So Tory and I bought Gordon a Bed from Ikea, we weren't planning on putting him in it quite so soon, but when I got back from Brooke's house, Tory had painted Gordie's room and we set up the bed that night. I did not think he would stay in a bed at only 17 months old! It took 3 hard nights and now he loves it, and Tory and I love reading books with him at night and being able to crawl right in bed with him!
Gordie and I went and stayed with my best friend Brooke and her little girl Bridget! It was so much fun! The two kids hit it off great, we couldn't have asked for a better reaction from the two since Brooke and I have been planning their future long before they came around! It was so fun to just hang out with Brooke and talk while the kids played! I really wish they lived closer! 
It was so cute, the whole time they were in the bath together Bridget just kept washing Gordon's hair! She is so motherly! Gordon only cared about the new bath toys.
On December 31, 2009 it was Tory's and my 4 year anniversary! On the night of our actual anniversary (New Years eve), we went out for Chinese food, then went to the Olympic oval to ice skate, then the next day we went down town to stay at the Little America. We walked around down town, Talked, saw movies, SLEPT IN!! It was so fun to just be together alone! I can honestly say I am more in love with Tory now then the day I married him! I can't wait for the many years with him that are to come! Thank you Tory! I love you so much! Thank you to my mom for taking Gordon that night!
This Christmas will probably go down in history as my most memorable Christmas, we did so many fun Christmas activities, seeing the lights at temple square, live nativity, a lot of Christmas movies! This one was so special for a couple reasons...Cute little Gordon was more aware this year of the festivities, we got to talk to Carl who is on his mission, first Christmas away, and because my cute, wonderful mom spent most of 2009 working on quilts for every single one of her children, in laws, and grandchildren, that's 13 quilts! And with all of our scraps she made my dad a huge quilt! We all knew we were getting these quilts, she let us pick out our own material, all of us girls thought that if we all were getting quilts that morning, my mom needed one of her own! So we all worked on a quilt for her! It turned out better than I could have imagined! It was so neat to give that to her, she cried of course as did the rest of us! I will always cherish my quilt and always remember the Christmas of the quilts! Thank you so much mom!
Cute winter hat for the cold months!

My favorite Christmas present!We had such a fun eventful Thanksgiving holiday! We drove there through the night, I thought "perfect, Gordo will sleep the whole way!" Well, no it didn't exactly go down that way! He slept til about 11pm and was awake and crying til about 1:30am! We stopped a couple times so Tory could sleep but for the most part we just drove the entire night!
Our first stop was Tory's Good friend Mike and Josephina and their adorable daughter Isolina. We showed up at their doorstep at about 8am looking tired and haggard! We stayed at there house Saturday to Sunday, We also got to hang out with Tory's other good friend Jeff and his cute wife Page! It was so fun to see them! They were trying to per sway us to move to AZ and I must say the offer was very tempting in the 78 degree weather!
Our next stop was to my grandpa Ron's house. He and his wife own a cute bed and breakfast in Hereford Arizona. It is so beautiful there! You would never guess you were in Arizona. We arrived at his house Sunday night and we were welcomed by the best spaghetti I have had! I guess my grandpa has been perfecting it for years! So good! He was so cute with Gordon, he gave him this case of golf balls with Disney characters on them! Gordon loved them of course. He said he's been holding on to them for 10 years waiting for the perfect person to give them to, and when little Gordo showed him his mad golf skills, he was impressed and Gordon got the balls!! The next day he took Troy Golfing with him! It was a short stay but very fun!
Our next and final stop in Arizona was to my Grandma Gretchen's house where we would stay from Monday to Friday. It was so fun to her and it has been years now for me and for Tory and Gordon it was the first time they met! We also got to spend Thanksgiving with the cute Krieg Family! We had so much fun, my grandma was great with wild Gordie! She luckily still had all the toys from when Adair was little and Gord loved them! It was a very memorable thanks giving!
On our trip home we stopped in Vegas to stay with my family, they were there for Will's soccer tournament! It was so fun to see Katie it had been forever!

So I'm pretty sure Gordon was sick with the Swine flu he was around a bunch of kids who had it and then he got really sick! Well...Gordon can't just stay home even when he is sick, he gets restless, so we decided to take little Gordo to a movie! We brought his car seat in to the theater and strapped him in, he loves popcorn which helped! He was awesome for about an hour which I was quite impressed with, after that he needed to run around! We took him to Where the Wild Things Are, I thought it was a kid movie...not so much! It was still cute watching him stare at the screen and mindlessly eating popcorn, he looked like a big kid! We went and saw "where the wild things are" which is not really a kid movie, I was expecting it to be more for him then it endded up being!
Right before the movie started.
Popcorn saved us through most of the movie
...and we're done!
Tory, Gordie and I went to the Aquarium in Sandy it was fun to see one time... 
Petting the sting ray! Gordon was too crazy about getting that close!
He did love all the "ishes"
He loves his mommy!
We all went to the zoo the other day Adair, her kids, and Lizzy with the kids she watches. The weather was awesome! I love that we haven't jumped from summer right into below zero! It was the perfect day at the zoo.

Gordon's favorite animals at the zoo were the ducks, how exotic!
This Halloween was so fun, Gordon thought it was great getting candy from his grandparents and I held back this day and let him got nuts while first reading the ingredients to make sure there were no nut(We recently found out Gordon has a peanut allergy)!
I had Tory all day, we started off by going to gardener village, I love that place at Halloween! Then we went trick or treating at Grandma Holly's house...Then we met Emmy and the kids at her house for pics before we went to the other grandparents houses...

Out of the whole tray of candy he chooses the butterfinger the only thing with peanuts in it! Dad ate that one and Grandpa Carl let him pick another one he chose a kit kat that mom ate!

My little chicken after a very eventful Halloween! I love this holiday
I must first say this has not been forced on Gordon, he comes by it naturally I guess! Since he could crawl he has been obsessed with balls, he is even more partial to golf balls, I think it's because they make the best noise on Nana Jan's kitchen tile and going down the hard wood stairs! He watches golf with his dad on TV sometimes and has gone out to the range with him, but no official golf lessons!
Anything that even resembles a golf club he will pick up and whack a golf ball with! He has a plastic set of clubs and a wooden putter that he is rarely without in one hand, and a golf ball in his other! We took him to the practice putting green the other day and he screamed when I picked him up to take him home! He would do it all day if he could! It is the funniest thing ever! Tory is quite proud of his little golfer!

So Tory finally has found some direction in his life and I am thrilled! He has been struggling with what to do for a career and with his future. He has taken golf very serious the past year and loves it, so why not go pro?
He has talked to my dad about it and he sees huge potential in Tory, so that got him more excited about it! The very first step in become a PGA class A pro you must first pass the players ability test (PAT), before you can even start the 3 year program...on October 22nd he took his PAT. You can shoot 7 over on 36 holes, I knew he could do it on any given day, but I must admit I was unsure if he could hold up to the pressure! Well he did it!!! He shot 4 over on 36 holes, 2 over on the first 18and 2 over on the second 18!!
I am so proud of him and so happy that he has found something he loves! Now, being the daughter of a pro golfer, I know that it is hard to make money in the golf industry, but I would much rather be poor my whole life and have Tory do what he loves then to be rich with a miserable husband! I love Tory so much and am so proud of him for doing this!
This post is a little out of order. The end of August we went down to St. George to see Katie at SUU and also because Katie, Tory, Mikey and my dad were playing in the Mcgladrey tournament! It's a scramble and they did really well taking 5th place!
