Visit to McCall

We went to visit Grandpa Griffiths in McCall, ID and had a great time fishing, hiking, and playing at the beach. The scenery was beautiful as always. Teagen had the most fun building sand castles and knocking them all down.

Fishing like a pro

A good haul of trout!!

Caught talking to the fish.
 "What you doin' fishy, fishy?"
 Oh what a funny guy!

Temple Trips

This spring has been wonderful most of all because we were able to be sealed as a family. It is such a great feeling knowing that we will be able to be together forever. Teagen was especially excited to be able to go to the temple with us in St. George, Utah.  He told everyone including strangers about our trip to the temple. Both temples were especially beautiful but I have to admit the St. George one was just amazing. I am so proud of how far Dustin and I have come as husband and wife and can't wait to continue our journey together.

Crockin' Good Times

The Crock Pot King!!

Teagen loves, loves, loves to help me cook. He loves to make crock pot dinners the most. Every morning he tells me first thing that we need to make a "pock pot". Since using the crock pot makes easy and less messy dinners, I am all for going along with his plans. He has gotten so good at helping me with them that he has even got some of the recipes memorized and knows which setting they need to cook on. I am always so impressed. Hopefully, we will have a future chef in the family or at least I know that he can help his future wife with the cooking.

More Sayings

Angry Birds is known as "Hungry Birds"

The Chiropractors Office is actually the "Cracker Office" :)

"You're a Hound dog!!"- Says this to everyone

Before we went to the temple, he told strangers "I'm going to the temple!" They had no idea what to say unless they knew what that meant. The lady that did his hair just completely stopped talking to us after he said that :)

Teagen: "Mama are you tired?" me: "Yes, very. Are you?" Teagen: "No way, I'm up and at it now."

Sweet Little Sayings

Here are a few of the cute things Teagen is saying right now. Thought I should jot them down before I forget them. They make me smile and I instantly remember why I love him so dang much, especially after he has done something naughty.

1. While talking to daddy and pointing at me, "That's my girl."

2. "I'm not a sunshine (or any cute name I call him), I'm a Teagie!"

3. "Whatch you doin?"

4. "I don't know" -This is cute because he only says it after the fourth time I have asked him what he is saying or talking about. He just says it because he gets sick of explaining or restating :)

5. "Hello Snake"-Talking to his toy rubber snake

6. "Hello Bob" -Apparently the name he gave to his backhoe or dump truck. Haven't yet figured out which one. Maybe they are both Bob...

7. As we are entering the NDSU Equine Center, "This is Heaven!"

8. "Ugh, I'm a STARVIN' MARVIN!"

9. As he pushes my head to Dustin's in a group hug, "Two mamas, two mamas." Dustin really appreciates that one :)

10 "Mama, you're stinky."-after he lets out a huge fart and giggles.

I'm sure I will think of more later and have to add to the list.
