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!

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

Surprise McKinley!

Image
A week ago, McKinley's best friend, Caty, texted me and asked if she could throw McKinley a surprise birthday party on her birthday.  The girls had been challenged by their Young Women leaders to do a 10 hour project for Individual Worth and she thought it would make a great project to plan a fun party for her! She invited 14 fun friends to join in on the surprise. I wish I would have taken the time to take a picture of the cute chocolate fountain and home made cupcakes she made.  She had blown up about 20 balloons and when McKinley walked in to the house they jumped out and showered her with shredded paper. Then they went swimming.  Yes, in November and NO, they had not heated the pool. kiki and  Lexie   with Emily  and Molly  and Mallory  and Kylie H.  and Kaly   the Lloyd twins and Abbey  Megan  Kaylie W.  Michaela  and Kylie P who had celebrated her birthday with a party the night before.
