Scouting

Collin has really been enjoying scouts the older he gets. At the end of June he went to scout camp and earned 9 merit badges and his 1st and 2nd class. I'm so proud of him. Now all he has to accomplish is his Star and then his Eagle. Way to go bud!!

Cookie Time!

I let Alexa enjoy her first chocolate chip cookie this week. She loved every little bit of it. Can you tell??




Jordon's 6 years old!

For Jordon's party this year I was a little ambitious. We decided to do a 'Spa Day'. We had a bunch of different stations. Manicure, Pedicure, Facials, Tatoos and Flip Flop decorating. I had a couple girls that babysit for us and their Mom help along with my MIL. We had 16 girls including Jordon & Sienna. It turned out really well! I attempted to make some cute cupcakes but it was a lost cause. Oh well, I tried! The party lasted 3 hours and from what the Mother's have told me it was a huge hit.
Happy Birthday Jordon! You are so special to me. You are my first daughter to enter my life. I was SO thrilled to have you. You have such an amazing spirit about you. You are a wonderful big sister to your siblings. You have so many special talents that I can't wait for you to grow into. I love you!

7 Year Anniversary

On Saturday Bruce and I celebrated our 7th anniversary. We went to Texas Roadhouse the night before so that G&G Baird could watch the kids. It was SO nice to get away from the kids and just enjoy each other. I love what an awesome husband and father Bruce is. I'm so happy to be sealed to him and I look forward to spending eternity with my love.

Things I love about my main squeeze:
1) How dedicated he is at being a Dad
2) How devoted he is at being my husband
3) His sense of humor
4) His big biceps to hold me with  ;)
5) His beautiful smile he always has when watching his girls do anything
