Tree Hunting

Once again...a very short post of a glimpse of what's going on with the Root family!

Christmas is upon us, so that brings the annual tree hunt! Peyton loved being outside hiking around in the snow! (The pics are kinda in reverse order but no time to fix) Life is GREAT and so fun having the little man around! Peyton isn't crawling yet, but very close, he still manages to get wherever he wants to go (usually to the tree) by rolling! You turn your head for one sec and he's gone! LOVE IT!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

Boo!

Yay! Halloween again! Jake and I were 80's rockers (Jake looked more like Chris Angel) and I thought Jake looked really hot! Is that weird?! Peyton was our little OWL!!!! He was such a good sport, he didn't even mind the mask!

Heading up to grandpa & grandma's door to trick or treat!

Do you like Jake's tatoos? Ha ha

We took a video of him jumping like this and it makes his wings look like he's trying to fly!! I couldn't get it to work on here but you get the idea!Mohawk anyone? Jake is watching football in the background...totally zoned!

Sweet shoes! I had a pair just like these growing up! Crazy thing is that they are selling brand new ones like these today!

Cute little sleepy Halloween pjs mommy found before I was born...she didn't know I was going to be such a chubby boy, they are almost to small!

Runway Baby

Peyton had his 6 month pictures taken! Well they turned out to be at about 6 1/2 months but whatever...here are just a few of our SUPER CUTE BOY!!!!!!!! Thanks again Emily!

Summer Catch up!

We can't believe summer is over and it's back to school! But...football season is here so there are still things to look forward to! So, here is a brief look at how the rest of our summer went...

Peyton's First Haircut

(We just had to get rid of the mini mullet in the back)

Pressure washing the fence & planting our garden!

(after)

The "fruits of our labor"...this was just the first watermelon! We have had 2 more & 1 on the way! Yummy!

2 rodeos this summer, 1 fair, 1 parade & 1 outdoor concert (Blake Shelton)! He LOVED it, thanks to some ear plugs!

Family reunion in Ogden during Pioneer Day weekend, so much fun!! (Peyton really did like the rodeo we were at, he was just so focused on the cowgirls!)

Hanging out with some of the 2nd cousins...these 3 are all within 3 months of each other!

4th of July= car show, fireworks, bbq, cute shoes :)

Favorite toy! Thanks again Amber & Blake

First time with cereal!!! He loves it!! Yes, I know the bowl is huge, but we have new little ones now and a high chair!

Rolling and play time!! He is getting so big! He laughs and smiles all the time, we love this little man!

Anyone seen the movie the Ringer? Yes, Jake has shorts on!

First Camp out!!

Our first camp out!! Peyton was such a champ, and he did so well that we will for sure be going again this summer! We went with the Roots up to Arrow Rock Reservoir, which is a beautiful lake! The sad part is that we didn't get to use the boat! Come to find out, no one winterized it so the engine cracked!!! Jake is really not happy cause now we have no access to a boat and if only someone would've told us last winter, we would've paid to have it done. Anyway...Peyton did great and we did have fun with the family aside from the boat. :)

Oh yeah...we did hear two drunk people crash their boat into the shore at 1:00am!!! No one was hurt but they almost hit some other people's tent!

Memorial Weekend

We had a wonderful weekend full of family and friends! The week started off with Paul and Kristi's wedding! It was such a sweet sealing, fun luncheon and beautiful reception! Since we had so many family members in town, we decided to bless Peyton while everyone was here. Jake did such a wonderful job. How blessed and grateful I am to be married to a great worthy Priesthood holder! We had a brunch after church at mom & dad Hadfield's house with all our family! It was so nice! On Monday a group of us went to Eagle Island State Park and swam and had a picnic! It was such a busy, full weekend, but it was so fun to have a big gathering of family members! My only regret is that I didn't get very many pictures of everyone!

The newlyweds!

Daddy & Mr. PJ all dressed up for the reception! Isn't his bow tie adorable!

Blessing day! I'm SO SO SO bummed that we didn't even get a picture with the Roots when they got there!

Eagle Island...my aunt Sheila bought this cute pool for my cousin's baby Casch to play in, but he was nice & shared it with Peyton!

Just hanging out with my cousin Melayna! Aren't we both so cute!

Taking a break from the busy weekend to show off my nice bod with my daddy!

After such a busy weekend we all were so pooped! Even grandpa Hadfield!
