Raiden turned "1" on October 15th 2010

The sun was a little too bright for him.

Always into everything now that he can walk.

 Not a big fan of getting his hands in the cake so one of his Aunts had to do it for him.

I was lucky enough to be able to drive up to St George for Raiden's 1st birthday. They had a family party at the park. It turned out really nice and fun.

Towards the end of the day on Sunday, we were all resting after our hikes. Dylan was eating chips and for some reason, his chair kind of folded up on him and tipped sideways. He did manage to save the chips though.                                                                                                                                             

                                                                                                                                                              This was the second hike I went on. It was a much easier hike for me. I went with  Andy, Steve, Chris, Abby, and little Graciella. I was able to keep up with them better than I would have if I had gone with Dave and the Pavones again. They went on the same hike as the day before, but farther.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   

Dave called this the 'Hotel Pavone'. Their tent is bigger than it looks here. I think it's either 3 or 4 rooms. It slept 3 kids and 3 adults.                                  Jennifer was whittling something for her boyfriend. She actually did a pretty darn good job on it.

Dave wanted everyone's attention so he posed on this stump until we could all catch up to him. I didn't realize how skinny his legs are. They are just like the Lewis Legs!

Bob took this picture so that I could be in it. I was trying to hide behind Emilee so that the camera wouldn't get my fat body. I can't believe that I have put on so much weight in the last few years.

Our little hiking group. We took a lot of pictures. From left to right; Ashlin, Julie, Dylan, Jennifer, Dave, Emilee, and Bob.

We went on our first hike Saturday. It was so beautiful!! I think Bob got the front view picture while I got the rear view.

Raiden 5/19/2010, at 7 months. He looks like the happiest baby. He just gets cuter all the time. Dant took this photo with his cell phone and sent it to me around Mother's Day.

We had to move AGAIN. We were in this place the longest though. Almost 3 years. This was the 4th time since we got married in 2003. This is what happens when you need to rent....
Our new address is 2241 Indigo Hills Drive, sounds nice huh? It's a condo and I do really like it so far. Haven't really unpacked yet though. Get to start on that tonight.

A wonderful birthday cake from a vendor @ Jade. It's from a Chinese bakery and sooooooooo goooooood!!!
