Happy Birthday Justin!



Yesterday was Justin's 32nd birthday. THe kids made this great hat for him to wear while we sang happy birthday and ate birthday pie. The night before J and I went to the temple and while we were there we ran into some old friends from college. After the temple we all went out to eat at McGrath's which was great! It was a lot of fun. They had the absolute best birthday hat there. I really wish I would have had my camera with me. It was like a huge fish made out of pottery and formed into a hat. It was hilarious! He also got to go fly fishing on Friday, so it was a pretty good weekend for him.

LEGOMANIA!!

Yesterday was Justin's birthday so all of the kids made him a lego sculpture to help celebrate. I just had to post pictures of them because some of them were really cool.




Samantha's cactus girls.



John's Robot



Nathan's baby girafe



Joseph's robot.

Sleepover




Samantha had her first sleep over the other day with her friend Victoria. I have to say that girl sleep overs are soooooo much better than boy ones. The girls were really cute and dyed their hair and put make up on and finger nail polish. It was a lot of fun. Plus those two are so mild mannered it was just a piece of cake to watch them. Victoria's brother Eddie also spent the night. (He is one of Joey's friends) so everyone had a great time. Just the boy room was rowdier than the girl one and none of the boys wanted me to dye their hair. Instead they got out all of their pokemon cards and dueled all night long. Even Nathan had a his friend Emilio over for a while, while his parents celebrated his mom's birthday. It's nice to see all of the kids making good friends.

GQ Joe




The title says it all. I can't believe how good looking and old Joey is starting to be. It is amazing. John too, I just have to convince him that he wants to get dressed up and let me take pictures of him . . . hopefully soon we'll have new pictures of everyone. (Justin's the really hard one to convince.)
