Special Visitor

Dad finally brought Wynona out to meet us girls. We were the last ones in the family to meet her. Dad said he was nervous for me to meet her! Darn right!! It's just because I have high standards and just want the best for my daddy!!







She came into town on Thursday. Dad brought her to my house and of coarse I had to make a scene. I dressed up like a nerd and came to the door to meet her. Sweet lil lady didn't even notice and thought that's how I always dressed. haha. She was a good sport and we laughed about it later. Then Dad, Wynona, Heidi, Morgan, Bailey, Kyle and I all jumped in a Suburban Friday morning and headed to YellowStone National Park. We had a great time in the car. Not too many burps or flatulants were passes b/c Dad begged us to hold ourselves together.


Wynona is from Mississippi and is a Southern Bell. Very proper! Boy, was that hard for us to act proper, but we did all right :)


We cruised through Yellowstone the first day and saw a ton of Wildlife, including 3 bear, Elk, Bald Eagle, Buffalo, Antalope, chipmunk, Morgan (oh wait, that was just his beard), and all sorts of stuff. We couldn't find a moose tho :(



This was our last day. We stopped in Jackson Hole and shopped around. It's such a neat little place.
This was the arrival picture at home. See, Wynona still has a smile on her face! We did good guys!

Just to set Dad's mind at ease, we all loved her and she was a great sport to be in the car with us for 3 days straight. We even had a competition who could make her laugh the hardest. Morgan won! He always wins :( It was a great trip, and I'm glad Wynona was able to come.
She had so much fun she is coming again next week to sing with the Mormon Tabernacle Choir :)

Bailey's Birthday Bash

June 30th was Bailey's 1st Birthday!! I was way more excited than she was. I started planning her birthday party at the start of the year. haha. So on her actual birthday, I had just picked up a cupcake at the store for her and we had a little celebration. This was her covering her ears while we sang her Happy Birthday! Ha, I guess we were THAT awful!
She was having a blast getting all dirty!

She's like, "Okay Mom, we almost done with the Ooo's and Awww's?"

All right guys, Now I'm REALLY bored!
So that night we just went and played softball and had a nice little evening.
July 3rd was her big Birthday Bash! We went to the near by church field and had a good ol time. My friend Cheryl made the ADORABLE cake! It was a huge hit. Then we had a potluck and hung out. Followed by some sand volleyball, horseballs, and frisbie throwing. It was a nice relaxing day at the park and Bailey skipped her naps and was still so pleasant. We put her to bed that night and then all ran back over to the pavillion and sat and watched the 4th of July Fireworks from the Stadium of Fire. Great day! Bailey will think the Fireworks are for her birthday every year. How special :)





Of coarse I had to buy her a fire truck :)
