Austin's One!

Austin turned 1 on the 7th! I can't believe he's one already, my baby sure has grown up fast! He is such a happy guy! He loves chasing his brothers around the house, throwing balls, and giggling at the crazy things his brothers do. We are so lucky to have him!

Brothers

He did the best I've ever seen with his cupcake. Took it into his two fists and started packing it in! No hesitation there.

Love you little man!

December

Ok, I know I am way to late to blog about christmas/December, I am a horrible blogger, but what can I say? I'm just going to blame it on the the kids. We had at blast a grandma and Grandpa Hastings, here are just a few of the highlights.

Making Gingerbread houses (still in Seattle) Not sure why Carter is wearing a neclace.

Acting out the Nativity. Always a Christmas favorite!

Sledding with Cousins! Brandon didn't really Love this ("Snow is not my favorite season" he says)
But Carter got to be quite the daredevil going down the slopes, would laugh when he wiped out and had an all -around great time

4-wheeling with Daddy. Fun, fun times in Wyoming.

plane ride

Ryan's Dad was nice enough to take us on a little ride in his plane. None of us had ever been in a small plane before and it was so fun. It was a beautiful sunny day and the valley was absolutely georgeous from the view up above. I must have snapped 100 pictures, but I'll just share a few.


Carter and Brandon both fell asleep right after take off. I think the noise and lull of the plane just put them right out. It was kind of nice, that way I could just sit back and enjoy the view.

Breathtaking

Here is Ryan when his dad let him "take the wheel" for a minute. I was pretty nervous at this point!
