Birthdays!

On Friday we had a friends birthday party for Iya. It was Toy Story themed and was such a blast for the kids. I make a Jessie hat cake and we had some streamers up and toy story table cloth and plates. I let them throw water balloons and use squirt guns and try to get characters that I cut out from the movie. It was so rainy all week but was super nice on Friday so it was way nice. Iya is such a cutie-when you ask her how old she is she says "free" (she is only two!)

Here are all the kids coloring Woody, Buzz, Jessie, and Bullseye.



Makayla got "wiggle sprinkles" (as Nini says) and some toy story goggles from her party. After everyone left we had a water party of our own. :)


On my birthday we went to Red Robin together. It was a family tradition in Idaho to go with my parents and siblings and of course Granny, Grampa and Judy.....we loved it so of course we will continue it here (just by ourselves though)!


My family came on Sunday after church for Iyas birthday.

New Table

I have been wanting a new table for a long time. Our old one is falling apart and is too small when we have family or the missionaries over. I have been looking online and at Sam's Club. Last Friday Alex and I went to Sam's to look for a gift for Mom for Mother's Day and they had the table that I was looking at online. It also has two more chairs and a butterfly leaf that stores underneath. I just love it! Happy Mother's Day and Birthday to ME!

Nini

I had the camera out the other day and Nini wanted me to take a picture of her touching the wall. She was posing for the camera and smiling! She normally could care less when I get them camera and I can never get her to look and smile at the SAME time. I just cannot believe how big she is getting. She loves to play "I'm the mommy and Iya's the daddy" and she also loves being outside running around and playing with the puppies. She is so funny because one minute she will be outside feeding the dogs and playing in the dirt, and the next minute she will be putting on a princess dress and lipstick- she is definitely a well rounded little girl. She is so beautiful and I love her.
