Jaxson turns 3!

One of Jaxson favorite things to do is go on FrontRunner or the train. So I thought that we be fun for his birthday. I met my mom and Clark at Woods Cross Station and then we went to McDonalds and met my cousins. My cousin, Kristina, has a little girl with the same birthday as Jaxson.





Jaxson would get really scared when the other trains would go by, they were really loud.










Then after McDonald we went to Kangaroo Zoo in Woods Cross with Amber and Jaxson's friend, Davis. He had a blast! It wasn't busy so they practically had the whole place to themselves.




Gotta get fueled up.


Jon took half the day off and so it was nice to have him chase Jaxson around.
Jaxson and Davis loved the minature golf course. They must have done it at least 6 times. They are so good at it too.
Jaxson took a good nap after that.

Jaxson's Birthday Party

We had Jaxson's Birthday party on Sunday Oct 31st, because we figured it would be easier to have everyone over on a Sunday. Yikes! Having Trick-or-Treating the day before made for a REALLY busy weekend.

Jaxson loved all of his presents and he even got to have his Grandma Lay be there for his Birthday. She gave him some awesome dinosaurs.


Jon made Jaxson his Train Cake. HE LOVED IT! I thought it turned out really good.




I can't believe I have a 3-year-old!!!

Fire Truck and Ambulance

Joyce invited us to her Mom's group this summer and Jaxson got a treat- A Firetruck and an Ambulance!!


The firemen did a demonstration about fire safety and to get the kids comfortable with the guys in their fireman suits. Ben looked awesome as a fireman!
Then the kids did a walk through the back of the truck.

Then came the Ambulance!




Jaxson was so excited to get his sticker and hat.


I love that he HAD to wear it this way.

Train Park

Once a month during the summer there is a train park in Farmington. We were able to catch the last time they had it in August.
Ben, Abi, and Joyce came with us.

They had a little train ride that we went on.




Jaxson loved the tunnels.





It was super hot that day, but it was worth it. Abi made a friend and got invited to her party. We didn't even know her name. That's Abi for you.

Highlights of October

We went to Jon's grandma's to rake leaves. Fortunatly for us Jon's mom was in town helping his grandma recover from knee surgery, so we got spend time with both of them. Barbara had the kids do this cute activity that made these cupcakes look like eyeballs.



Jaxson drove Hannah and Emily nuts because he didn't keep the pile together.

Jaxson's first Horse ride at Uncle Deans. He loved it!



Jon's work's trick or treat. Zach and his son Carson.

We went to Black Island Farms with Joyce's Moms group. The kids had a blast.

One of Jaxson's favorites: The animal train ride.

They have awesome slides.

Jaxson picked his own pumpkin.
This was the kids waiting patiently for the 'hay' ride to begin.



Every year we go to our friend, Amber's, Hallowen party.
Jon and I were: Jonathan and Martha Kent (superman's parents)
Jaxson: Superman
We went to the ward party and Jaxson had a blast with his friend, Thomas, AKA Batman.



Even Superman gets tired.

Grandma Lay brought this for Jaxson. He was soooo excited!

This was at our friend's neighborhood party. I didn't get any other pictures, because it started to rain about 15 minutes later.
