So, this video isn't the best because Hyrum kept running around Brett, so it was impossible to get them in one screen. But, I had to show you our favorite game. I hold onto Noah and he and Hyrum chase each other around. They both always end up laughing hysterically. Even though you can't see the whole thing I just love listening to them laughing. (excuse the weird clothes. . it was Sunday; 1/2 pj's, 1/2 church clothes)

2 Years
I can't believe how much time has past. Hyrum was born 2 years ago on July 5th. The night before Brett and I watched the fireworks. Brett convinced me that I needed to stop 'nesting' for one night and play a dice game with him, because I wasn't going to have my C-Section for another two weeks. I would only play if he would paint my toe nails. It was a deal. . . I even got him to do 4 coats with sparkles! Anyway, that was the night my water broke. Surprise! Our lives were so different then. I'd like to say they were simpler. . .but life was really just missing the best part. Hyrum has changed us for the better. He makes us laugh every day. He's so smart, funny, and spontaneous. . .full of surprises just like the very beginning. 
He prefers to eat his sugar cookies frosting first, which usually means a big mess on his face. 
One of his favorite things to do is RUN, usually he says 'running. running. running. . . '
Here he's playing with some of his new toys. I loved how he wanted his dog 'Bowny'(Browny) to ride with him.

4th of July Weekend
It was a great patriotic weekend starting with. . .
The PGB (Partridge Golfing Brothers)
The annual BBQ of goodness. It started with great food and then fun relay games followed by resting the full bellies on the nice grass.

4 Months
On June 20th Noah turned 4 months old! Time has really flown by. I can't believe how fast he's growing. At 4 months he's as cute as ever. Noah is literally the happiest baby in the world. . . he does have his moments, but 90% of the time he's smiles and girgles. He loves playing with and eating his feet. He's rolled over about a dozen times over the past couple of weeks, but hasn't quite mastered it yet. Noah is very alert, curious, and cuddly. I love his little personality already.

Rushton Reunion - Part 2 Activities
We had some fun activities. One of the nights was a kids dress up night. The girls were all wearing super cute princess outfits and the boys had Super Hero and cowboy outfits. They had so much fun. . . except for maybe Noah, he was confused by it all:)
One of the afternoons we went bicycling on these cool things. Our legs were a little tired, but it was fun. 
Of course, being on Bear Lake, we did actually get out in the water too. We rented 2 Jet Ski's, a canoe, a paddle bike, and a paddle boat as a group for a couple of hours and just took turns on everything. That was my favorite activity. Hyrum loved throwing sand and rocks in the water, but when we finally convinced him to get on the canoe he had a really hard time getting off! Yes, Brett did let him paddle the canoe. . . and yes, he had to fish it out of the water a couple of times.

Bear Lake Rushton Reunion - Part 1
My family all rented a big house to live in for the three day extravaganza. It was really fun being all together. We had different activities to do every day, but for the most part it was a relaxing, do-what-you-want kind of time. Although every night we did have a family night all together from 'Grandma and Grandpa.' 
We realized that there were no plugs in any of the tubs, so Noah and Troy filled the sinks. 
Bear Lake was so beautiful!!! It was great being outdoors. Hyrum LOVED the wide open space.

The Boys Are Back in Town
Ok, I have at least 6 posts I need to do before it backs up to much, so in the next couple of days be prepared for a plethera. The first Rushton Reunion from my Mom and Dad was held last week and in preparation for that we had some company. My sister Michelle, her husband Scott, and their baby Troy that's just a month younger than Noah. We had a lot of fun with them here. Michelle and I were working on projects like crazy, Scott got to go golfing like crazy, and the boys had crazy fun.
Once Mom and Dad got into town they of course had to show Hyrum how to really eat a watermelon (and yes, he did eat ALL of that plus some dinner):
