WAX LIPS…need I say more.

E turns 8!

These are the only pictures we got of E on his birthday.  We were just having too much fun to think about the camera.  Ethan loves to go to Olive Garden every year on his birthday.  He orders the same thing:  Zuppa Soup and a Root Beer.  Corey and I bring a bag of presents and E opens them while we wait for the food and after we are finished.  No, there are not a lot of presents…our food just comes really fast. :) 

Ethan is a truly amazing boy!  I am so proud of how hard he tries in school and how he wants so badly to succeed at everything he does.  I am grateful for his tender heart.  I love that he is sensitive to the needs of others.  He is a cuddly boy and loves to give hugs and cuddles.  He always tells me he loves me when he leaves the house…I hope that always continues. 

I can’t believe E is getting baptized!  I am so proud of him.  Heavenly Father has blessed me to be able to raise one of his choicest of spirits.  Love you buddy.

Speechless.

I would love to know what these little munchkins were thinking when they decided to dance around with swim diapers on their heads.  I think I know whose idea it was though.

 

I love watching these girls grow up and discover new things.  They don’t always play together harmoniously but they are ALWAYS together.  Hopefully that never changes…I mean the togetherness part.  I am hoping they learn to get along sooner than later.  :) 

A Good Time at the Duck Park

Kellee coordinated this little gathering at the Duck Park with all the moms and our little ones. We had so much fun. I never knew Ellie loved to swing so much. She was giggling with every push. Then of course we had to feed the ducks. I think Izzy ended up eating most of her bread. Good times!

We went to see Charley St. Cloud with Zac Efron…mainly because we all agree Zac Efron is beautiful.  After the movie some of us posed with the movie poster because Zac Efron is hot.  Then we went to Farr’s Ice Cream to cool off because Zac Efron is hot!  It was a great evening with lots and lots of laughter.  I had a fun time with these girls I love!  I wish we could (or would) do this more often.  Good times.  Family truly brings joy like no other…and so does Zac Efron!
