After getting all decorated we found the Santa hats and the boys had some fun with them, I had to let everyone see them!!
Little Santa, and mommy!
Blind Santas...
Cute Santa that wanted to attack the camera! One of our Christmas Traditions every year is to go cut a fresh tree out in the great out doors. We go with Ben and Andrea and the boys every year as well, usually the day after Thanksgiving! This year we actually had some snow to walk through, but it was great fun! Wyatt got some snowballs thrown, and we found our tree first, we usually take for ever! But this year we had some furniture rearrangements and we are putting our tree in a new spot so we had to go skinny... Tim didn't mind, he had to carry it down the mountain! Ben and Andrea's tree on the other hand was a 20 footer!! Lots of FUN!
We had some serious fun on Thanksgiving and last weekend for the Erickson Christmas Party!! Wyatt had cousins he could run and play with, and Mom and Dad didn't even have to be there by his side all day!! This is Riley pushing the kids, Cole, Wade, and Wyatt! He got his exercise in!
If there was space for Wyatt on the go-cart he was on it! Jace did a great job driving! We also got to shoot clay pidgins out in the Field and I even got a few... Tim got more than a few!!
Cole and Luke hanging out on the flat bed watching the other kids play in the goat pen on the toys!!
Wyatt played hard and long, and by the time we made it home there was no waking him!! The second weekend in November we took a trip with my Brother, Ben, and his wife Andrea and the boys, as well as our friend Brenda and Zach to City of the Rocks!! We had so much fun, it turned out to be a beautiful day. We set up a Zip line and rock climbed as well. Wyatt had so much fun on the zip line and playing with the cousins... this will have to be done again! Thanks Ben for bringing all of the gear and expertise!
I had to write about some of my "Mommy Milestones"!! The boys are getting so big, so fast! Luke has 2 teeth on the bottom and eats everything in sight! He has been crawling since September, and now he is holding on to things and walking along them, it seems like he is learning faster than Wyatt, but maybe he has some more encouragement because he wants to be like Big Brother!
Wyatt is getting smarter everyday as well! It is fun to hear all of the things he says and wonder where he got it from! He is still obsessed with planes and reminds us of it everyday! He has been potty trained since Halloween, and he wakes up 19 out of 20 days dry! This has been one of the best milestones in my opinion!!
The 2 of them interact so well also, Wyatt can make Luke laugh and giggle like no one else and they love to with be each other! Best Buds!!!
What a wonderful Halloween! We went to Aunt Trish's house for her annual Halloween party! We went as Dorthy, The Scarecrow, The Tin Man, and The Lion! Lots of fun!
We even got to go out in her neighborhood, and Wyatt realized how fun this thing is! We got back to the party, and he sat down in the middle of the room and started on the candy! So much for dinner! 
Luke was blessed by Tim on the 25th of October at our home, this is Nana and Luke minutes before the blessing.... so much excitement!
Older Cousin, Kadin, and Luke!
Grandpa, and Luke!
We went to the Scarecrow festival a couple weekends ago with our friends Brenda, Zack, and Mylee! Wyatt and Mylee got their faces painted, Wyatt got a elmo...
And Mylee became a kitty!
Tim also got to take Wyatt on a go-cart ride!! Lots of fun and games, as well as the big blow up toys that Wyatt, and Tim couldn't get enough of! 
Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Crookston!
Catalyn and Stephen were married in the Salt Lake Temple on the 11th of November! It turned out to be a beautiful day, and then the reception was at the DATC in Kaysville. Catalyn looked gorgeous!! This is Luke in his Tux, he looked cute as well!
The cake was soooo... pretty!
And of course there was lots of fun! 
Tim has decided that he loves to can many different kinds of foods! In the past 3 weeks we have canned: salsa, marinara, tomatoes, relish, strawberry jam, peach jam, jalapeno jelly, spicy cauliflower, 3 different kinds of grape juice, pears, and pear sauce, and we have a case of apples waiting to be made into pie filling, and apple sauce! We are enjoying doing it though, and we are getting some food storage out of it!
This week has been especially busy because Catalyn, Tim's little sister, is getting married on Saturday! Last night we got to go to the Bountiful Temple with her and it was very nice! It's hard to get out to the temple much lately with the boys and no time, but when we do get to go it is that much better! Now we are looking forward to the dinner on Friday and the wedding on Saturday at the Salt Lake Temple! I get to dress up all fancy, and I even got some new shoes to go with the dress!!
As for the boys, they are doing well! Wyatt is slowly getting the idea of the toilet, and new words come out of him daily! But he is out growing nap time, except when he is just so tired he falls asleep were he is playing, that is cute! 
Luke started to sit on his own about a month ago, and then last Saturday during General Conference he decided to start crawling! He still thinks that big brother can do no wrong, and is the funniest person alive! And Wyatt tells him often that he loves him, with a big hug and kiss!
This is Wyatt with his fun glasses he got from the doctor at Luke's 6 month visit! He loves to go to the doctor, because of all the fun things she has, and of course the sucker you get on the way out!
Luke is also LOVING food! I have yet to find one thing that he will not devour!! He got his first strawberry the other day at a wedding reception and he fell in love! Taking after Big Brother!
So that has been our life for the past few weeks and hopefully it slows down a little in the near future!
Wyatt and Luke in their jammies, Wyatt wanted to hold him for a minute! Wyatt is such a good big brother. He loves Luke so much, and Luke loves him, Wyatt can be doing anything and Luke will smile and laugh at him! We have been lucky to have such wonderful, cute, guys!!
Wyatt was playing with Luke in their room. He piles up the toys around him and shares very well!
We had some sick guys in the house this weekend! Tim and Luke have bad colds so we stayed home all day on Sunday and took it easy!! (Ya right Tim doesn't know how to do that!) He played his game on the computer until the boys took naps and then we canned pepper jelly, peach jelly, and strawberry jelly! We had a good time and who new how much that can help a cold with all of the steam from the pots in the house!!
Matt and Shantel invited us to come to the Air Force Museum on Saturday for a Car Show and Open Airplane Show! We had so much fun! This was right at the end of the day and he just zonked out! How cute!
Me and Wyatt, this was my favorite plane!
The fam at a good picture moment with the plane in the background and the cars!
Matt and Wyatt taking a look at a really cool Jet!
This car was cute, and just the right size for Wyatt, he liked it cause he could see in the windows!
They even had Air Force One!
Tim and Wyatt
They had a fun area for the kids to play with toy planes and dress up!
Tim liked this car because it is a '69 Thunder bird, and he has one of the same in a field somewhere up North, it just doesn't look this nice!! (Some Day!)
Tim and Wyatt in a large airplane!

Tim, Wyatt, Matt, and Shantel... are you ready to jump?
This was the biggest plane they had! Watch your step!
