Here are some of our recent goings on:
We had a birthday party for Miguel's dad. What a fun guy.
I made the mistake of looking up party suggestions for Maia's princess party. She turned four and has been such a patient kid this last year I decided she deserved an extra fun party! So we went all out (all out for me): red carpet (alas, I didn't get a picture!), cheap Snow White cut-outs in the doorway, a wishing well they threw a coin into at the beginning and pulled up a basket at the end for their party favor. I also asked my too kind friend to make the cake, and she went all out! I felt bad she went to so much work, and the cake collapsed on the way to my house. She rescued it beautifully -- it was sure fun! I even broke down and dressed up as the queen, in an old dress I could barely zip up! All in all, pretty fun.
Playing "pin-the-lips-on-the-frog."
Isa lost her first tooth, then she lost her second tooth a few days later! She was so excited to put her tooth in a special tooth fairy pillow her grandma gave her. I also tried to braid a heart in her hair for Valentine's Day.
Kaedon earned his Wolf badge in Cub Scouts and was able to have Grandpa witness this special event as well as speak at our recent Blue and Gold Banquet. My dad did such a great job- he spoke for the 100 year anniversary of Scouting. It was so fun to have him there. We forgot our camera! Darn it. Here is a picture of the cake Kaedon and I made for the event.

Happy Birthday Mia! She's so cute! And you look GREAT as the queen! What a fun b-day party! Congrats to Kadeon on his wolf- that's awesome!
Such a fun post! I LOVE that you dressed up for the birthday party too! Such fun happenings!
I can't believe Maia is 4 years old! IT's been too long since we've seen you... your kids look so old! Love the party, love the heart in the hair and love the cake, congratulations Kaedon!
It made me sad to see you all and know you're so far away. Joren keeps talking about his "friend in Utah, the one that's at Kaedon's house". He begs me to drive over "just real quick". I love all the good things you do for and with your kids.
Corinne! This is Rachel Anderson! It's been so long! I can't believe your baby is ONE already! She is such a doll! What a fun birthday you had for Mia! I love that you dressed up and it just looked fabulous. What an amazing cake! I loved Kaedons cake too! So creative. You are such a cute mom, and it's fun looking at your blog!
