McKay's Thanksgiving Feast at School . . .


I was in charge of coordinating a Thanksgiving feast for McKay's Kindergarten class. I was really excited with the choice of napkins, plates, cups and silverware that I purchased, it really matched everything nicely. I assigned several mothers to bring food and then we served the food to the children and teachers. It was a really nice party.

The girls made pilgrim hats for the feast. Two of the girls on the left are in our ward, Maddie and Tanna.

The boys made pilgrim hats or Indian hats. The boy on the left is one of McKay's really good friends, Adam, and they play together twice a week.

Here are the children and teachers enjoying the feast together. Some of us mothers served the food.

Hi McKay, are you having a fun day today?

Thanksgiving Decorations . . .






Steven and I love decorating for the holidays. We don't have too many Thanksgiving decorations, but we did get a few new ones this year.



We Love Fall at Our Home . . .


The trees are so gorgeous during the fall. I especially love the brilliant red colors.

Steven and I both love fall and celebrating holidays.
Steven spends a lot of time raking up the leaves, but this was a fun picture of him on a Sunday afternoon in the backyard. Not too many leaves had fallen at this time.

Lookin cute Taylor.

Happy Halloween . . .


I took McKay and Jessika trick-or-treating in the car because it had been raining in the afternoon. We were able to go to a lot more houses because McKay wasn't so tired walking too much. Taylor went over to Sara Bourgerie's house to hang out with Sara.

McKay's costume got a little dirty, but he sure had a fun evening. After we finished our trick-or-treating, we picked up Taylor and Sara and went over to my parents house for donuts and chocolate milk. It was good to see my parents. Thanks Mom for the yummy treats.

Hi Sara and Taylor. Hope you guys had a fun evening.

Hey Jessika, love that vampire outfit.

Visit from Mandi on Halloween . . .

Mandi and her boyfriend Andrew came over with Mandi's son Orson on Halloween to wish McKay a happy birthday. They also brought him a really nice birthday gift, an easel. McKay really loved his gift. Thank you Mandi, we love you guys.

Everyone loves the guy in the cage. He makes a lot of noise when you clap, etc.

McKay's Cute Cousins . . .


Look how adorable Brynlie and Hallie look. Have you ever seen a sweeter Little Bo Peep and her little lamb?

McKay had a Toy Story theme for his Birthday party, look how cute Lucie looks. McKay also loved that Coleman was Buzz Lightyear like McKay was.

Kaden and Ryker looked so cute in their costumes. Lacie was so sweet to bring the boys by, especially being pregnant.

My nephews and nieces are so supportive of McKay's birthday party every year. I love my family so much.

This is a sweet picture of Hallie, she was so tired.

Friends at McKay's Party . . .






McKay has a lot of nice friends in the ward. We always do a Halloween theme birthday party since McKay's birthday is on October 28.
