Make up, chalk, yogurt breakfast, and reading library books out on the balcony and steps this morning


Trying on funny minion glasses at Scheels 

We did the Ferris wheel at Scheels for the first time as a family! We were all a bit nervous, but it was exciting overall. Both the girls were so brave!

Paisley playing with her stuffies after a few hours playing with her friends at the park. We did swings, chalk, stuffies and otter pops with Ellie, Rosie, Lizzy and James

Happy Mothers Day!
Dad made breakfast and gifts 
We went to church and Paisley did not want to get up and seeing what the rest of the Primary kids ha ha so I got snuggles instead
Dad planned a fun surprise adventure drive through the mountains, stopped at a cool over look, and up to Apache lake where we played in the water, built sandcastles, and decorated them with collected seashells 






Day trip up to Payson. Stopped off and got picnic food at Walmart. Came across a fish hatchery on the drive to our hikes of course we had to stop. Found some fun picnic tables to have lunch at. Got to feed the fish at the hatchery and the girls absolutely had a heyday. They were belly, laughing and giggling so hard as they would throw fish food into the little pond and the fish would jump up and eat it. We got to tour the visitor center where they show the progression of egg to full-size fish at the hatchery. Then afterword we did a 2 mile hike together at the Highline Trail. The girls loved building their own Karen’s next to the Karen’s on the trail. And we found a fun place to race down to a fallen tree and did that several times. And of course, the girls posed on a big rock.

We have been counting down the daaayyss! Paisleys 5th birthday party!! We invited all our friends to enjoy an evening of pizza, cupcakes, gifts and playing at the park. I was so grateful for the turnout. Paisley was so so excited. We had a blast and I couldn’t have asked for a better evening. I was stressing since this is our first year doing a party for Paisley, but all the details worked out leading up to it in the Lord’s way so it could go off without a hit. A fun Paw Patrol theme to top it off.  Raul and Rose and Natalie From Sofia (& Heather) From Haven (& Hana) Kingston, Maya, Ivy (& Aubrey) Madi (& Kristy) From Wade and Banks (& Courtney) From Evelyn and Dayton (Robyn & Dane) From Charlie and Mae Mae (Derrick & Kaitlynn) Singing Happy Birthday 5 years old
