VT November message

I was glad that this month was my month for my Visiting Teaching group message. I wanted to make these aprons with a "Thanksgiving Menu" each menu has a 3 coarse meal which are quotes from the October conference. I'd like to take credit for them but in fact I googled VT november message and got this great idea. The theme is "Feasting on the words of Christ" and the apron reads "Add the words of the prophets to your Thanksgiving menu" If any one wants the template let me know.

Halloween

Kaylee was a homemade costume under $10 and just as cute as can be. She loved walking around in her tutu. We went to our ward trunk or treat then back to our place to treat what was left of the treaters. These are our ghost lanterns I made out of milk cartons.

3 Decades

We succeeded in giving Jeremy a surprise 30th birthday party with some of his friends from Idaho. He was thrilled to get this set of maracas as you can see.

My very 1st Birthday Party !!

Boy was this a fun day!! My Mom and Dad let me have my first martinelli which was awesome! My first shortcake which was awesome! All my presents and cards which was awesome! Lots of people came to my house to celebrate my very first birthday which was awesome!! But boy was I tired after everyone left. My Dad was too.

jeremy wasn't to thrilled to add her to our crew, but we're not able to get the right dog for our family just yet
where did she sleep the first night you ask.....
right here in jeremy's lap.
kaylee loves to play with her in the Bumboo and tries sitting with her but it never goes well, so she'll end up pushing her around the kitchen in it instead. I had to do my first snap my fingers and tell her no when I saw her trying to pick her up by her ears for the umpteenth time. it was hard for me

These are what we at the Park bungalow call Daddy Daughter Datesfor the record, he doesn't sleep here, although i truly believe he would if he knew no one would make fun of him....and we would
