Happy Birthday to ME! just a few pic of our little party...

Cake Boss made my cake... yum!

 always have to do something crazy on your birthday... i'm out of control, huh?

a little dance wii party

Our buddies from church came over to help celebrate... Aaron, Lacey, Marissa, (Kayle and Miles, too)

Whoa, mom, your cake is on FIRE!

This picture was taken last night... Scooter is so silly.

I was in charge of a center piece for the tables at the ward Christmas party on Saturday... I wrapped tissue boxes with paper and tagged them with the table number so the youth knew what tables to serve... i thought they turned out pretty cute!

AND we found an AWESOME deal on a pre-light Christmas Tree CYBER MONDAY at Joann Fabrics... Dudes, you can't beat $35.00! It's perfect! the kids had a GREAT time decorating it.

YAY, DECEMBER!

Happy Birthday Brinley and Will

 YAY! It's finally May and Will and Brinley had their birthdays!! In the picture above here we are SKYPING with the Utah Fam... Will and Brinley opened their gifts from Nans and Pops!! So fun! Will got the cutest little robot and Brinley got a sweet little mouse family to go in her red car!!

 Birthday Breakfast and fan mail ;)

 a quick trip to the store and Brinley got to push her own cart and found a walking cat balloon...

 he followed her around the whole store :)

 Will: 6 years old!!!

 On Wills' Birthday, we went to his school to watch his Kindergarten music program! Justin and I were walking up to  the music class and saw Caitln's EARTH DAY poster... right on the 'top billing' in front of the stinger bee hive... Way to GO CAITLIN!!

 Will's Program... his line, "I am learning to READ!" he insisted on wearing his suit to school that day... but NO TIE!

Will and his Best frinend, Alivia

 after school, we had a little Angry Bird party...

 Will got an umbrella!

 Will got a Light Saber from Grammy and Papa in PA! Brinley got a baby Stroller and a Hello Kitty umbrella (she says, "HELL KITTY" Hahahaha) Thanks Grammy and PAPA!
