1 Year!

That's right, we made it! The boys turned 1, July 26th. What an awesome year. We've learned so much about ourselves, our relationship and babies. We had a rocking party and the following craziness ensued. Becky made a Transformers cake, Spencer was in heaven.
As you can see the boys were so excited they could hardly wait.
The boys enjoyed the cake, but Logan liked the Ice Cream more.


Because of this move Penn got cake up his nose and was sneezing cake for two full days
After a bath and change of clothes it was time to open gifts.
They loved all of their gifts. Spencer and I gave them they big playground balls. They both play catch and roll really well, but I have to say Logan is practically a pro.
We love our boys and are grateful to have them in our lives. They have been a ginormous blessing. We are looking forward to what the next year brings.

Temple Open House

Last week we had the opportunity to visit the new Oquirrh Mt Temple. It's a beautiful temple and it was wonderful to take the boys. We are fortunate to live in a valley with so many temples. You could almost throw a rock from the Oquirrh Mountain Temple to the Jordan River Temple! It's truly a blessing. Logan and Penn talked the whole way through and kept pointing at the pictures of Jesus. Here is a pic of us outside with the family.

Don't Forget the Sunscreen

Summer has officially started here. Now that we have carpet in the basement we are taking time off the serious stuff and enjoying fun summer activities. We are almost through our first can of sunscreen!

We've spent lot's of time in our new pool.
The boys enjoyed their first baseball game. We made it to the 5th inning. Not too bad considering they aren't even one yet.This weekend Spencer wanted to share the joys of a car show with the boys. Just making sure their education is well rounded. This is one of Spencer's top 5 cars a 1966 Chevelle. Explaining the very basics of how a car works. The boys also enjoyed some early birthday gifts during Grandpa and Grandma Davis' visit. So little time so many things to empty. Not just toys, all of the kitchen drawers and dresser draws too.

Tour De Davis

Genes can be tricky things. You never know what is going to appear. Many of you may be surprised to learn that a love for bicycling is in fact genetic. Both Spencer and I love to cycle. We watch the Tour of France every year, we love long rides and have even completed a metric century. Turns out the boys got that gene. We busted out some tricycles and they took to them like fish in water.
Consider this a fair warning to all of our friends and family. You have a few years to get your bikes out, tuned up and ready to go cause these little veloists are going to need some company!

The riders with a few fans. These particular fans were a little fanitical about the riders, it's a good thing we love them!



The guys have been working on fixing our front step, this was plan A. I think plan H is the one that worked. You have to admire their persistence. That may be genetic as well.

It Stayed In!

Logan is a very observant and cautious little boy right now. This is esp true when it comes to his food. If it isn't pureed then it can't be good. Puffs, bread crumbs, green beans, mushed banana ... all too chunky. We tirelessly work to convince him to put it in his mouth but his little tongue always pushes it all out. As his parents we recognize this quirk but still try to encourage him to try things.

I love, absolutely love, spaghetti and hoped this love for pasta would manifest itself in his genes. As you can see my hopes have been crushed.

And then two days ago something changed and his "turkey dinner" stayed in!! This doesn't mean all solids are worthy of his taste buds but we are making progress. Silly little boy
