Birthday Parties!

We celebrated Scotlyn's 9th birthday this year. She is really into comic books, especially Calvin & Hobbs, so all of the girls brought their favorite stuffed animal.
They played "Duck, duck goose" with their animals.

They watched two Halloween shows - Monsters Vs. Aliens & Shrek Halloween. Then we had pizza, opened presents and decorated cupcakes. The weather was perfect for it. It was a wonderful party!



Since Scotlyn, my dad and I all have birthday's within a week of eachother, we usually end up celebrating them all together. We had dinner at our house on Scotlyn's birthday. Mike made a wonderful dinner with grilled chicken & salads. A true end of the summer BBQ!

Every year on her birthday, the weather has been cold, until this year. This is a picture of her a couple of days ago, when she decided she was going to build a hot air balloon and fly to Salt Lake. She packed a change of clothes in her backpack and took food with her in the box. She also had a few toys with her, but when she was ready to fly, she realized that there was not room for her to sit in the box. She kept saying to me, "Mom, this is really going to work. I'm going to Salt Lake, I'll be back later". It was too cute. She never did make it to Salt Lake, but she didn't seem too disappointed that she didn't fly. I love how at this age, they lo...
