A Fun Fall Birthday Party!

Today the girls and I went to some friend's of ours, Lilly and Wyatt's, Birthday Party! It was such a fun party. The girls made spider's, colored pictures, made bracelets and necklaces, and even got some fun Halloween tattoo's and loads of goodies.

Here are some fun pics for today's party! Thanks Lilly, Wyatt and Kristin for the invite! We loved it!

A couple of goof balls!

Driving to Colorado

As most of you know on our way out of Las Vegas to move to Colorado we got in a car accident. We had to leave two days later than planned and in a rental car (which we had for three weeks - made me really love my van. Although it was really nice, it was small and the girls couldn't keep their hands to themselves). Here are a few pics of my 13 hour drive with just the girls and I. It was crazy (when I turned the rental I have never seen a messier car- opps!), but we made it.

Pioneer Day Parade

Around the 24th of June we went to a great parade to commemorate the pioneer day celebration. It was put on by three stakes in Vegas. The girls had a fun time getting candy (every float was throwing some) and the adults tried to avoid getting soaked by one of the hundreds of water guns that were on the floats.





**I just realized Brooklyn is not in any of these posts. During the Summer we often did our activities during Brooke's nap. Since we lived with Jay's parents there was always a someone at home to watch her.

Visit to Grandma and Grandpa Tiedge's House

Before we moved to Colorado we spent a few days with my Grandma and Grandpa Tiedge in St. George. We went to a fun splash park and just relaxed around their house and ate my grandma's delicious cooking. Kaelyn is modeling some old sunglasses we found in their garage that she insisted on bringing to the splash park and still wears occasionally. On the way to the car the girls saw the statue of the horse head and wanted to get a picture by it (I think the statue looks a little freaky with just a head of a horse and the look in its eyes is so sad).

We had a wonderful time with G&G Tiedge! We love and miss you!

We couldn't find Brooklyn anywhere and finally found her here in the cat carrier.

Madelyn's 5 year doctor checkup

Back in June, Madelyn had her 5 year old check up at the doctors. It hit me so hard that she was five and she just looked so cute that day I had to record it.

Cute Kaelyn! She was having a good time too!

It's time to catch up!

I am finally feeling like things are starting to settle down. I have gotten back into my daily routine and now I am finding time to do extra things.

One of those extra things is updating my blog from all the fun things we did this Summer and pics of the girls so here are several posts about our Summer.

Cute things the kids are doing

Maddy was singing this song this morning, "I love mommy better than anything, I love mommy better than anything, I love mommy better than anything and I love Jesus too because He is special."

I walked into the office today and found Kaelyn with a wet shirt. I asked her why her shirt was wet and she said she wants to see her tongue with Gatorade on it. Love it!
