30!

Scotty turned 30 on the 24th. I can't believe how old we are getting. He looks and feels better than ever though:) I want to publicly say that I am so grateful he was born, he truly is the best and he is so perfect for me. I can't ever get over the fact that we made such a huge decision to get married when we were so young, and it has worked out better than I ever imagined.
Scott is the hardest worker I know.I always want to know what he is thinking because the clocks are always turning in his head; Whether it is a new idea or an improvement to one of the many he is working on. He has an amazing talent for balancing many things and is always productive.He wears me out just watching him. He is all about self improvement and always open to suggestions which I am working on not taking advantage of;) He always sets time aside for his spiritual growth as well, and I have always admired that. He is so so so strong where I am weak and I am always trying to be more like him. Shout out to my Birthday Boy and Best Friend Ever!

Big 4 year old now

It's official...Gavin is 4 years old now... he even proved it by waking up this morning,changing his own pullup and into his Big boy pants and got dressed all by himself before coming out of his room. This may seem like a small task but we have been working on this one forever.(Well, Scott has)Now if only we can get through the night without a pull-up.
He had his Big day on March 2nd and had a fun filled Day. He had his first party with friends at Monkey Island and of course I forgot my camera. They all had a blast!That night we had a family party with his requested Scooby Doo cake. I couldn't find a store bought one so Natalia gave me the idea of putting Scooby Grahm snacks on a chocolate cake.It was kind of interesting looking, but he loved it!I always think I am going to end up with a masterpiece when I bake and it usually turns out to be a dissasterpiece.Blowing out his candles took many attempts,wish I would have gotten it on video.It was so cute:)
We love our Gavin so much!He is all boy but has so much love in his heart.I can't believe he is 4!

Gavin's Field Trip to the Pizza Factory

Gavin had a preschool field trip to the Pizza Factory. Gavin loved it because they got to see the behind the scenes part of the restaurant. The owner took them on a tour and showed them how the pizza and bread sticks are made and then they got to eat what they made afterward. The bread sticks are sooo yummy:0)

Quick holiday Update

Finally posting on our holidays.I pretty much felt like there was no time to breathe most of December until we got into Boise and we were able to relax. Never Ever a dull moment at the Taylor household. We spent our time playing games, Eating a ton, competing with our scores on the XBox Kinect, watching movies,football,and much more fun! On Christmas eve we went caroling and acted out the story of Christ's birth,uncle Mark told the Grinch Stole Christmas Story, and we opened our PJ's and ornaments from Mom. Christmas Day was full of fun surprises and gifts and most importantly love and quality time together.Thanks Mom and Dad for everything we really enjoyed our time there!
We got the best of both worlds because We were able to spend New Years eve with Scott's family. Everyone but Kurt and Lacey and Lisa. It's the same story with the Schwab's.Never a dull moment. I love our families and I am grateful that we have so much support and can spend fun quality time with them. Thanks so much to the Schwab's for coming to hang at our place to ring in the New Year! Cheers to 2011!
Here are some pic's from the holidays!

In Memory of Grandpa Lowell Taylor

My Grandpa Lowell passed away last night due to health complications. He went peacefully though, which I am grateful for.We were able to visit him the end of October which is when we took this photo. I am so glad that we stopped to see him:) You never know what lies ahead. Embrace those that you love and cherish every moment.

Ugly Sweater Partay!!!

We went all out for an ugly sweater party. What do you think?Thanks Rockwood'e for a fabulous time!

Picture Time!

Since there is so much to catch up on I figure that pictures can kind of tell the story. We have been very busy lately and have had a lot of fun, which is a good thing... but unfortunately we did not get pictures of some key events. We had a fabulous fall and have really enjoyed winter so far as well!I will try to keep posting so I don't get so far behind again:)
