My Girl

She LOVES clothes.  She has definite favorites.  My kids never hit the stage where they want to pick out their own clothes, not sure why - they seem so opinionated in other ways!  Every now and then - usually Saturdays, I make them choose their own outfit.  This was hers  :)  All of her favorite items.  I like that she has a little bit of mommy style in her because every outfit she chooses has a white shirt underneath - just like me...  She's into skirts lately.  And this is her favorite cupcake shirt. 

A Very Angry Bird-Day

Bug Man's birthday and 2 other guys from the ward all had their 30th b-day within a month of each other so the wives got an idea.  We threw a party.  An Angry Birds party.  It was a blast.  I'm not taking credit for any of those cute cake items, Maggie decorated the cake and Cheryl did the cake pops - I made deviled eggs, we really like deviled eggs and now you know what happens when you get the eggs back - the crazy egg lady steals them and cooks them.  :)

 They had a sling shot to shoot the pinata - that was one tough pinata.  We also had a pinata stick (gotta love Winco - who knew you could buy happiness for $1.88???)  We let the kids all take a whack at it and then the grown ups take a whack at it, and then we pulled the strings and then whacked it some more - it was tough!

The OTHER Cinderella Story.

Once upon a time there was a husband, a wife, a
beautiful baby and a lovely little girl in love with princesses.  One night Cinderella was left on the ground after the little girl was sent to bed, the baby, on seeing Cinderella left there, sneakily scooted over to Cinderella and grabbed the doll and the wife allowed it.  Upon seeing this the husband, disapproving, grabbed the doll from the baby and began to lecture on choking hazards and to demonstrate how easily Cinderella's head would pop off and choke the baby.  However the demonstration proved more difficult than the husband had anticipated and the precious Cinderella was broken.  Many attempts by the husband to reattach the head were unfruitful and Cinderella was left, decapitated on the desk, hopefully to be fixed at a later date with the aid of very strong glue or the purchase of a new Cinderella.  All was quiet as the people slept.  The next morning however there was great sadness as the little girl found her Cinderella headless on the desk.  Quickly the little girl solved this dilemma, with a piece of well placed tape.  And they all lived happily ever after.

Dillon's Cowboy Photo Shoot

 Dillon set Andy up at a cowboy - riding his horse, err, jumper :)  I just had to take pictures :)  (Yes, he's wearing a cape.)

I Grape You... I Grape You Too.

  This is what happens when Brandon leaves us alone too long :)  We get a little 'grapey'  :)
