Dressing herself

I think the title and the pictures tell it all! Hilarious!

Reunions

I love being able to see "old" friends. This summer I was lucky enough to see two that I don't get to see very often. The first was on of my best friends, Ranisa, who moved to the mid-west a while ago. I did get to see her in Chicago when I was pregnant with Mackenzie (two years ago). But, our visits are few and far between. It was the first time all our kids had been together.

The next was one of my room mates from BYU, Tracey. She too has moved all over and I haven't seen her in about 4 or 5 years (when she happened to come to San Diego). This time she was driving through Vegas on her way to San Diego again. They only had time to stop and say hi and take a picture of all our kiddos together too. Fun times! (Getting all the kids in the picture was tricky.)

Love you girls!!

Dane's 7th Birthday

It was a Pool Party (because that means I don't have to come up with party games to keep them entertained).

We ended up with 12 boys (and Mackenzie) because all the friends Dane wanted to invite had at least one brother who came along. It was crazy! I think its funny to watch them enthralled with the gift opening.

Yaya gave me a icecream cone cake pan. The cake is the cone with a scoop of icecream on top. Hard to eat but so cute.

Sleeping Brice

Brice has never been a good sleeper. Bedtime, every night, is a nightmare for me. He won't stay in bed, he won't go to sleep and he stopped taking naps a long time ago. So recently his sleeping has made me laugh. He has fallen asleep in strange places and strange positions in his battle to defy me. He has even fallen asleep in the middle of the day. Not my typical Brice. So each time it happened I had to take a picture.

(This is not the first time I have found him asleep on the bathroom floor.)

Great American Bake Sale

We went over our goal by almsot $200. We ended up with so much food (donated and homemade) that we also got to split it between a couple churches to donate to their families in need.

This was one of the things I made..."cake on a stick" thanks to my grandmother (Tutu) who sent me the random cake pan. It was fun to make these...they were definitly unique among the cookies, cupcakes and loaves of bread.
