My Three Sisters


I will have to say that I am probably the most blessed when it comes to my sweet sisters! I am the oldest of 5 kids and 4 of us are GIRLS! You can imagine what our home was like when we were all young. Now we are all grown up and are having families of our own, and honestly, it just doesn't get better than this. I have three beautiful, talented, spiritual, loving, giving sisters who I can turn to for ANYTHING! A few weekends ago, we all got together for the first time without any of our parents....we felt so grown up! Between the four of us we have 8 1/2 darling children who loved our get together just as much or more than we did! We were able to spend nearly a week together, just enjoying one another! We did a lot of fun things with the kids like: swimming, Boondocks, Jumpin' Jacks, etc. We ate good food, laughed, talked, told stories, traded clothes, gave advice, and so much more. At the end of our week, we drove to Rexburg, ID to attend our step-sister's graduation from BYU-I. There we got to spend time with grandparents, great-grandparents, cousins and more! We had a wonderful time together, and I do say that I don't think it gets better than this! Sisters, I love you! I am so grateful for the bond that we all share. Thank you for your love and support! I LOVE YOU!!!

SIX!!

Our sweet Scrubba the Wubba turned six at the end of March! What a handsome little guy he is! He had french toast with strawberries and whipped cream for breakfast and was so excited to bring some treats for his class at school.
Scrubba loves Pokemon. Honestly, I have know idea why kids like them, I guess I am just old! He wanted a Pokemon cake and so....here is Bulbasaur the Pokemon. He took me quite a while to finish, but it was nothing compared to the Buzz Lightyear cake I did for his 3rd birthday!

We had a fun party with 20 kids and some parents as well. We ate pizza, opened gifts (more toys and things that I have no clue about), had cake and ice cream, and then we went to a place called Jumping Jacks that is a huge room filled with blow up slides/toys etc. FUN, FUN, FUN!! All of the kids played hard, and so did some of the adults. Let's just say that we all slept well that night! Happy Birthday Bud!! We love you sooooo much!
