Trey had a birthday like 300 days ago...okay, not that long ago but it seems like an age or two to me. And guess what the theme was??? Anyone?? Trains? oh, good guess but you'd be WRONG! It was legos....thank you Lord for a break from the train addiction!

I baked up some lego brick cakes

Threw in a few lego games like "Guess how many legos are in the jar" and Lego tower relay race
The boys, and girls for that matter, had a blast! Trey shook each gift with the anticipation of getting a lego set!


It's amazing that my first born is now 6 years old and in school and growing more independent with each year. We love this little monkey so much!! He's got a head full of ideas and knowledge and an exercised mouth to verbalize them all. He is always, always smiling!

Some things you just got to get over. The deed is done....no turning back now! It will grow back right?
This mug on the other hand needs some help!!! Was I in mid sentence? or what? Aw, don't even ask, it's pointless!
14" from me and 10" from Bre!! I hope it makes a brighter day for a little girl!
Can you guess what the theme of the party was? Our kids stayed till 11pm and they were thrilled to dress up (those pink boots didn't come off for about 1 week after the party)
Arlan broke out his western rope and rekindled his love of the Wyoming branding season. In his mind he was in the round pen searching out that brown hide when in reality it was the
Then we let the crew give their best try out on our
And (boy the girls are going to love me for this one) what would a new years eve party be without a little karaoke? Not nearly as amusing I can tell you that much!
