Paul went on a training for work to Salt Lake and brought Max back a pop gun. Needless to say Max loves it and Paul loves playing with it with him!!
Max loves to get into the trash, he pulled out a carton of milk that had a little left in it and dumped it on himself. He was just to darn cute to not take a picture of. But on a side note, a trash can with a locking lid is on my wish list!
Brandon and Lindsay and the boys came down for a visit. I just love my nephews, and their family is so much fun. We had a blast!! We visited Paul at the fire station where the kids became fascinated with a video Paul put on, and had a blast playing in the truck and Rhino and getting hats and other stuff!!!
I just love Ethan's toothless grin. How can you not look at that face and instantly fall in love with this kid!!!
Daddy and Max!!!!
I adore this picture!!!!
Grandpa with his grand kids this was the cutest thing ever, I walked out into my parents backyard to find this. I love moments like these!!!
The weather wasn't the greatest while they were here, but one of the days was warm enough to go to the lake and play in the sand. We took Mom and Dad's new four wheelers out for a spin!
The water was so cold I couldn't believe he got in. My child is fearless when it comes to water!! But I guess too cold is too cold, once he fell in he didn't love it as much!! 
Warming up in the sun!!!
My Nephew Ryan on the quad! He is such a cool kid and growing up so fast!!!Isn't that a great background!!!
So after Brandon and Lindsay left we had a little while before we went for a visit to Boise, for Paul to test for the fire department. So here are a few pics of Max and his personality shining through. I honestly couldn't love this kid anymore, but every day he does something new that makes me smile and just love his personality even more!! So he was in my closet and Paul and I were laying on the bed and he walked out with my head band, so I put it on him!!! He instantly turned into a Rock Star! is he not a miniature version of Bret Michals? Just a little eye liner and maybe a few extension and a cowboy hat and we have a clone!! Anyway he started jumping on the bed and I started singing "He's a Maniac, Maniac...." and he danced his little heart out it was hilarious!!
Okay so on to Boise! Can I just say if I moved here I would be so happy!! I love Shawnacy and Russ's kids they are the coolest most laid back kids ever!! they are so much fun to be around. I would have built in baby sitters that I totally trust, and I could coach their basketball and volleyball teams and watch all their other athletic activities! Anyway we had so much fun on Thursday I took them all out of school and we went to the Zoo, Thursday is half off day at the zoo. Can I just say Amazing deal only $16.50 for all 6 of us to go to the zoo for the whole day!!! And Kennedy being the cute little mom she is packed a lunch for everyone so we didn't have to spend any extra money on food!!! It was truly a great day!!!
Max loved it! he was so tired by the end of the day but would not sleep! I had to force him to go down for a nap when we got home! He loves his cousins and didn't want to miss a second!!!
There was a Goose sitting on a nest next to one of the buildings Max got a little to close and got hissed at and my nephew Kage wouldn't get close enough to save Max from being attacked, so I had to run from across the way to save my child from an angry goose!
Mommy and Max in front of my favorite animal!!!
Cousins!!!
Pretty sure you are not supposed to sit on the statues, hence the rope in front of them but this was too cute of a photo opportunity to pass up!!
Max was to tired to walk anymore but not tired enough to fall asleep. So by the time we got to the petting zoo area, he just fed the goats and sheep from his stroller. They kept trying to get hold of his sandwich but failed!!!
Kens in the Turtle Shell!! She is so grown up, ha ha remember when you used to try to make that face in pictures to look cool? Come on admit it I know you all have done it at least once!! I will be the first to admit that I have multiple picture of myself wth that face!!!
Ha ha and Kennedy in the turtle shell!
The Herron Kiddos!!!
When I showed this picture to Shawnacy I said look how cute your girls are in this picture they are trying to look so cute ........and then there's Kage who is trying to be a baby bird and looks .... well i will let you finish that sentence!!! I love you Kager, your a stud!!!!
This Tiger was Huge seriously you forget how big they are until you go back to the zoo and see them again!!!
Max watching the penguins!!!
Kennedy with the penguins!!
Kage & Penguins!!!
Kemi & Penguins!!!
Kens & Penguins!!!
They were draining the penguin cage while we were there so the penguins were able to stand up next to the glass and play with us, it was really cool and we stayed there for quite a while because the kids were enjoying it so much!!We took Max to Mckensey's friends basketball game and he loved watching!
Then the next day we took him to Mackensey's game and Kennedy wanted to play with him out in the hall so when I went to check on him I found this.....It was so adorable and kennedy was so excited that he fell asleep on her. She is such good baby sitter and Max adores her!!!
Here is Kens after her basketball games on staurday (3 games back to back it was a long morning) with her "friend" Marcus she is not allowed to date til she is 16 but I hope she keeps him around long enough for that to happen. He was lots of fun and didn't get to freeked out by hanging out with our family all day!! We had a blast we picked him up early to go to Kensey's games then he spent the rest of the day with us, we went back to the house and did leg wrestling, and arm wrestling and a game we made up called kissy-go-fakey if you would like to know how to play just ask!!! Anyway and watched movies and ate and played spoons, we even played a trick on him and he was such a good sport. He is such a respectful kid not only of Kens but of Russ and Shawnacy to. He must be because if any of you know Russ you know that he is very protective of his girls and he allowed Marucs to hang out and he actually like him also!! It is kinda funny to watch the awkwardness that comes along with high school dating first hand, but so cute!
Anyway on a side note I have to tell a story about my nephew Kage. Boy does my sister have her hands full when he gets older. Kage is such a sweet talker!! the first day I was there I kept the kids out of school, and Kennedy, Kage, Kens and myself got up early to go for a run. While we were running a man in a truck drove by and glanced at us, not in a creepy way just a glance like anyone would do when they dirve by people running down a street. Anyway Kage saw him look and the conversation went like this....
Here you can see his snaggle teeth so well! Poor kid is going to have to go through some major dental work, but I think this is the cutest little mouth I have ever seen! it makes me laugh so hard when he smiles like this because I just don't understand how something that is such a mess can be so dang cute!!! But seriously does this picture not make you want to reach through the screen and squeeze him!!!

Anyway Kage saw him look and the conversation went like this....Kage: That guy is totally jealous of me!!
Me: Why?
Kage: Because i am Running with three really pretty girls!!!
Me: 2 of which are your sister and 1 of which is your Aunt!!!
Kage: it doesn't matter he doesn't know that!!! to him I am like the luckiest guy in the whole world!!!
Kensey: Seriously Aunt Lindsey whenever I need a confidence boost I just hang out with Kage!
I was laughing so hard I couldn't run! what 9 year old says things like that I then continued to learn that he is like that all the time and tells all of his sisters friends stuff like that. He is going to have the ladies crawling all over him someday if he keeps it up!!!
Anyway on the way back from Boise we stopped in Orem and stayed with Paul's Grandma who we don't see very often. I am so mad at myself for not getting a picture of her and Max but I completely forgot! She was so sweet though, she cooked a yummy dinner and breakfast for us and I taught her how to use her DVR!!!
Max was so cute that night at her house. He was being so funny and I couldn't resist putting up this picture there were so many others that were more fun but you could see all of him naked so I opted out!! He is such a little Stud!!!
