Brayden had me frost his house and then when he took over all he did was eat the frosting. He was in Heaven.

This is Brayden's poor house. It wouldn't stay together for anything. I even tried putting more and more frosting on it to make it stick, but nothing worked. Needless to say it ended up in the garbage. Brayden was just fine with it, since all he wanted was the candy anyway.

Here is Conner's finished house. He's quite the decorator.

I wanted to get a cute picture of all of the boys together. After many pictures, I went with the one where they were all looking at the camera with their eyes open. It still is pretty cute though.

From the minute it started snowing Conner and Brayden wanted to go out and play in it. I made them wait until there was actually snow to play in. We had fun. I was able to set up the baby monitor in my kitchen window and we played while Porter was taking his nap.

Here is Brayden just having fun in the snow.

Here is Brayden with our snowman's bottom. The snow was perfect for packing, so it was easy for the kids to roll their snowballs and get more snow.

Here they are with their finished snowman. The twigs we found for arms are so tiny that you can't really see them.

We were finally able to get a picture of all of Lance's brother's together. This is the first time in almost 7 years we have been able to get them all together for a picture. They are standing in line from oldest to youngest; left to right. Wes, James, Lance, Mike, Brian.

Here is one with all of the Brown boys.

Look how big Porter is getting. Brayden almost can't hold him.

This is Porter with his new cousin, Elija. He is my cousin Justin's son (on my mom's side).

Here is our family at my mom's family's annual halloween party. I was dressed as Dolly Parton, if you can't tell.

Here is my dad with Porter.

Brayden wanted to try on my Dolly Parton wig while I was getting ready.

Conner had to have a turn, too.

Here are the boys in their Halloween costumes. I have some pretty cute superheros, don't I?

Here is Brayden with one of his famous falling asleep anywhere poses.

Here is Conner with some of my dad's pumpkins, straight from his garden.

This is the work of our tornado, Brayden. Conner was in my room helping me fold laundry and this is what we found when we came back out into the front room. Not only was the "artwork" all over Porter's face, but also on top of his had and all over his arms, and all over the wall.

Brayden had a little tricycle that broke and so the boys have been having to share this one bike. At first they fought over who got to ride it, but then they came up with this. I knew they could share.

We had quite the excitement at our house last month. The boys wanted to go outside to play and as they opened the front door I heard people yelling outside. I walked out to see what was going on and saw quite a few people on the street looking in the direction behind our house. I walked over to edge of our house and saw this. I took the boys back in the hosue and we were able to get these next few pictures from the boys window. The rocks and weeds you see are the backyard to our 4-plex. Almost too close for comfort. Needless to say, the people who lived in this house moved out about 3 weeks later. I am not sure how the car started on fire, but as Lance says, cars don't spontaneously combust.

In this one you can't even see the car anymore.

Look at the damage on the house. The car is probably 3 or 4 feet from the house.

Lance's Aunt Diane (Lance's dad's sister) came in from Florida for a few days last month. We were able to visit with her for only an hour, but it was great.

I had to get one with her nephews. It is too bad that two of Lance's brothers are missing from the picture.

Here is Aunt Diane with her new great-nephew, Porter.

For Labor day our family went down to my grandpa's cabin in southern Utah. We had a great, relaxing time. Here is Grandpa and Porter just relaxing on the front porch swing.

Grandma and Conner fell asleep after a "hard" day at the cabin.

Lance and the boys at the fire pit. We were able to roast marshmellows 2 nights in a row. I was in heaven.

Here is Conner's marshmellow face.

Here is Brayden's. Who wins for the messiest face?

Brayden loved playing on the playground in the backyard.

Conner loved going on rides on the 4-wheeler. He almost looks big enough.

Porter is starting to sit up on his own. He still is a little unstable, but he is doing pretty good.

He even wanted to sit up in his car seat.

Here is Conner looking so cute.

Another one of Conner.

Brayden's new thing is to take every pillow and every blanket that we own and put them all into a big pile. He calls it his tent. Here is one of the many that he has made. Notice Porter laying in the bottom left hand corner. He likes to include Porter in his tent, so I have to keep a really good eye on him so Porter doesn't get covered up.

Lance playing with the boys on their bikes.

Lance was fixing the boys bikes and they had to get right in there to help.

I got Porter giggling.
