Happy Birthday Paigey!!

Image Always added a bit of sunshine to a room!
Image Isn't this a complete outfit??

Image A good big sister

As long as I'm on a blogging roll (after at least 2 months of not even looking at it), I thought I might as well give a shout out to my Paigey!! She is turning 5 in a couple of days (on the same day as like half the kids in my ward), and I just can't believe my baby Paige is getting so big. I can believe that Zachary is almost 7, and that Emma is almost 3, but it is hard for me that Paige is 5. That means she will be in school full-time next year, and that I will only be a part of her life during non-school hours. For Paige this will be great, because she is so social, and there will be lots of kids to tell on there...not just her little sister! I find that in the day-to-day of things, I find a lot more things my kids are doing wrong than things that they are doing right. I just want to let you all know some great things about Paige:
*she always has a smile for you
*she can find a friend anywhere...no names required
*she tells me she loves me 20 times a day
*hugs and kisses are free and plentiful
*if we didn't have a pet, Paige can become any animal in a matter of seconds
*her giggle is contagious
*she loves her siblings
*she is a snuggler
*she is a daddy's girl
*she loves to sing and dance
*she picked me to be her mom, even though sometimes I don't deserve it!
I love you, Paige! I hope you have a great 5th birthday, and many more to come!



Emily's wedding

Here are some pictures of my sister's wedding a week and a half ago. It was held at the Groves in Mesa. It was really nice, and the kids had so much fun! They were also really good all night. Emma especially loved the chocolate fountain, which explains why her dress ended up the way it did! Zachary was very debonair in his tux. He spun Paige around on the dance floor all night long! Congratulations to the happy couple! We wish you many long years of marriage and babysitting our children!! Ha!


Halloween Fun

We had so much fun getting ready for Halloween with the Hilderbrand's! We just ate, carved pumpkins, and made caramel apples. It is always lots of fun to be with them, and our kids are best friends. What better best friend than a cousin! We love you guys!
