Uh oh....

I pride myself on our "careful-ness" (is that a word?) We don't leave coin money around, all small objects are put away, no knives or scissors lying about. I am especially careful that markers and crayons get put away. However, I forgot about the three crayons that are kept in our diaper bag to use at church. They are kept in a zip lock bag, and Jill hasn't figured out how to open those, so I thought. So I was switching loads of laundry, "shouting out" some of her clothes, when this happened. Jill was quietly playing on the floor while I was working. I finished and we went into the kitchen for lunch, it wasn't until about 2 hours later that I found this. Uh oh, beware of pride.

Happy Birthday!!!!


At the temple for Keith's endowments

Birthday Girl at Build a bear, we had never been there, it was insane!! I couldn't believe the stuff in that store. It was so fun!

Patiently waiting for cake!

This pic is just after she attempted to blow her candles out the first time. She finally blew them out all by herself! Practice pays off!

Love this shot! My two favorites.

Last couple of days

We have had a busy week, but oh so much fun!

Went to the Cheese factory, which I have never been to, and its been here for years! Jill loved the animals. For 25 cents you can feed them, Jill loved feeding the goats

JIll found my shower cap, at least she looks cute in it.

We had a Valk retreat this last week. We had such a great time, lots of laughs and good food! Thank you D and C !!!!!!!!!!

Jill and her favorite Auntie Christy!

Loved this shot of a bunch of us on the party boat. Especially love Grandpa trying on Judy's hat!

Jill didn't feel very good when we got home from Strawberry, a temp, droopy, and very tired. When she is sick, she just wants her daddy!

Several of us went to the Barnes and Nobles Party for the release of Breaking Dawn. It was great fun, hanging out and chatting. Thanks girls, you all rock!!!!!!
