Happy Birthday Mimi!

Happy Birthday Mimi! We love you and are so grateful for everything you do. You are such a great example of love and service to others and we are lucky to have you a part of our lives!


We were lucky enough to spend the day with Mimi. We went to lunch and to the aquarium to see the fish. We went to dinner tonight with the family (minus Chris) at the Olive Garden. Then we came back to our house for cake and ice cream (Caylin said we had to make a chocolate cake and put sprinkles on it for "Just the right touch"). Mimi had a lot of help blowing out the candles. Caylin insisted there be five candles: blue, pink and white. When she saw two blue, two pink and only one white, she then wanted another white one added. Lucky Mimi, you turned six today!



This little one thinks she is so big now that she is walking all over the place. She is still in "zombie" mode, where she walks around with her hands out in front of her (except when they're full of other things), and I think it is so cute!


Caylin didn't feel too well, so Colby "volunteered" to lay with her on our bed. I don't know who was out first!

We love you Mimi!

Silver Lake

This week for family night we went with Mimi, Papa and Chris up to Silver Lake. It was beautiful up there, but I underestimated how freezing cold it would be (it was in the 40's)! We made it down to the little dock, fed the ducks, and headed back to the heater in the car!

so I wasn't expecting to feed the ducks, so I scrounged around in the diaper bag and came up with some crackers and a package of Pop Tarts. One Pop Tart was fed to the ducks and as you can see, Caylin and Colby fought it out for the other!




St. George

We were finally able to go down to St. George last weekend with Colby's parents and Tyler, Melanie and Tyson. It was such a needed getaway and we had a lot of fun. Friday morning the girls took the kids to a park while the guys got in a round of golf before it got really hot.




We got to go swimming on Saturday. Bree is showing off her new ballerina swimsuit
and is so proud that she is walking!
