On Saturday, Nich and I were working on some things in Nich's shop. We had Weston in his play pen, and Gus was out running around the trucks. Everytime Gus would run around the playpen, Weston would try to follow him. I made Gus sit by the playpen, so Weston could pet him. Before I knew it, Gus had jumped into the pen with Weston. Gus just sat there like that is where he belonged. It was really funny! Weston loved it though!
Weston was really quiet a few days ago. So I asked Nich if he knew where Weston was. We went searching through the house, and we found him underneath the Christmas tree opening his presents! Nich took the pictures through the crack of the door so Weston would not see him. He was so sad that he got caught!!
We had the Demuths visit us when they were on their way back to Kansas. Kade was riding Weston's tractor around the house. Weston did not like that! He went chasing Kade until he stopped, and Weston hugged the tractor so he couldn't drive it anywhere else! He loves that tractor! He is definitely Nich's kid!!
The day after Thanksgiving, our family went to pick out our Christmas tree. We could not cut it down this year since there are no pine trees here in Texas. :( Nich was sad that he could not use his chainsaw! But, we did get a really pretty tree!
Decorating the tree was definitely a challenge this year with Weston getting into all of the decorations!! He loved helping out though!
Weston is helping with the lights.
He loves to pull the decorations off of the tree!
Finally, Nich came in distracted Weston as I finished putting the last decorations on the tree.
On Friday, Weston got his 1st haircut. The pictures downloaded in the wrong order. It is all good though. This is Weston in the bathtub after his haircut. He loves taking baths and playing with all of his toys.
After the haircut...Here is Nich giving Weston his haircut. Surprisingly Weston loved the clippers.
On Halloween we went to a Chili Cook off and then a Trunk-or-Treat. Nich made some awesome Chili, cornbread and cobbler. Note- Nich was a Cowboy Cook. I was Dolly Parton and Weston was a Pumpkin.
When we were in Queen Creek, Nich noticed this dead mesquite tree at the church. Not wanting it to be a hazard to the community and really wanting to use his chainsaws, he volunteered to cut it down. So all day we cut down and removed the tree. I probably pulled out hundreds of thorns out from my boots!
Here is the mesquite tree before Nich got to it!
Nich starting to cut down the tree. He had a blast!
We took a trip to Yuma at the beginning of October to visit Nich's family. We had a great time! Weston loved visiting Grandma Kenny, Del, Mima and Granddad! Thanks for having us!
Here is Weston and Mima playing!

On the way home from Grandma Kenny's, we stopped to see the Denver, CO temple. It was so beautiful!! Weston and Nich. Weston found out that he likes taking pictures with his dad. He tries to be big just like Nich!
Weston loves flowers. It probably is the bright colors...

This weekend our family went and visited Great Grandma Kenny in Colorado. We all had a great time listening to stories and spending time with her. Weston loved it there!!

On Independence Day we went to a Tea Party Protest. I was a little hesitant to go at first, but it turned out to be a really good experience. The program was really patriotic.
Weston got an American flag and loved waving it around. He thought he was such a big boy!
