Abi's 15th Birthday....

Wow time is flying!  Now I've got this beautiful 15 year old on my hands.  SO close to 16!  That is super crazy.   What happened to my little tiny 3 year old blondie??  At least she's still just as sweet!  She requested apple cake with caramel sauce for the family birthday party....at least she has good taste!



Her friends all really made her feel so special.  She has a lot of very thoughtful friends and they all made her feel like she was Queen for the Day.
And these two cute girls that she has been friends with since she was just little came and decorated her room while she was gone and then surprised her when she came back.   Such cute girls.

Russel and I decided it would be fun to bring in a bunch of pizzas to her lunch hour at school and just let all of her friends eat some yummy pizza from Big J's which is close to the school.  It was a good thought in theory and actually super fun.....what we didn't realize is that the school buys  Big J's pizza and sells it at lunch.  Oops not such a novelty......next year maybe we will have to bring donuts instead. Anyway, everyone was so sweet to her at lunch and it was fun to be there with her.
The Saturday after her birthday she had a volleyball tournament so we grabbed Emme and turned it into a girls weekend.  We did lots of shopping and eating and just did fun girl things.  I had a blast and I think the girls did too.  



Happy Birthday Sweet Girl!  Thanks for being such a great daughter and the best big sister anyone could ask for.  You are such a sweetheart and we are so proud of you.  Continue to be a good example and keep making good choices. Love you sweetie!

Meili's 6th Birthday...

Image
Meili's only request this year was to spend her birthday in Bear Lake.  That was not a problem.  Since it was also Raspberry Days that weekend, my family planned to come spend a fun-filled weekend with us.  Russel and I decided to come the night before and bring the three little kids with us.  We thought it would be super fun to go down to the KOA and rent a 6-person bike and ride around town.  It was a little harder than we thought since Russel and I were pretty much the man power.  We kept telling the kids to start pulling their weight and get pedaling!  JD kept complaining a little that his heart was hurting.  Well he's definitely a little athlete so I'm just thinking he's being lazy.  I kept telling him to get his groove on and get moving. Well after about an hour we returned the bike and went for snow cones.  The best snow cones in all of Bear Lake.  Yum!  Anyway, JD kept saying his heart was going so fast and I kept brush...

Girls, Girls, Girls....

So I have a lot of catching up to do in the blogging world. Several things have happened this month so I am devoting however long it may take today to get everything posted. This past weekend Abi invited 4 friends to go to the Nutcracker with her and Meili....of course Russel and I tagged along as well. We went to the matinee showing and beforehand they had a Sugar Plum Fairy Tea Party that was an absolute must. All the girls dressed up in fancy dresses and we had a great time. The tea party was decorated like a little girl's dream. Pink everywhere, sparkles covering everything, gooey pink sweet dessert, and many performers from the show mingling and taking pictures. Abi is truly blessed to have such good friends and this is only just a handful of them. The girls were so cute and had a great time. During intermission, we ran across the street to the famous Bluebird Restaurant to get them chocolates and candy (wonderful suggestion from Courtney). Oh...and it was also quite a...

Beautiful Drive up Logan Canyon...

Image
On Saturday, we decided to take a little drive up the canyon and look at the beautiful fall colors and my oh my were they gorgeous!! We've been up there twice this week and just can't get enough. This time we remembered the camera. :) The kids loved seeing the vibrant leaves. The drive is truly an hour of awesomeness. Plus it's always nice to know there's a very yummy fresh raspberry shake waiting for you....not to mention chocolate covered raspberries. Just a few of our favorite moments in Bear Lake. Here are a few of the "hundreds" of pics that Russel took. He has "trigger finger." I think I narrowed it down pretty good though.....although sometimes it's hard to tell if #95 looks better #3. :)
