Helmet Heads
I was in charge of bringing treats to each of the wards for girls camp, so when the candy was all gone, the girls played with all the leftover containers. They have found many uses for these Ring Pop buckets, but this is my favorite. They walked around saying "we are the helmet heads."
Hilarious! They walked around like astronauts making funny noises all evening.

Happy Birthday to Me!
I am a day late, because I couldn't decide how painfully lame it would be to do a post of my own birthday, but since I subject the general public to my "journal" you can read it or not. I need a record though, so here you go. On my last year in my twenties I am looking forward to moving (hopefully), starting teaching again (maybe), and continuing to raise the three most incredible little people in the world. I am so happy to be married to a man who supports me and loves me. I am absolutely certain that there is not another soul in the world that is as blessed as I am!
I also had the great opportunity to see and old childhood friend who I hadn't seen in over a decade. Emily I were baptized together about 21 years ago now, and we have many fond memories. Although we were raised in different states, we were very close. Well, we finally had a mini reunion. Happy early birthday to me! Thanks for coming Emily (and Lily, Colin, and Kate)!

Your backyard friends...
THE BACKYARDIGANS!! Lizzie chose a Backyardigans themed party this year. The bright colors made it pretty easy as far as decorations and party bags went, but I struggled a little bit with the cake. I finally found some ideas online and ended up making a "Pablo" (a blue penguin for those who aren't fans) cake and "Tasha" (a yellow hippo) cupcakes. They turned out ok. Actually--I was pretty proud of Pablo! The best part is how excited Liz was about them.
Sophie, Brayden, Shane, Tori, Lizzie, Lily, Jace,
The party continued at home when Liz insisted on entertaining "Broyer" with the balloons. Lucky for us, Owen didn't seem to mind. Thanks everybody for helping us celebrate my princesses birthday!

Fourth of July Fun!
Next was the cake (which would double as a birthday cake while we celebrated three of our birthdays, Lizzie's, Tom's, and mine). Two years ago Aunt Susie was in Colorado for the fourth of July (taking care of me while I was on bed rest with Lizzie) and she made a flag cake with Tori. This year we were all together again (plus two more kids) and she made the cake again. This time Tori and Lizzie both got to help. They had so much fun!
We had a great barbecue and then we got to do fireworks--thank heavens they aren't illegal in Vegas! The girls thought they were awesome! They even got to do their own sparklers--with only one minor tragedy. Lizzie's pajamas did not make it through the ordeal...poor little accident prone child of mine!
Owen didn't love being held by the girls, but he did love the fireworks!
One small hole in the pj's...small price to pay for a fun night!

Dressing up!
Great Grandma Dorothy gave Grammy some scraps to "do crafts with." Since these weren't really craft scraps, the girls used them as dress ups instead. They had such a blast! Tori insisted that she was the queen and Lizzie was the princess and they were going to a wedding. Hmmm....such a girl!
