Girls Weekend Out!!

This last weekend Me, my mom, sister, cousin, aunt, and grandma all flew out to Denver to visit my other aunt that moved out there a couple of years ago. We had a blast! We basically just went shopping, stayed up late playing games every night, had lots of yummy food and just hung out! We sure had some gourmet meals which my uncle made for us. We also went to Cheesecake factory, Yummy! This was the first time I had ever left Makenna for more than one day, which was hard but it was fun to just relax.
This is all of us after our shopping spree. Notice all of our purchases on the table next to us!


Here we are again in front of Susan's gorgeous home before we left for the airport.

Fun at the Fair

On Tuesday night Makenna and I went to the Fair with our friends Kim and her daughter Libby. We had so much fun. We were able to see Veggie Tales on tour. The girls had a blast, especially dancing to all their songs. Then we went and saw all the animals which they were fascinated by. I think we all had a fun girls night out! (Thanks for inviting us Kim) :) This is Makenna and her friend Libby. The only way I could get a picture of them together was to have them pull a funny face.

I had to take about 8 of these pictures before I could get them to both look at the camera at the same time.

Kim and I were laughing our heads off at our silly daughters as they danced to the music at the Veggie Tales concert. It was so much fun!

Wheeler Farm

Last weekend we decided to take Makenna to Wheeler Farm. We packed a lunch and spent the afternoon checking out the animals and just hanging out. It was lots of fun.

Makenna loved feeding bread to the ducks, but she couldn't resist taking a bite herself once in awhile.

Makenna was fascinated with the turkeys.

Petting the pony's.

Mom and Makenna on the tracktor ride. Makenna insisted that it was a hay ride.

Here is Makenna's silly dance she started doing while we were eating lunch.

Silly Makenna

I don't think a day goes by when Makenna doesn't make me laugh. She has quite the imagination and definately expresses herself. I thought I would share the funny things she has been doing lately...



This is how Makenna likes to dress when she is "Going to space". Don't ask me how she comes up with these ideas.

Lately Makenna won't go to bed without sleeping in a "tent". So our new bedtime routine is making her a "tent" out of blankets for her to sleep under. And believe me, she won't let us forget it either!

Here are the sunflowers that Makenna planted with Daddy's help at he begining of summer. She was so excited when they finally blossomed! They are even taller than Daddy! These pictures were actually taken a couple of weeks ago and so they are now dying. This morning Makenna said to me "What happened to my sunflowers?" and I told her they were dying and she said, "I don't want them to go to heaven with Jesus, I want them to stay with me." I couldn't help laughing even though she was seriously on the verge of crying. Silly Makenna!
