When I told Kylie I needed to put Nate's birthday pictures on our blog she said, "What? His birthday was a month ago!" Observant, isn't she?
Anyway, for those of you who know me well, I never have the patience to do desserts like the one seen above. However, my good friend, Megan, was willing to help the cake-decorating-impaired person that I am.
We had his party at Spring Creek Park. My kids always want their parties here so they can play in the sand, water or on the playground. It's a beautiful park and we will miss it when we move.
The wee Miss Kaitlyn Grace. Don't be fooled by that sweet face, she'll make you walk the plank.
The birthday boy. Please note the pirate pinata. After Kaitlyn's Jedi party, all my kids need pinata's now.
Nate, Lucy (who he either hugs or fights with), Kaitlyn, and cousin Dani.
Our neighbor Jonny, cousin Ben (the spy), Kylie and cousin Natalie (ice skater extraordinaire)
Seth and our little ninja. Nate loves Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and has picked up their moves-watch out!
Craig, Seth and Trisha
Everyone who comes to State College has to get their photo with the Nittany Lion...it's a law. We are so grateful we could have this day with the Oceanside Dixons.
After four years out of Utah, I had the opportunity to return for a writer's workshop at BYU. We didn't talk about Stephenie Meyer much...not more than ten times a day, anyway. The bag of apples they gave us were bruised, but they made a great photo op.
Memorize these faces. This is the future of young adult chic lit.
Each morning we had a workshop with author, Janette Rallison. Okay, so I look terrible, but isn't Janette cute?
Here is where Seth and I met so long ago.
