Stawberry Cork Cake.......

Well that's how Gweny says it anyway! Adeline turned 4 and she really wanted a strawberry short cake birthday party! I wanted to make her invitations(I should have put a picture of strawberry short cake on there, but I forgot!) But anywho I still thought they turned out cute!

Adeline decorated her room for the party!

The table


Grandma Thomas made Adeline's outfit! So cute she loves it!! Thanks mom you rocked it once again!!


My mom helped me make all those poof ball things too! I know she's awesome....and she is allll mine, well and Jordan's too! HAHA
Halle was the best balloon popper ever!!

I love her cute little "blow out the candles" face.
Adeline wanted the party cake mix and then my mom and I tried to decorate the cake! I think my mom was wearing more frosting then the cake was! HAHAHA



Andi, Halle, Addy, Megan
She got polly pocket from Halle, Hello kitty bag, strawberry painting book and movie from Andi, remote control strawberry car from Megan, and a Furr real pet from Us and Grandma and Grandpa Thomas. WOW she is set! Thanks everyone for coming and spending the day with Adeline!

Coaching Y-Ball

Elijah's basketball team this year didn't have a coach so at the last minute I volunteered and I am soooo glad I did! Brings back soooo many memories! I love coaching this age and I love being called COACH!! It has always been a passion of mine.....I have 9 on my team this year and they all are so great! I love watching them grow as a basketball player and I LOVE watching them love the game as well! Nothings better than watching their face light up when that ball goes into the hoop! They named themselves the Preditors and these boys couldn't be cuter! I love it!

I have decided that there are 3 most favoritists names that I love..Mommy, Love(by my husband) and coach!!


Elijah, Kolby, Patrick, Shane, MJ, Connor, Bryce, Jacob, Nicholas
They played AWESOME at their last game, we only had 6 players so they were very tired at the end, but they played so well as a team and scored 27 points!! Elijah had at least half the points, a few blocks, a couple steals, some rebounds...ya I am a proud momma/coach!!

Date Night

Tonight we went out with Codi and Austin Jones....we love them! They are hilarious and I get a side ache every time I am with them from laughing so hard! We went to the Old Spaghetti factory downtown Boise and then went and saw a movie! Great night! Thanks guys!!
Austin couldn't keep the spaghetti sauce off his white shirt!
I picked this picture because this was probably the best part of the whole movie!! HAHAHAHAHA!!! I will have to say it wasn't the best movie ever so I am glad we went to the dollar theatre!

Last of October stuffs

I made some sugar cookies for our ward Halloween party and had some leftovers. So on Sunday we decorated them for some of my visiting teachers and enjoyed the rest! YUMMY!!

More Halloween!

On Tuesday Adeline had a Halloween Party at Preschool and she won the award for most Elegant costume! She was Cinderella this year and Grandma Thomas made her costume!
I was a proud momma of that hair-do too! Actually on Friday I did an even better job!!
So I have to tell you this story! My mom found some costumes last year at Walmart for elCHEAPO and one of them was a Dorthy costume that would be the right size for Gwendolyn this year! I was soooo excited too! First I had to buy some red sparkly shoes and looked and looked at all my AWESOME second hand stores here and had NO luck so I had to break down and get them at Target. Then on Thursday night I try her costume on and it wouldn't fit!! AHHHHHHHH so I call my friend Connie on the way to the gym(she is also my gym buddy) and she is a sewer so she told me to bring it to the gym and she could she what she could do.
We came to the conclusion that we would have to cut the white shirt part out and reattach the blue to a white tshirt or onesie.....um sounds good to her but I was like uhhhhhh k so is that easy to do?. So bless her heart, she took time out of her busy day to come and fix the costume that actually looked better than before! So thank you thank you Connie! Mwuah Love you!!
So here is my cute Dorthy!


This picture makes me laugh! Totally them!
Gwendolyn as Dorthy...Ian as a Ninja....Elijah as Optimise Prime....Adeline as Cinderella
Oh yes my coconuts! HAHAHAHAH Connie and I were going to go to ZUMBAWEEN on Saturday, but I realized I had to coach Elijah's game and couldn't make it.......sooooo sad. So I wore the outfit to our CHURCH Fall Festival Party instead!
Yummy Cookies
Cool rooms to go trick or treating too, Gweny was so cute! I love the first year they start getting into it!
HEE HEE my prego friend a nun! HAHAHAHAH Loved it!
Oh Yeah Tully Park Ward ROCKS!! The Nerd, yep he is in our Bishopric!
Then on the actual Halloween my friends said we had to come down to Harrison Blvd. for trick or treating! I will have to say it is like you see in the movies...tons of kids and all that, but the waiting in line to get a candy and the actual amount of candy received didn't make it worth it. We headed out after about an hour and the kids went around our neighborhood for another 45 minutes.


 Elijah came and gave this to my and said, "Mom you have GOT to try this! It is sooo good it tastes just like paper!" LOL I started to laugh and then when he caught what he said he laughed and said, "waite it tastes like...a whole meal in one!" I think he had a little too much sugar goin' through his brain! heehee

Halloween at the YMCA

We started Halloween out this year at the YMCA! My second home! Us girls did a little cookie decorating...while Robert took the boys to the haunted house!
Got our faces painted........Adeline wanted us all to have a black cat! Great Idea Addy!
Ohhh yes the obstacle course!

Stood in a 20 minute line for a balloon animal that lasted mmmm maybe 10 minutes!
My good friend Emily and her kiddos came too!!
Doing a Halloween art project!
These two are the best of buddies! We just love watching them play and talk together! So cute!
Gwen had a go at the obstacle course too!
Me and my workout buddies, Katie and Niki! Actually they are my kick instructors and KICK my booty every Wednesday!! LOVE IT!!!
Oh yes the swards........we waited in line AGAIN for about an hour for these! Ohhh they lasted a good 3 days!! Guess it was worth it!
