Katelyn's Fourth Birthday

Katelyn turned 4 years old last week and I wanted to show some pictures of the day we had. She was under the weather but we had fun at home. I can't believe I have a 4 Year OLD!! What..I love her more than anything, and can't imagine our lives without her. She has brought so much joy and love into our home. Love you Sweet girl!


If you are in need of a fun and easy cake, just take in any picture or edited picture like I did above and they will print it for you at Albertsons for like 5 bucks, then you just make the cake and put it on.
The Barbie Car she has always wanted from Nana and Papa
Baking a cake - I think I need to make Tate an apron now.

Katelyn's New Blanket - Yeah! I finally finished it. With the help of my mother-in-law on the ruffle! Thanks Alice!
And I loved this, I don't have a scanner, but this will do. This is Katelyn's Christmas List for Santa...it says a barbie, pony, lagoon, dress and stickers - love Kate!

A FUN LITTLE PARTY!!

Here are some fun pictures of the party on Monday. Katelyn LOVES Fancy Nancy so this was perfect. We had some yummy food, crafts, manicures, musical chairs, pin the jewel on the tiara and a pinata...plenty for a party planner like me. We didn't even have time to read the book. I had really fun making the food - surprise! Thanks Shar for letting me use the cake stand. I found some fun stuff for the girls to go along with the theme. All the little girls were so darling. It was fun to have all of Katelyn's favorite friends over to celebrate. Now we are all under the weather so we are glad we got to Part-ay! Thanks for everyone who came!

The Happiest Place On Earth..warning picture overload!!!

We planned a very last minute trip to Disneyland last week. We flew over on Wednesday and spend two days in Disneyland and one day just relaxing and going to the Beach. We had such a fun memorable vacation. The kids absolutely loved it. Katelyn was in heaven with all the cute characters throughout the park. She loved taking her Autograph book around to all of them and having her sign it. Tate was a little, or a lot, afraid of them; he would clench his legs together and hold on for dear life. They also have a cute playhouse disney play with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Little Einsteins, and Handy Manny that my kids loved. The kids loved all the rides too, they were awesome! I don't think they cried one time. If you haven't been to Disneyland in December it is for sure the best time. They have it all decorated for Christmas, including a lot of rides. They also have a darling holiday parade, a spectacular firework show and IT SNOWS! The Magic of it made get a little teary eyed, it was such a fun way to start the season. We were so grateful we got to have a fun trip together to create such fun memories! And just plan ahead, we have lots of picture - of course, it is Disneyland!!!Katelyn is so funny...she LOVES to have her picture taken, Tate - not so much!I love this picture, Pluto signing Katelyn's Autograph book

Beach Pictures





We went to a little beach on our way to the airport. I think it was Hermosa Beach, it was a cute little town that we happened to run into to. We are glad we did. It is funny how beach pictures are always cute right! Katelyn loved all of it so much. Tate was a little scared of the water at first and then he liked that he could run away from it and scream and act afraid. He thought he was pretty funny!

We had a fun Thanksgiving weekend down in St. George this year. We spent the dinner with Preston's Mom's side, The Atkins. The food was so yummy and we had lots of fun at it. We did a little shopping on Friday and did some fun family stuff. It was such beautiful weather down there and we loved getting out for fun nature walks. Katelyn and Tate have so much fun with their St. George cousins, we wish we could see them more!
