Princess Tea Party

October 17, 2015

Nikelle invited Maden and Annie and I to go to a Princess Tea Party with her and Molly in Rupert.  

Maden was the star of the show in his Prince Charming costume. Annie looked absolutely darling in her Princess dress. (Funny thing, her sparkly shoes that fit her on Sunday did not fit on Saturday!) Molly was the cutest little Cinderella in the dress her Grandma Bair made for her.

On the way up the stairs to the party, they got to meet all the princesses and get their autographs.  Pocahontis (Nikelle's good friend) loved little Molly Cinderella. They were all such good sports about getting their pictures taken over and over.

We had a fun little "tea party" with some good food.  All the princesses came in and sang a song to the audience.  The princess Anna from Frozen even sang to Maden.  It was a great day!

My Birthday, Babysitting and More Swinging

October 15, 2015

On the day before my birthday, we got a new car and fireplace insert! We decided to trade in the Escape for and Explorer. The new fireplace looks so sleek and clean, I love it!

On Sunday, Oct. 18th, the kids had a dinner for me at Jared and Nikelle's house. It was very good food! They all gave me these amazing canvases! I absolutely love them! But, not as much as I love those 5 little ones!

Babysitting

I'm babysitting Ryder 2 1/2 days each week, which is so fun. I think he likes coming to our house. One week I had the opportunity to watch all three babies at separate times. I can't think of a better way to spend my time!

Here are just a few pictures from our babysitting adventures. Aren't they just the cutest little humans ever?

Swinging

The tree swing continues to be a huge hit.  Annie especially loves it. Courtney and Nikelle got in on the action too.

Ryder and Molly have tried out the swing in the back and have liked it really well.  We haven't given Clark a chance yet, but he sure enjoyed watching Maden and Annie on the tree swing.  Nikelle got another chance to have a swinging good time too.

Corn Maze and Conference

Sept. 23, 2015

I went to the Wild Adventure Corn Maze with Brian's family.  We just did the small maze, and this is the only picture I have of it! They had a great time on the little barrel train.

The jousting bouncy thing was really fun too.  It was perfect weather!

General Conference
October 3 & 4, 2015

Jared, Nikelle and Molly came and spent the night on Saturday, so that gave us some really fun Molly time! She is getting so big!

Brian and Celia came down in the afternoon on Sunday. We watched a movie after conference was over. It was a fun weekend, conference was so good!

Blake's Birthday

Sept. 21, 2015

Blake turned the big 60 this year! We had a birthday dinner for him on Sunday, Sept 20th because it's easier to get everyone together on Sunday.  It's so fun to have these grandkids around for these occasions!
