Birthday Party!!!

Saturday in Idaho we had a Birthday party for Taylyn. We had all are family there and she loves her cousins so why the heck not. We played all day then opened presents and had cake and ice cream. Thanks to mom mortensen for letting us all crash her house and Thanks to my mom for all the help with the cake and just life in general. Taylyn had a lot of fun and this was the first year when she really understood that these were her presents and she new just how to open them and not let go. We had a little craft project with my girls and there cousins the boys as we call them. We painted paper pumpkins and then painted Halloween masks. This was the first time I let the girls paint; they had a lot of fun. After the party we had all the kids make little bugs. You take a bite sized mound bar put broken pretzels in the sides for legs and then I let them use the left over frosting for the cake to decorate there bugs, it was a lot of fun, a big mess, but lots of fun. A special thanks to Katie for all her help. I love coming home and getting to know you better.

How fun! We just celebrated my youngest's on Oct. 20th and she made a haul! But her most favorite was the Barbie and the Diamond Castle that sings when you push the button on her hand--let me tell you that it is NOT my favorite!!
