Two amazing little Boys!

So Thanks to Todd, Onjali, Mindy and Darrin(hereto referred to as big D), My nephews were born so close together that their parents decided to have a joint baby blessing. It was an amazing experience! They are both very special boys, and have amazing parents, and uncles(and aunts).

Kai Rae Patterson is on the Left and Owen James Pettingill is on the right.

This is Rochelle and I. It is hard to believe she has been in the famiy for over a decade now!

She is so much fun! She practically introduced the family to Board Games!

All the Pettingill Men

Big D and Myself. This guy is amazing! We are sol lucky to have him in the family. You might wonder why he isn't smiling. He told me just like Dwight, he doesn't show his teeth to anyone.
(if You are laughing you watch the office, if you watch the office and don't get it, you probably don't watch the Office enough, and finally if you don't watch the office you are ...retarded!!!)

Two of the greatest Examples in My life! My Brothers Trevor and Todd.

The Ladies and their little ones.

The Original 5.

Grandpa and Grandma Pettingill with Rylan.

Grandpa Chuck apparently tried to hide whenever I took pictures,

but I did catch him in this one on the right!

Some Random Super model who decided to party crash.

Also you will notice that Dan Grange was unable to attend!

He was sorely missed and we will hopefully see him soon!

The Boys

So I got to see all my nephews this weekend. It was a blast. Unfortunately I don't get to see them enough, which is probably my own fault for not traveling enough!

Carson is growing like a weed! He seems so tall now.


Beckett I have decided is a lot like one of his uncles, very devious.
He i constantly tricking you wit cute smiles and pointing at things,
but when you look away....he is off into something he shouldn't be! Oh and in this picture he is wearing a volleyball shirt!



" THE Kai" is so dang cute. He is a lot of fun and still seems overly fond of his uncle!

Beckett is all smiles here with Anne.

He was a blast the whole weekend.

So this s embarrassing to admit, but this was the first time that I actually met Rylan. He was so much fun, always smiling and laughing, which I heard isn't always the case. He just must of really liked me, which doesn't surprise me. I find I connect really well with kids. We are just on the same level ;-)!

My nephew Owen!

Carson is such a good older brother. He was very helpful the whole weekend.

Beckett is pondering how to take over the world!

The Boys were a blast all weekend. I can't wait till they are older and we can play some sports!

Tribute to Addison and Evee Kate (The Two Cutest Girls in the World)

So I got to go to Utah for my nephews baby blessings and

while I was there I got to spend a lot of time with my nieces!

They were so much fun! Here is a few pictures of them

Addison Rolling down a grass hill.

Evee loves water. She kept trying to take her clothes off for some reason and she was crying like crazy when Todd had to redress her. Fortunately I offered her a cup of water and she immediately was smiling and wanted to water the trees!

Addison and I played checkers at the park. It was a pretty short game for a couple of reasons. First off we didn't have pieces, which apparently wasn't a problem because Addy said we could pretend. Secondly, her first two moves were to immediately move her pieces to become kings, (she said mine couldn't do that) About 3 moves later she informed me that she had won and asked if I wanted to play again!

On the 4Th, we went to a park to relax and there were some small rides.

Evee just loved the airplanes

Evee was so funny trying to put on her glasses.

She kept putting them on upside down.

Addy climbed on me for about an hour, with no breaks! She is so much fun!

The tough part was the random dives off me with no notice

and I was expected to anticipate them as well as catch her.

We were doing family pictures,

and I was able to get one with just the two Little girls!

The Deep Blue Sea/15-17ft down in the ocean!!

At approximately 4:30 a.m. Pacific standard time(yes you read that correctly), We got out of bed to begin an amazing adventure. With roughly 25 minutes of pool diving experience, we embarked on a ocean scuba diving voyage.

(yup still dark outside)

Getting out from the house took a little bit of time due to some equipment issues, but we were eventually on the road. When we arrived at the beach it was light outside overcast.

Brian was paticuarly excited about his gloves.

First off you might notice the powerful knife in my right hand. Brian's father stated several times that I wouldn't need a knife. I on the other hand was confident that it was part of the complete scuba diving experience, so I of course insisted.

Here brian and his father were putting the final touches on the equipment.

Sharks and other undesireables beware!




And we made it back in one piece. If you look closely you will notice that in comparison with the other person in the picture(not singling anyone out). I am definitely picking up a tan in California.

Sorry that it is sideways but it is quite entertaining.
