Halee's Birthday

Well its official? My baby girl is 7, yes 7 years old. How time flies when you're having fun! Halee had an eventful birthday this year, and one that was not only one day, but a whole week of festivities. The week started with three consecutive nights of shopping. First was Grandma Tarina, next with Aunt Laura (Lou) and a third with Grandma Pat. They all took her out to spent some time alone with her and let her pick out what she wanted. (Thanks mom for the "Bling Bling" sequened hat that she loves. It is like a disco ball. It reflects light off of it on the car celing. Vance is quite entertained by this. Friday we got have luch at Hal's favorite place, Soup or Salad. Friday night had her Luau themed birthday party, perfect for a balmy Utah November!
We made our own Hawaiian leas ate pizza and had lots of girly fun! Thank goodness I had Melissa, and Jim here to help. Thanks for all the great presents and the nights out, she is a very lucky girl and we love her so much.
Happy Birthday Baby!

Long Lost, Neglected Blog!

Whew! October has come and gone, but I thought I should at least try to sum up our month of craziness! first pic is my adorable kids and my cute little niece enjoying the sandbox for the last time this year, boo! there will always be next year!
I love Halloween, and this year was awesome! I got to dress up for two fantastic parties We had a rather quick trip to the pumpkin patch this year. Vance loved pushing the wagon around. Hal chose her costume this year and decided to be a devil! She was gorgeous, and as fate would have it so did her betrothed husband Max hahaha they are meant for each other! Ashlee did the annual Traynor party early this year so that our cute friends Sam and JM could be there for it. There were such cute costumes, I can't believe how creative they get. I will have to do a slid show for it, some you just gotta see. Thanks Ashlee for letting me sport my plig outfit, and to Heather for letting me make up for the not so attractive Plig and come as Betty Boop. That costume was harder to pull off than I thought it would be...I don't have an apple shaped head!
