Birthday

I think everyone was a little worried about my birthday and my mental state considering I'm half way through my life, oh and that I'm single. I've never had so many birthday wishes, it was very thoughtful of everyone. Lindsay really wanted to make sure I had a great birthday celebration though so what better than pizza benders, dressing up as a witch and heading out to Gardner Village with the family. It really was a great day and I appreciate all the support from everyone, I love and adore you all!!!

Halloween party with Grandma

Grandma certainly loves her grandkids above all, so she loves to do special things like hosting a Halloween party!!! There was great food, pumpkin carving, a new Halloween book for our collection and great costumes by all. What a fun family tradition!

Yellow submarine

My Dad and Char came in to town and Kete and Lindsay are always lovely hosts and are very activity oriented so we had so much fun playing Beatles Rockband! Bella and Hannah were loving it so much that cousins and playtime couldn't pull them away. Yellow submarine is now a daily song with the girls and I!!! Oh how I love these moments!

witchy poo

October has arrived which means my favorite time of year!!! There are so many fun activities we will be doing, but one of the best ones is going to Gardner Village and celebrating with the witches festival. It's October 5th and we have already been twice to enjoy the ambiance, hot chocolate and just have fun together. I love my 2 little witches (which sometimes the name fits more than others) and I'm so lucky to get to play with them!

UEA

Miss Isabella has had a crush on Andrew for over a year now. I was hoping that with Andrew going to a different school this year, it would subside, but no such luck. So to appease her mildly, we had a playdate with Andrew, Gretchen and London during the UEA break. We had quite a day with a picnic, park play, a movie and even Rice Krispy treat devouring. While I hope this crush subsides soon, I hope my little Isabella enjoys this time, because this is her last boyfriend until she's 25.

Me and the ladies

The girls and I went to a fun Primary activity and got some great ideas on family activities. One of them was going to the Temple, and Hannah thought that idea was absolutely fabulous, so we invited Grandma and headed down last Sunday to the Temple grounds. The drive there was my favorite part though. We were in the convertible, hair blowing in the wind blasting out "Popular" from Wicked and we were in complete bliss!!! I love these moments with my ladies that make everything worthwhile!
