Happy Birthday Maycie!

FiVe!!! Blowing out the candles on her pinkalicious cupcakes.

Checking out the goods!

She told me she wanted shoes, clothes, earrings and make-up! She is not girly at all!

Super excited about her new earrings.

I can hardly believe that my baby is officially FIVE!! I love this little girl so much. She makes me laugh with all the funny things she says. Like on the morning of her birthday I asked her if she felt bigger like she was five. She said I don't know but my feet were tingling this morning so I think that means I am big like five! She is a funny kid. She has the brightest smile you have ever seen and loves to show it! She showed her smile a lot last night at Chuck e cheese!! (Yuck!) She loved it and we had a great birthday!

Yellowstone

Some of my family decided to load up the kiddos and head to Yellowstone so we decided to join them. We went to my Aunt Jeanette's cabin the first night ( thanks Jeanette and Rod!!) and then headed out to the park. Stopping for square ice cream in Swan Valley on the way to Driggs.
The kids feeding the chipmunks that lived under the little cabins we stayed in in Mammoth.

Happy kids!

Me and the girls at the falls.

The falls again BUT this time Maycie is the Photographer!

Makenely took this on of My Mom and Me and Maycie.

Oh so pretty! I didn't take a ton of pictures. Didn't really notice until I got home. I think I was enjoying the scenery and the time with the kids I kind of forgot! That's ok I have lots of memories in my head.

Top Ten Yellowstone Moments....

1. Staying at the Old Faithful Geyser Basin for 2 1/2 hours waiting for the Grand Geyser....TOTALLY worth it! So beautiful and the kids were champs waiting so long!

2. Seeing the two young buffalo's fighting! Hitting heads, scratching feet the whole bit. Then hurrying away when one of the bigger buffalo's came up to them.

3. Trying to find all the USA state license plates. All but two...Rhode Island and South Carolina!

4. Watching a bunch of people being really stupid getting way to close to an elk herd. One guy got stuck in a corner with his backed turned with an elk breathing right now his neck. Little scary. Some people not so bright!

5. The kids "art" all over the road at Keli's campsite.

6. Seeing a bear! I can not tell you how many times I have been to Yellowstone and I have never seen a bear! Super excited!

7. Having the buffalo's cross the road right in front of us. The kids loved it!

8. Getting to spend hours and hours in the car talking to my mom.

9.Listening to the kids get so excited to see any animal.

10. Watching my kids enjoy nature. Even from the car.

Makenley

This little girl had a super big day last month.....
She wanted to get baptized!

Love this little lady! I am super happy for her for this big decision she made. I know she is excited to have the holy ghost and to share her testimony.
