October weekend with Griff!

I am definitely happiest when Griffin is around. And this was a fun weekend!

Amy put together an awesome Halloween party for the kids and Griff had a total blast (even though he got in trouble for scaring little Blakers with his Yoda mask)!


Yoda Griff! He even had the voice down, it was so awesome, I was cracking up. He was saying "May the force be with you" and "The force is strong with this one" and "There is do or do not, there is no try." And he had the light saber working too! Perfect Griff costume.

This might be one of my favorite pics of all time. Yoda and Cinderella, and Cinderella is holding Yoda's arm. At first Q and W were a little freaked out by the Yoda mask, but once they knew it was Griff, they loved it.



Here's the whole Gang (L to R) Quincy, Maia (Dave's Cousin), Griffin, Ozkar (Dave's cousin), Jaxon, Kaja, Blake and Cowboy West in front. Good Looking group of kids!!!

You can see the Utes game we went to in the post below - and then Griff and I just had some nice father and son time. I need a lot more of it, but I certainly treasure the little bit I have.



A little church time - Griff definitely picked the right Sunday to come home, they had a full on picnic lunch in Primary with Turkey sandwiches, chips and candy bars. They had Capri Sun to drink and apparently, Griff is the only kid in America that doesn't like Capri Sun?!?!?



Had to do a goofy face pic.




Getting ready to get on the plane for Texas. He's an old pro at flying now, and he'll tell everyone within earshot. Awesome kid.

Griff's First Utes Game!!!

It's hard to believe that Griff hadn't been to a Utes game before this, but in previous years, somehow it just never worked out. I was SO excited to take him, and he was stoked too. He's looking forward to playing football so he's been excited to watch game. And what team is better to watch than the Utes? I say none!!! And we got to wear ponchos, I mean come on, how do you beat that!?!?!?!

I give you, Griff's first game:


Matching beenies and hoodies to stay warm! Griff had worn his all day (except when he was Yoda)


Griff had to have a pic with the Ute Van. In all fairness, he didn't notice the part that says, BYU Sucks...but I certainly did - hahaha.


Chillin in our Ponchos! It was a really wet game til the 3rd quarter and then it dried out and warmed up a little...


And there was a rainbow right above the game. And, as you can see by the look on his face - Griff was a bit cold. Maybe next time - long johns too.



Touchdown right in front of us! Actually, there were a lot of these, it was 59-6 - Utes over the Rams.

Definitely going to make this a yearly tradition with Griff, along with our Utes basketball game! Love having a son, it's the best.
