Happy Birthday McKinnley!

On Sunday we celebrated McKinnley's birthday. She turned 7 years old on May 11th. She got a bunch of cute clothes, some hair ties with bling and a book from Grandma and Grandpa. I got her a pink bracelet. Pamela is taking her to get a manicure and pedicure on Saturday.

This is what I did for McKinnley for her birthday. There is a bracelet in the bag.










How do you like Colby's toe socks?

We had to try out the new hair ties.

FYI- the girls are wearing Colby's t-shirts because they got sunburned the day before swimming.

Mother's Day

Here are some pictures from today at Mom and Dad's house for family dinner and to celebrate Mother's Day.


I made this for mom out of wood block letters and then mod podged paper onto the blocks:

A week or so ago I mod podged my initials so I knew that I wanted to do something like that for my mother's day present to my mom. This is how my initials turned out:

Isn't the owl cute?!

Pamela's cactus in the backyard is blooming

Self portrait, since I am usually the one taking pictures at family stuff, this is the only way I get a picture of me in the mix.

Here is Pamela wearing a cute new shirt and crocheting a shawl

Pumbaa and his rabbit

Here's Dad. His forehead is all healed up and you can't even see the scar from where they removed the cancer.

Matt, he just got a haircut, can you tell???

This is normal to see Matt texting all the time.

This past week I have been working on making Mother's Day cards. I have actually done okay with selling a few at work. On Tuesday Matt brought the kids over so they could pick out a card for their mom. Halli and McKinnely are always so curious about how to make a card, so I showed them how I made one and they helped pick out the paper I used.

Over the weekend, Bridgette, Sarah and I got together for dinner and then went to watch a movie in John and Bryant's house. We saw Ironman (daaa nah, da nah nah, da do da do da do da do, da nah nah, Ironmad themesong) . It was so nice outside, however every now and then I felt like I was being attack by bugs. On Saturday, Tara and I went to see the new movie, X-Men Orgins. It has been like forever since I went to the movies, so it was fun and the movie was good.
