Last week's games

this is Dan playing a "minute to win it" game. The object of the game is to get the cookie from your forehead into your mouth using only facial muscles. lol enjoy

Our Great weekend

This weekend was Rilyn's birthday party. Dan and Jazmine also flew up to spend the weekend here.



Rilyn's birthday cake. This is what she ordered me to make: a blue cake with black frosting. A mermaid on top and "critters" all over. Lol

Of course we also had to have the "who is taller" debate between Dan and Ryan. The result was indecisive (hey, I don't want to get in trouble here !)

It was a great party, so great in fact that Rilyn fell asleep in her own party tent. All worn out ha ha

Our trip to L.A.

So we just got back from visiting L.A. It was so much fun. My brother lives there, so we stayed with him and had a blast. First, we helped Dan's wife Jazmine throw a birthday party for their one-year-old daughter Jade. The theme was ice cream. As a present, I made her these cute wooden alphabet blocks. She loves to play with them.






We also were able to go to six flags magic mountain. Josh has been there before, but I never have so it was exciting. We got to go on all of the best rides. It was a lot of fun. The only downside is that I got my purse stolen. I figured that might happen so I just brought a nasty old one I was going to throw away anyway and didn't put anything valuable in it. Whoever stole my purse got granola bars and spare tampons. What a find! lol



We also went to the beach. That was fun until we all got major sunburns ha ha ha. It is so nice to be able to take a few days off and have some fun. :)

renovation week!!

This week is going to be a blast!! We are making some major improvements on our little basement apartment.
First, we took down the nasty wallpaper boarder. We and Grandma loved the result!

Next repainted josh's speakers a sleek black!
We are getting ready to hang some awesome pictures of us on the wall with frames from Ikea. I'm so excited to finish everything. Grandma even gave us the OK to paint the walls a muted cream :) I love summertime!

Josh's Biking video!

We made a sweet biking video of all Josh's tricks. enjoy...

Josh's B-day

This week was my wonderful husband's birthday! He is 23. We had kneaders for breakfast and celebrated with a raspberry/strawberry cake Wednesday evening. He got so many birthday wishes and gifts from everyone, so thanks!

Easter 2010!

This Easter was Great! We celebrated with my sister Em, and my sister Nen (including her husband and two kids too).It was a blast. On Saturday, while the boys were at priesthood meeting of General Conference, we did some girly crafts. These flowers are stiffened fabric, punched into shapes and pulled together through wire.















Here are some pictures of the Egg hunt we did early Sunday morning. It was so fun. We made breakfast (egg gravy over biscuits...mmmm so good!) and watched LDS General Conference too. I love being with my family :)
