see past the brown, see the beauty

I should be sleeping, I really should be, but can't seem to pry myself from this screen filled with blog after blog of people who I don't know but seem to find their lives interesting enough to stay up and read about. I apologize for not updating yet, I am overdue and have had requests for the cute fairy pictures, but just haven't done it yet. I think the main reason is because they didn't upload to picassa and went into adobe instead and therefore takes longer for me to upload and it has just overwhelmed me to think about so I keep putting it off. But I promise, soon, I will get them up. To fill the void here are some tender moments I have to share. Today I got a much coveted and needed nap, I wasn't feeling the best and had a shoe shindig to hit up so a nap was a must. I got Ryken down and Jasmin came in and said she wanted to take a nap to so curled up behind me in Daddy's spot and proceeded to fake snore ( like Daddy, not like Mommy :) ) Anyhow I told he...

Our Elder's Quroum had a date night last Friday and Grammy Lewis was kind enough to babysit. We went to the Home and Garden Expo before heading over to the dinner, it ended up being a nice date night out. This dinner was SO much fun, not because they had a Wii bowling tournament after dinner, or because the food was all that exciting ( hogi yogi sub :s ) but we as Play Group Parents ( PGP pride ;) ) sat together and just had a blast. This was the first parent's only thing we have done and it was a nice change up. Granted we did a New Year's Eve Party, but the girls were there and so not the same as just sitting and talking with each other and enjoying each others' company without worrying what the girls might be up to :) It was fun to sit and talk and relax and laugh and just have a good time. Ha, sorry Deborah, she is having some back issues with the pregnancy and laughing would make it hurt, but we couldn't help ourselves, we were just having such a good ti...

So the first aren't exactly beauty shots... who are we kidding, they never are... either way these are not the most flattering, but only ones taken of myself at the party so there you go. The last pic does not do justice for how funny Hailey's reaction to use singing to her was. We started singing so she crouched down and started sneaking to the kitchen looking for a cake with candles, totally hilarious. Happy late birthday Hailey, thanks for inviting us to your fun party, and for getting so excited over our gift to you ( we gave her two, but she liked the "that's not my princess" book more than the nightgown, go figure :) )

So yes, last Tuesday we went to Hailey's Winnie the Pooh party. It was so fun! We unfortunately were late due to coming from dance, but we got there in time for this game of throwing the bees into the honey pot and then the WTP themed lunch. I will have to pull picks from the brady blog so that you can see how cute the lunch was. Things like Rabbits Trees (broccoli) Tiger's Tails (cheeto puffs) Eeyore's Rain Cloud ( blue jello with whipcream on top) and Piglets PuhPuhPizza :) So much fun!

This duck game was one of Jasmin's favorites. She loved the slide as well :)

The first time we went here Jasmin would not ride this ride. This time she kept asking :) Then we put little man on a few of the tamer rides and he loved it.

We went to Chuck-e-Cheese's for Melanie's Birthday. Enjoy a pic overload of that joyous occasion :)
