We have this great girl in our ward that babysits for us sometimes. She's one of those great sitters that actually cleans up after the kids, puts them to bed on time, and will talk to you about the night when you get home. I thought all sitters were like that, but we've learned this last year that a good babysitter is hard to find! So she turns 18 this week and since we like her so much I made her a special cake for her big day. Too bad she isn't turning 16 so she'll be around longer :(

Disneyland Adventures


We're home!!! What a fun and busy week we've had. We left Easter sunday and went down to St. George where we spent a few days with my mom and dad at their new place down there. The plan was for mom to come with us to California and help with the kids, but she decided it would be easier to keep Clayton and stay home so just the 4 of us, me Aaron Parker and KC, headed off. Poor Clay ended up being really sick and miserable while we were away so it was probably better he didn't end up coming. But we sure missed him.
We went to the park Wednesday morning and only lasted till about 2, then we went back to the hotel and crashed for the rest of the day. Thursday we did much better and made it till evening before the kids started to melt down and we had to call it a day. Friday we went for the afternoon and evening and it was going pretty good till KC got sick in the middle of the souvenir shop, poor guy. That night Parker got sick too so Saturday was a nice relaxing day sleeping in till noon then going to the beach for a few hours.
I loved Disneyland. California adventures was okay, but not my favorite. Even though it was really crowded I loved all the people and the atmosphere. It was so fun to see how excited the kids got about everything. Parker especially loved the star wars ride and show. Darth Vader even made an appearance. It was pretty cool.

Happy First Birthday!!!






This cute little guy turns 1 tomorrow! Time goes way to fast. But this next year is my favorite age so we are excited. I just can't believe we've already had a whole year with this boy. Love him so much!!!! Since we just got home from vacation last night and Aaron had to leave again this afternoon for the rest of the week we didn't have much time to celebrate. But we managed to throw together a little cake and get some pictures at least. Isn't he just the cutest ever??
