fun at Melanie's

Happy Birthday Carter! He turned 8 years old, and we got to celebrate his birthday and baptism last Saturday. Mom flew down for the occasion and enjoyed playing with all her grandkids-

and dressing them in BYU t-shirts

My sweet blue-eyed girl
Emily really isn't mad in theis picture... she's watching something intensely. Very intensely. Jason is so proud of how well she can throw!

The littlest grandkids have too much fun with Grandma as the jungle-gym
This is one of my favorite shots of Brady as he climbs in the Jumpy
I'm so jealous that he keeps his hats on...
My new favorite store is Dollar Tree- it's suprisingly clean, organized, and you can buy more presents for the kids, like these fun spikey balls.
Brady couldn't get enough of Grandma!

Carter thanks Grandma for her birthday present
Derek has perfected the model pose and "pout" for the camera
Tyler was a little monkey in the Jumpy-house
Emily was enthralled with watching her older boy cousins play Legos, complete with sound effects and theme music! (Derek is singing the Indiana Jones theme song- I was cracking up as his voice got higher and higher!)
