There have been some birthdays!
My grandma turned 85 this year! She wanted to go to the temple for her birthday. So my mom and dad were able to go up and take her to the temple. She was very excited (despite horrible traffic delays). She also had a little party with family and a birthday cake. She was completely tickled! :)
I like this picture of my mom and grandma! :)
Laney turned 1!
Karlee turned 9!
And since Karlee and Kavan and Laney all have birthdays within about 2 1/2 weeks of each other, we invited family up for a multi - celebration! My mom and I got busy in the kitchen making food...
and spider birthday cakes - cause it was almost halloween!
Friends and family came...
and we celebrated and had so much fun!!! (We were trying to get a picture of the b-day kids, but Kavan was so worried about Laney getting the cake!)
Good enough! :)
How exciting is it to have a whole chocolate bar to yourself!?!
Look at these cool gift trees from Kirk, Jana, Collin and Samantha. (They even had money tied to them!)
Then Kavan turned 7. My dad took us to see Despicable Me (love this movie - I want to own it!) earlier in the day, then we went ice skating.
And Kavan really wanted a snake cake! So I tried, and the way it looked kind of reminded me of the saying from Despicable Me - "Oh poop!" Anyway...
Candles were lit,
and wishes were made, and all was good!!!
And as far as wishes go. Karlee had wished that cousin Sarah's baby would be born on her birthday and she was. Her name is Emelyne Rae - and isn't she beautiful!?!
