More OCD.

I just got some vintage little people off ebay for Madeline. I used to play with them as a child and love them. I like the vintage little people alot better than the newer ones. Madeline loves to line them up. I don't think she'll ever stop being OCD. I love the picture with the little people in their cars. The cars are actually my moms. I used to play with them when I was younger.

Madeline was so excited about her little people. When she opened the box, she said, "Thank you mama. These are the most peoples i've seen in my whole life." She's only seen the ones that my mom has, so she was excited to see a lot of little people.

Family Reunion

Today was the annual Edmunds Spanish Fork Pool Party/Reunion. My Grandma rents the Spanish Fork swimming pool for one and 1/2 hours and then we head over to Mapleton to eat lunch and play. It was good to see some of my relatives that I haven't seen in a while. This year Madeline could go down the waterslide by herself (with a life jacket, of course). She was so proud of herself. I can't even count how many times she went down the waterslide in just one and 1/2 hours. Madeline is growing up so fast.

Visiting the sheep. They have grown a lot since I saw them last.
My Dad and brother rode their bikes from Orem to Spanish Fork, then to Mapleton and back to Orem. So, of course, I had to get a picture.

Happy Pioneer Day!

We really did go back to Florida, but now Maddy and I came back to Utah for Pioneer Day and a family reunion. We celebrated Pioneer Day at Scera Park with extended family on my mom's side. We ate lunch, played games, and had lots of fun. The kids played water games with sponges and water balloons and had a blast. Paul's band, Cobet, rocked the house. A group next to ours asked if we wanted to participate with the CANDY CANNON. It's like a potato gun or cannon except you fill it with candy. The kids absolutely loved it and I enjoyed watching them run for the candy. What a fun idea!

Visiting Grandma great.

Everytime we visit Utah, we go see my grandmother. She is almost 94 years old and such an amazing person. It's so much fun visiting with her. I hope that Madeline will remember her. I barely remember my great-grandmother on my mother's side because she died when I was young.

Happy Birthday Brian!

So guess where we celebrated Brian's birthday? That's right. Texas Roadhouse. What's not to love about that place. The food is great (I especially love their rolls and loaded sweet potato) and if it's your birthday, you get to ride a saddle. What more could you want for your birthday? Yee-haw!

Playing with the cousins.

Today I went to my cousins house for Lisa's baby shower. Courtney is taking violin lessons and she is only five. Her violin is so LITTLE. This is a picture of Madeline with the violin. It's so cute.
