Me and my girls on Halloween. Brandon is in there too with his little girls. Brandon and I are the Program Directors. He stopped by with his kids to say hey. These are all the girls out of all 17 who were on the right level to dress up. Like my costume? I was a piro lumberjack. I had fun burning my shirt and shorts with a lighter. Guess I got that from Tyler. Hahaha. I had tons of activities for the girls to do and since it was on Sunday we celebrated on Saturday but also did some crafty things on Sunday that were Sunday appropriate. It was a fun weekend. I don't work Saturdays anymore but I was in Vegas the Sunday previous so I worked Saturday (Halloween) to make up for it. It ended up being a lot of fun. I love my job!

Jen's Birthday

Today was Jen's birthday! I gave her a saw. You would think that a saw would be the last thing a girl would want for her birthday, but that's what Jen wanted! She has been talking about getting one so she doesn't have to go to Home Depot all the time to get her 6 free cuts every time she makes a new craft. After I decided to get her a saw for her birthday, she suggested we get one for Christmas. She was very excited when I came home with it much earlier than that! She already has her first piece of wood ready to cut!

Here she is with her saw.

The kids and I decorated the house with Birthday decor while she was at the Relief Society broadcast.

Luke and Isaac were very excited about these birthday blower things.

I even made her favorite cake - no bake cheesecake!

Here's a video of our beautiful singing voices.

Happy Birthday babe! I love you!

Happy Birthday Jen!

You are a woman of faith, strength and courage! You are a wonderful mother and wife and we are so lucky to have you in our family! Happy Birthday!

this is freakin funny
