after I looked over my shoulder and found that it was safe to change lanes I looked forward and found that my lane had stopped. I started to move into the middle lane to avoid a collision but failed to do so in a timely manner and clipped the left rear of the truck in front of me. After I hit the car in front of me my car stalled and sat in the middle lane for about 2-3 secs when I got nailed from another car from behind. This car kinked the whole body that now the rear doors are popped out on the top and the doors are hard to open. We had liability insurance so I am going to be doing all body work by myself. Every body involved in the accident are ok. The jeep still drives good.

Caden's Burn!

My poor baby! We were at Costco and they were offering samples of cocoa. Caden wanted one, so I got him one. The woman serving it had it in a plastic juice pitcher and was pouring it into little Styrofoam cups. She new I was giving it to him and she said nothing about it being hot. Nothing in my head made me think it would be very hot so I (foolishly) gave it to him without testing it. As soon as it touched his lips he screamed and it spilled on his chest. I wasn't too worried but I got him water and was trying to calm him down. After a few minutes I couldn't understand why he still hadn't calmed down so I looked down his shirt and I could see his skin peeling and his skin was bright red. I found Nate and he went to get a manager. We had to file a report and They brought Caden candy, ice cream and a whole pizza. They were really nice about it and they admitted that they should not have been serving a drink that hot to any costumers let alone children. He feel asleep on the way home and when he woke up he was happy as a clam and hasn't said anything about it since. It's healing just fine but it looks pretty bad.

Things That Made Me Smile this Week!

Leave a comment and tell me something that made you smile this week!

We were taking pictures after church on Sunday and Caden noticed that there was a red Jeep that looked just like ours. He proceeded to try and get us into the car but we explained that it wasn't our car and that ours was at home (we walk to church). After a few minutes we hear Caden start screaming bloody murder(watching some one drive away in the Jeep), "My Car! My Car, NOOOOOOO My Car!" He threw himself on the ground crying because he thought some one was stealing our car! It took several minutes for us to calm him down. We couldn't help laughing. You gotta love his passion for cars:)

Nate Got a 350 dollar bonus this week for fixing 100% of his cars right the first time. P.S. He is loving his work!

Drake took his first step! Just one but it was very exciting!

Happy Birthday Drake!!!!! (Video at the End)

My sweet little man is 1!!! I can't believe it! He had such a great day! I took these adorable pictures of him after church and then we went home for a nice nap.

Later that night Drake had a delicious dinner and then dug in to his Birthday Cake! He was giving bites to everyone with his fork and Daddy, Mommy and Caden all helped eat it:)

This is a video of us trying to take Drake's Cake away from him! He was not happy about so we gave it back!

Cute Boys!

So we only stayed for sacrament at church this Sunday because the boys were being absolute nightmares but I did manage to get some pictures of their new Sunday outfits from Grandma and Grandpa Packer and their new dress shoes from Grandpa Drake. These smile did not last long. Caden was doing pretty good till we got to church and he took off his shoes and sock and didn't want to wear his pants anymore!! Drake just Cried but I did get one little smile out of him. We are going to take them to get portraits done soon now that they are feeling a little better. Thank you Grandma and Grandpa's!
