Linden Finally Meets His Cousins!

So I am playing catch up because I have a plan since I am getting to be horrible at scrapbooking to have my blog made into a book. So yes, I have to go back to winter. Life has been a little crazy at our house since Christmas, but I finally have a minute to blog. My sisters will be ecstatic. Here you go Nat and Whit.

Linden met Dustin, Chris, Brooke, Ethan, and Garett for the first time. He loved them and I think they need to move back. They were great with Linden. I need a good babysitter like Brooke!!!

Grandpa's 80th Birthday!

Grandpa Linden Beckstead celebrated his 80th Birthday and we had a surprise party for him. The top picture is Ryan with his dad, brothers and grandpa.

First Softball Game!

Linden was all decked out to watch his first softball game. He actually left the hat on for the entire game.

Our Flood!

We had a flood in our front yard. Yes, Ryan and Linden are in our canoe and it was deep enough that they are floating. They actually floated to our neighbor's house. The ground was still frozen so the melting snow from a nearby field flooded our neighborhood.

Nascar!

Linden's first Nascar Race. He loves watching cars so him and daddy were pretty glued to the race.

He was glued until he found the snacks. According to Ryan, Nascar and snacks go hand in hand. Unfortunately for Linden, he was unable to feast on the snacks. He loves to eat!!

Winter Fun!

We went to Hardware Ranch with Quinn & Kristy on Valentine's Day. Linden loved riding on the sleigh and looking at the elk.



Ryan has been very busy with school this semester, but I made him take a break one Saturday so Linden could play in the snow. They made snow angels and we made a sled out of a Tupperware lid so Linden could have the experience. We're not sure what he thought!!





We attended the annual Beckstead Christmas party and had a great time. Linden participated in his first musical chairs game and got a chance to hit the pinata. I think Daddy was particularly glad for the chance to help Linden because he is so old and hasn't had a chance to hit it for a while. It goes from youngest to oldest.
