Happy Birthday Flag





Fourth of July is our family's favorite holiday. We had a blast at Sylvan park watching Gram play in the Redlands 4th of July band. Then we came home and bbq then went swimming. Collin slept through all the illegal fireworks going off around our house while Nathan oohhed and aahhed. Nathan even held his own sparkler this year while I nervously watched.

Father's Day

This is my Dad . . . Walter Dave Wyler. He is one amazing guy. Full of energy and fun. I'm told he was up with the sun and out riding his bike when he was little. I hope my boys are just like him. Here he is with my Grandpa, whom I love and miss so much.


There's no doubt that my Dad loves my mom, he has since they were 16. I'm grateful for all they've taught me, it has helped me become the wife and mother I am today.

When I was little I remember my dad telling me I could do anything a boy could do. He motivated me to set my standards high and to be my best. He always expected A's on my report card and I will always be grateful that he pushed me so hard to get a good education.
My dad has and still does work hard to provide for our family. But when he isn't working hard, he's playing hard. We always took the best family vacations, usually to Mammoth where we'd fish, and camp and hike. I'm glad he instilled a love for nature in my life.
My last semester at BYU my dad drove up to Provo to help me move all my stuff home. He was there for a few days, we went skiing/snowboarding together and had so much fun. I'll never forget that trip and how close I think it brought us together. It wasn't until I was older and especially after having my own children that I realized how much my Dad loves me and how much he sacrifices to make sure I'm happy. He is so generous. There's never been a day that I haven't felt safe and loved. Thank you Daddy. I love you and Happy Father's Day!

A Great Weekend!


Well last weekend started with Collin's 4 month check-up. He weighed 13 lb. 2oz and is 25 3/4 inches. He's so much taller than Nathan was.




We also bbq'd with my parents and went and saw Night at the Museum 2 at the drive-in. I love the drive-in. Nathan can be loud and it doesn't bother anyone not to mention the movie was hilarious.
On Monday we took Collin to his first Angel's game. We all had so much fun, everyone except the Angel's, they lost. They lost real bad :-( At least I got a cute picture of my boys.

Best Mother's Day Ever! Ryan got me tickets to go see the stage show, Dirty Dancing at the Pantages theater. Some of you might not be so excited, but I absolutely love this movie; I have since I was a little girl . . . weird I know but Ryan knows this and is the best husband ever for taking me to see it. I'll be sure to tell you all how wonderful it was after I see it.

Easter Fun


My mom has made a bunny cake every year since I was born. Now it was my turn. Cute huh?





On Easter we went to church at my parent's ward and then had lunch with them. Next we headed over to Ryan's grandparent's house for a yummy ham dinner. Nathan had a blast hunting eggs three different times and eating way too much candy. Watching him get so excited about the Easter bunny is fun but I think my favorite thing about Easter was the message Bishop Ferry gave in Relief Society. He shared a story about a woman who was over burdened, who felt like she was doing all she could but still wasn't really happy. Her husband told her All she could do was her best and then turn the rest over to the Savior. He is there to make up the difference for us, in him we find true peace and happiness.
