OH MY!!!!!!

I actually blogged!!! Grab something to drink, and maybe something to snack on because you are going to be here a while! 7 New posts!!!!! I promise I will do better this month!! :)

Miley Cyrus Concert

This week we went to the Miley Cyrus concert. I really don't know what to say about it.....let's just say, "I wish she would have worn more clothes, I wish she would have sang more Hannah songs, and I wish she didn't puke during the third song!" After saying that, the girls had a wonderful time and loved every minute!! That is what matters! Will we do it again? NO!

To start off the night, we dressed up in matching headbands, and did makeovers!!! Then we had a fabulous dinner at Chili's!!!

Daddy and his girls!!! Bryce didn't want a headband....I wonder why?

Family Trip with the Newbold's

In September, we had a little family trip, to St. George, with Bryce's family. It was a lot of fun! We swam, saw Annie, and visited the temple! I love that my kids are creating great family memories! Cutest girls ever! :)

Amy's Graduation Party!

Amy, my best friend from high school graduated from the U this summer!! I am so proud of her and all she has accomplished. We had a graduation party for her at my house. When we graduated from high school, we went to Hawaii, so I thought why not bring Hawaii to her this time?! We had a Luau and lots of fun! And of course, I forgot to take pictures of all the cute decor! ugh! Anyway, it was super cute, and super fun! Congrats Amy!

Carnival / Fund Raiser!!!

A couple of weeks ago, we went to a carnival/ fund raiser, for my cousin and son!! (Jared and Dwayne) It was so much fun. I was amazed at their loving community. They really came together and pulled off an awesome day! Everything there was donated and all of the profits went directly to Jared and his family! The events included: Lunch, Auction, Car show, Motor cycle show, Face painting, fishing pond, bean bag toss, bounce house, Princess pictures, baked foods sale, etc..!!! Isn't that awesome? K, being so still, getting her face painted.
O's cute face painting!

FIRST Day of FIRST Grade!!!

K started first grade!!!!! she absolutely LOVES it!!!! I would be lying if I said that I wasn't sad. I did shed a few tears, but those were short lived!!!! I know, I know that sounds really mean, but K was READY to start school!! She is sooo smart and always wanting to be involved with everything!!! She enjoys reading and playing school. She just can't get enough of it! (I'm sure that will change in the future!) She is full of energy and life! She loves her friends and constantly wants to play with all of them! Therefore, school is the best place for her!!! hahaha
You might ask what O does while K is gone......? Well, she makes herself a bed right in the middle of the family room and watches what ever show SHE wants!!!! O actually really misses "Bug" and is constantly asking when she will come home. It's really kind of sad. I keep calling little friends to come play and keep her busy!
