Brody's LMNO Preschool Graduation!

Brody!  We are so happy for you and so proud of you!  You are so smart and handsome!  In class they called you "the big brother" because you always helped everyone else out.  Miss Megan and Miss Shannon we are so very grateful for your teaching and loving abilities!  You put on a great program, "We did it, we did it, hey don't you get it, we grew a little every day!  We did it, we did it..."  We will surely miss you!

Rylee's 2nd Grade Class Party

Since I am the room mom, I was in charge of the class party.  It was a blast!  We reserved the lower baseball field at Silva Valley and had many games for the kids plus lots of food!  I am very happy with how it turned out and I'm glad this big stresser is behind me!  Rylee said it was the best and I was so happy to have all my kids there having fun!   

Gualala 2013

Here we are again venturing off to Gualala in the big RV!  It was a surprise to the kids and they were thrilled to be traveling in it again this year.  I too have to admit that I like this way of travel vs. a car.  Once we got there we got to spend one night in the RV and then the rest of the trip we were in the tent. Our tent is an awesome tent but just doesn't compare to the RV.  The day we left it rained, perfect timing.  We still had a great time this year and look forward to the next.  I can't believe how our family has grown since the last time we took the RV which was 2 weeks after giving birth to Taylee.  Life is going by way to fast.

Harvest day!

Look at all those strawberries!  We got about 2lbs. this year at one time.  This is the first of our harvest for the season.  These sure were tasty and the kids loved picking and eating these!  Thanks Jon for all your hard work!

Leah and Rebekah Bradley's 7th Birthday Party

Today is Leah and Rebekah's birthday party and the theme is Barbie fashionista! After the girls arrived they picked out their nail colors and jewels for their goody bags and Jessica, Renee and I did all the girls makeup and painted fingers and toes. Aimee hired a couple other girls from their ward to do all the girls hair.  The boys got tattooed while the girls got primped.  They watched a Barbie movie and then got their picture taken with Barbie.  Cute Rylee!  Then there was cake and ice cream and a BBQ afterwards.  It's always fun hanging out with the cousins!  Happy Birthday girls!
