The Lyman Family

A few pics from Jay's B-day

Jamen's 1st Birthday

Jay turned 1 on October 25th. I have been waiting to post about it until I can download pictures, but if I wait any longer I will probably forget things. We celebrated Jay's b-day on Saturday instead of Sunday because Dallin had a Stake Youth Fireside he was speaking at, and Jamen does not know the difference. We had another family staying with us with their 5 children, so there were plenty of people to sing to him. We gave him a cupcake and let him go to town.
Jay has 6 teeth, he is crawling(in no hurry to walk)loves to play with his brothers(his favorite is Kaden) He has brought so much joy to our family and we all love him so much!
Happy Birthday Jamen!!
I'll post pictures later.

Homecoming and Priesthood Session

Dallin had homecoming on the same night as General Priesthood. So Brett, Dallin and Kaden went to the session then Dallin went out afterwards.

Dallin and his friends asked the girls in a fun way. They had Brett make a cd for each girl. In the cd Brett said the girls were each being asked by a secret agent to go to the dance and it was there job to find out who the agents were. So the girls didn't find out till that night exactly who there dates were(they had a good idea of the group, but not who "they" were going with) Brett picked them up wearing the mask and break dancing on thier lawns. Half of the girls were scared to come out because they had no idea who it was. They found out when they got to the resturant who there dated were.

In our town Homecoming is not a big deal. Most kids wore jeans and t-shirts to the dance, so these guys were really dressed up.

Dallin and Annie

Dallin, Annie, Madison, CJ, Stormy, Kasey, Ali Condos, Hayden, Ali Clark, Jeremy.

I could not ever catch CJ looking at the camera.

Fort Bridger Rendezvous

I finally broke down and took my kids to the Rendezvous this year. They have held it every Labor Day weekend for who knows how long (brett went when he was little) I have lived here for 3 years and been up here on many a Labor Day weekends and never attended. I didn't really care to see a bunch of drunk people running around in loincloths. Well, I was wrong. There were still of few in the loincloths, but for the most part it was really cool. The boys LOVED it, and I even enjoyed it.

Indians danced for the kids.

So many people dressed up, I think I enjoyed that part the most.

Dawson's 6th Birthday

Dawson turned 6 on August 20th. He had a quiet party this year with just our family. He also got a bike, building blocks, Tinker Toys, some art supplies and a few other things.

Don't you love the Christmas wrapping paper??

Coulter Bay and Yellowstone

Brett's family went to Yellowstone National Park in July. Unfortunately Dallin's had youth camp the same weekend so we were not able to go (I had to take him and 6 other youth down to Monticello, Ut)

Brett was quite brave to take all the kids(even Jay) by himself. We were thinning he would have plenty of help, but Jamen would not go to anyone except for my sister-in-law Char. It looks like it was so much fun! I am sad I missed out (not to mention 5days without my baby drove me absolutely nuts)

Here is a picture of the whole family(minus Dallin and I of coarse)

Dawson does not look like he was a huge fan of the cooking.

The fam. waiting for Old Faithful.

The Jr. Rangers. Easton and Dawson could not stop talking about it when they saw me.
