celebrating another birthday with another piercing :O)

before
after

Thursday we celebrated the day that our lovely Reagan -Becca joined our family exactly 8 years ago. I guess technically the celebration began on Wednesday night at Tin Star (because Jensen and Tanner were going to be away at the trek on Reagan's actual birthday.) There was a balloon artist there and he was AMAZING! He made this for the birthday girl. And see below for the cool batman he made for Brady.
On Thursday we celebrated with lunch at BJs. YUM-MY! What's a birthday without a celebratory PAZOOKIE. Here is the birthday girl proving how great they really are.


Reagan just HAD to go to the mall and unload some birthday cash. She and McKinley splurged on these Zhu zhu pets.


Then it was off to the local walmart to get her ears pierced. Can you tell she was a little nervous about it?


Then we stopped off at Baskin Robbins for some ice cream.


We actually couldn't fit all the festivities in to one day so we went to see "Dieay of a Wimpy Kid" with Alexa (one of Reagan' s BFFS) and Jane (one of Kiki's BFFs) on Friday.
All in all I think our birthday girl had a grand three day celebration. Of course, the real celebration comes in april when she gets baptized. She can hardly wait!

what are the odds?

What are the odds of a wasp flying into the open window of a moving car and stinging an innocent person on the eyelid? I would like to know because that is just what happened to our poor Kiki last Monday night. Here is the proof. If I didn't see it for myself I would not have believed it.

Dad Day & Joe's Crab Shack 2011

Image
We have a family tradition of going to Joe's Crab shack every year the day before Father's Day. It is Brent's favorite and kinda pricey so we reserve it for special occasions. The kids have all come to love CRAB so it is a much awaited treat. Here are some pics. I couldn't let the day go by without expressing my love and appreciation for the guy who fathers the children in our home and does so magnificently. He is such a shining example of what a dad should be. He is so patient, kind, helpful, and I happen to think he is a hottie to boot!

Builders vs. Wreckers

Image
A little poem I heard from John Bytheway on a BYU fireside (on BYUTV) today. Makes me stop and go "hmmmmm....." I might have another resolution to add to my growing list..... Builders vs. Wreckers I passed one day through a lonely town And saw men tearing a building down. With a ho-heave-ho and a husky yell They swung at a beam and a side wall fell. I asked the foreman, “Are these men skilled- The kind you’d hire if you had to build?” “Oh no!” he chuckled, “No indeed- The common laborer is all I need.” “Why I can destroy in a day or two What builders have taken weeks to do.” I thought to myself as I went on my way “Which of these rolls have I tried to play? Am I the builder who works with care Strengthening lives by rule and square, Shaping my peers to a well made plan- Helping them do the best they can- Or am I a wrecker who walks around Content with the labor of tearing down?” -Author Unknown
