My parents and sister Kristie came over for dinner tonight. Good thing Bret made it, so it was delicious. After a yummy dinner, there is nothing better than snuggling with Gramper for a little story time!
Happy Birthday Bret

Happy Birthday Bret!
Luck for us, his birthday fell on a holiday Monday so we had a fun day together!
He even got the candles out in one try! Notice June is hiding from the fire in the other room!
We love you Bret, hope your day was great!
The Burrow
Saturday, February 19, 2011
I have new obsession with legos, in particular, Harry Potter legos! I love them! We started off celebrating Bret's birthday weekend by putting one together.
The finished burrow.
You can't help but love this dirty little face!
Favorite Scripture Story
Sunday, February 13, 2011
Bella was assigned to draw a picture of her favorite scripture story and tell about it for primary. She chose to draw a picture of the nativity. She likes the story because it is about Jesus. She also likes to see pictures of it with the angels and everything beautiful.
Happy Hearts
We celebrated Valentines Day Sunday morning with a great breakfast chosen by the girls, orange juice, strawberries and powdered donuts. Junie's valentine brought her a box of chocolate, a Minnie Mouse movie and a Minnie Mouse baby doll. She was thrilled.
Bella's valentine didn't forget chocolates in an owl box for her, a nintendo game and a Tinkerbell scrapbook. She was happy too.
Believe it or not, the strawberries were the first to go! My valentine remembered me with chocolates and perfume. We had a great morning all together! Hope you remembered someone you love too!
Sweetheart Jammies
Saturday, February 12, 2011
Our secret valentine brought new jammies for the girls tonight!
Junie loved her Minnies!
Bella loved her fairies!
And especially matching ones for Alex.
The best was after I finished taking their pictures, the girls posed their dolls and took pictures of them too!
Gnomeo and Juliet
Friday, February 11, 2011
We started off our Valentine weekend celebration with taking the girls to a romantic movie! They loved Gnomeo and Junie is still talking about it! As for Bret and I, well the soundtrack was great!
Excuse Me...
Last night, our secret valentine brought Junie a little princess purse with make-up, (You all know about her fascination with lipstick!), glasses and a phone. She had a great time playing with it and even took it all to bed with her. Bella was reading Junie one of her bedtime stories when Junie put on her glasses and put her phone up to her ear. She then looked at Bella and said, "Excuse me, I am on the phone." and continued to talk to Cinderella. What a kid! It was still funny when she did it again to me during our story!
Making Cookies
Thursday, February 10, 2011
I came upstairs to find Junie doing this today! She was having such a good time, I figured the mess was already there, so I just let her play for a little bit.
When I asked her what she was doing, she told me she was making cookies for Uncle Treav.
Sugar Cookie
Saturday, February 5, 2011
After decorating cookies at Grandma's, the girls went ahead and decorated them on their own the next morning. Junie wanted to make certain she had plenty of sprinkles!
Of course, pink was the color of choice. Luckily Mom found this before anyone could eat it!
Happy New Year and Valentine's Day
Friday, February 4, 2011
Per tradition, we celebrated Chinese New Year and Valentines Day together with Bret's family. Junie really loved the Chinese Noodles!
After dinner, the kids decorated cookies!
Frosting and sprinkles to their hearts desire!
We had little owl masks for each one to color!
A special cookie by Lily for her Dad!
Who loves you?
Happy Birthday Kristie
Happy Birthday Aunt Kristie! We were actually able to meet her for lunch a couple of days before her birthday, with most of the girls. It was sure fun, we hope your birthday was great! We love you Aunt Kristie! (especially because you have matching Twinkle Toes!)
