Tyson's first Birthday

We had Tyson's First Birthday party on September 20th, 2008. The party was at Tyson's Grandma and Grandpa Adams's house. We had lots of family and friends there for the big day. Tyson didn't no what to think of all the presents and the cake we put in front of him. We all got a good laugh out of watching Tyson that day. Here are some pictures of the day.

A day with Tyson

A day with Tyson is a day filled with laughing, crying and running. Tyson is almost a year old! Man how time fly's by when your having fun. Tyson is a very hands on kid. He likes to get into anything and everything you have laying around the house. He laughs at you when you run after him and he crys when you finally get him. Now that he has been walking for almost three months he is off to the races. He will run anywhere if you let him. This picture is about as still as you can get Tyson these days. He is so much fun to play with. Kevin and I can't wait for him to start talking, if he's anything like his mom it won't be long.

Our Return from the Beach

This last Weekend we went to the beach with some of our friends. We could not have asked for better weather. The sun was shinning and it was not too cold either. There were just a few passing showers but that was all. We got some great video of Tyson playing at the beach. He loved the sand. We loved running after him. Tyson is such a blessing in our life and to watch him grow and see the awe and wonder in his eyes as he discovers things is amazing. I can't wait to get all our pictures downloaded and printed up so I can see them all. I am so grateful that we live so close to the ocean and we can enjoy the Beauty that our Heavenly Father has given us to see. Kevin and I are already looking at going back to the beach again in the winter. We here that some of the winter storms are fun to watch from inside a warm beach house by the fire. We are also trying to plan a camping trip with our friends for next year. We all enjoy the beach so much, I am sure we will have just as much fun as we did with this last trip.

Getting Ready for the Beach

This weekend we are going to the beach with some of our friends. We are staying in a beach house at Lincoln City. We can't wait for the weekend to get here, it's going to be so much fun. I am learning how to be a good wife and mother by becoming more organized. By this I mean I am trying to keep the house clean and have food on the table when my husband Kevin comes home from work. It's a busy life running after an 11 month old little boy who wants nothing more then to run away from mom. He keeps me on my toes. As for the husband Kevin he is out almost all day killing bugs and small or large mice and rats. It's not the dream job but it pays the bills for now and is getting Kevin through school. He was going to start WSU Vancouver this fall but because there are a lot of classes he can still take at Clark and its cheaper he is staying there for one more year. Our life is on the move all the time. But we love it and we wouldn't trade it for the world.

Our first family blog

Hello everyone! Well, today was very fun filled. Ashley spent the whole day trying to figure out some church stuff regarding the Primary Program and her substitution for Sunday in Primary. She works very hard at that. I, on the other hand, had a wonderful technician filled day loaded with pesticides (it's what i do!). Tyson has had a normal day being full of energy and getting into every single thing he can (- it's very hard to clean and try to keep everything organized with a child of this age running around).
For the exciting news, this weekend we have rented a beach house in Lincoln City. We will be staying there from Friday-Monday with the Fonokalafi's and Jorgensens. Maybe Travis too- we'll see? Other than that, just another boring day in the Couve! Oh, Ashley is a little miffed- last night one of her favorite former Blazers died (Kevin Duckworth)- she really liked him.
