Jamin's Birthday Part 1

I decided to split these posts up because we did things on Jamin's actual birthday and then we had the party on the following Saturday. It will probably take a while to get his party pictures up because I didn't take many so PLEASE email me any that you might have (vanhornfamily7508@gmail.com). I am extremely sad that I didn't get more.

We had small group at our house the night before Jamin's birthday and we carved pumpkins. We decided to carve one for Jamin's party since it was Halloween themed!

This is the pumpkin that our friend Matt carved!

Here is the other one that Kyle carved. I hate carving because I never get it right so I helped prep the pumpkins.

The Big day finally arrived and we were pleasantly surprised by snow on his birthday!!!! We went outside to play in it. Jamin LOVES milk jugs so he is holding it in most of these pictures lol.

Feeling the cold ice

Of course, he had to taste it lol

Mom, I need gloves!

Snow butt!

The night before Jamin's birthday, Kyle and I hung up a happy birthday sign for Jamin! I made it halloween to go with his party theme.

We also installed the forward facing car seat!!! I think he really likes how he rides now!

Making faces into the mirror lol

I think this will definitely become a family tradition. Louie's Pizza for our birthday meals!

Yummy pizza!

Pizza Coma on the way home. Don't get too comfortable buddy, we have cake and a present for you when we get home!

Thankfully, he still had some energy left to stay awake and open his gift! If you can notice in this picture Jamin is holding a balloon. He was way more interested in that than his gift. We finally had to take it away so that he would open his gift lol.

He loves the giant ball at my parents house, so we thought he should have a big blue one!

CAKE TIME!

Tasted pretty good!

The day after his birthday, he carried that silly balloon around all day, literally. He would not let go of it, even to nap and eat. Next time I know just to get him a balloon for his birthday lol.

I ended up having to shorten the string because he kept getting tangled in it and tripping over himself lol

Sun is out...Time to have fun!

I set up a part of our big slip and slide for the boys to have fun with! Mommy, may have went down it a time or two also lol. You can definitely tell a difference in our house when there is warm weather outside! Lots more silliness and fun! Silliness during lunch...Dylin put this bucket on his head and thought it was the funniest thing ever. Some pictures of my handsome man....I love you so much Jamin!

Daddy's Little Helper and Ice Festival

Friday Jamin and I went to visit Kyle and work and took a few pictures! Jamin loved seeing the big trucks and playing in his daddy's office. Daddy's little Helper Writing down important jobs to go look at We think he's gonna be a lefty! Taking over the business This weekend we also went to Cripple Creek for the Ice Festival! We enjoyed seeing the ice scultures and going down the ics slide! My attempt to make peanutbutter-banana-honey sandwiches on the way home...Kyle didn't think I did very well because half of his banana was on the floor of the car :)

Road Trip Part 5

Monday morning rolled around and we decided to make our way from Bozeman down to the West Yellowstone Entrance. The drive was amazingly gorgeous! Just driving in Harvey! We made it to West Yellowstone but were turned away from two different RV parks because of the amount of kids we had with us. This was the first time I have ever felt looked down upon and discriminated against. I literally had one man ripped a piece of paper out of my hands because he didn't even want to consider letting that many people stay in his park. I explained to him that they are all young and well behaved kids but apparently he has had way too many bad experiences with kids. We didn't let it get us down though. We finally found one that didn't have any concerns letting 4 adults come in with 5 kiddos. The place was actually brand new and the closest RV park to the west Yellowstone entrance so we really lucked out!!! After we got checked in we decided to go into the park ...
