Happy Holidays

the big 30

 

Wow, I can’t believe it really happened!! Kev turned 30! We had to make it a special weekend so I took him up to Park City to stay over night. We had so much fun. Thanks to my amazing parents who watched the kids. It was the first time we have ever left Reese over night. We ate delicious food, watched a movie, went hot tubing in the snow, and went to bed early! We had so much fun.

 

 

The boys really wanted to give him a present so they decided to take him bowling and he wasted us all! He doesn’t always win but since it was his Birthday I thought I’d better play nice.

 

 

On Sunday we went up to Kev’s parents and celebrated again. He decided he wanted peanut butter bars for his cake so that’s what he got.

 

FEAR FACTOR

All the boys Birthdays are at the beginning of November (except Ty’s but we celebrated his early) so we thought it would be fun to do a (nice) fear factor. We were too nice but I think they were grateful! They had fun but I think us girls had even more fun watching.

Halloween

 

I can’t believe it has already come and gone. We had such a blast this Halloween. I think Reese liked trick or treating more than anything else!

Party time!!

Come check out these amazing accessories! They are completely interchangeable! You will be amazed! They make fantastic gifts too! Reese is wearing one in the picture below. I love them so much!!

Reese’s 1st Birthday

 

It really happened, Reese turned one on 9/11/11. Crazy. I’m sad and happy and grateful. She has been so much fun lately. She loves her brothers more than anything. They entertain her most of the day. She is slowly starting to walk by herself and it’s hilarious to watch. She tries to copy anything we say or do. She already runs the show, and she’s kind of bossy. She can be pretty sassy sometimes.  We love her. This is her on her Birthday being a little grumpy.

We had a mini Birthday party at my parents house for her.

I tried making her a ruffle cake and could not get it right. It’s the thought that counts, right?

She wasn’t too interested in the cake so Kevin stuck her hand right into it.  She had a tiny taste and was done, she didn’t want to be messy. She’s such a girl already.

This was the second attempt on the ruffle cake……it looked a little better but not much. I’m going to keep practicing.

She liked the cake about the same as the first. I thought she’d go crazy the second time around.

She’d rather chew on a carrot than eat Birthday cake……not sure where she came from.
