Bailey Halloween Party

We had our annual Halloween party at Joys house this year.
 We recycled our old skeleton costumes this year, like I've said in posts before I don't have much energy these days, so it was nice Wesley wanted to be a skeleton. Jaycee rebelled this year, she was a witch, but she let me put bones on her belt and she had a skeleton neckless and she carried around a skull. Compromise.
 They are pretty cute.






 It's always fun when we can all get together.  The kids kind of get lost at Joys house.  They go downstairs and we don't see them again until it is time to go.  We did gather them together long enough to eat and get a picture.  They also played a couple of game. The fish pond and the cake walk.
 I love that most of my family dresses up.  Heather was dressed up, but she didn't want to be in the picture.  Trevor and Katie were they only ones who didn't dress up this year.
 The kids also decorated a sugar cookie and took care of a couple pinatas.
 Bensen sat so patiently waiting for his turn.
 Looks like Wesley might hit left.  We will have to watch that.

The kids had a great time. We love getting together with our family. Good food, good times.

Borgstrom Memorial

There was a man who came to Tremonton to do a little lesson on the meaning of the service flag. It was pretty interesting.  The reason we were invited was because of the Borgstrom brothers. Four died in the war, all in different places. Then Mike's Grandpa was honorably discharged. After the meeting we went to the graveyard.





 After the graves we went over to the Memorial they but in over 10 years ago.

 It had started to rain by this time so we didn't stay very long. 


 But the kids liked it. I hope they will someday understand and appreciate all the men and women who sacrifice so that we can enjoy the freedom that we have.
 After the memorial we drove by the house that Grandpa Randy grew up in.
Then Mikes parents took us to Madox.  I think it was the first time I have been there. It was pretty fun.  There was a guy playing the fiddle, the bread and rolls with the butters were amazing. Over all it was a great day.
When we got home Mike and the kids found this guy. It was the biggest slug I have ever seen. Had to document it. :)

Mike had a Birthday!

Happy Birthday Mike!
He turned 38 this year. His birthday was on Sunday this year so me and the kids made him breakfast.
We went out on a date a couple days before his birthday.  This year Mike bought himself a shot gun, and a case to go with it! 
I sure love him, he is the best husband ever! Right now I'm not much good for anything, so a lot of the time he ends up making lunch, dinner and doing the laundry. He does all the grocery shopping, yard work, and that's on top of working his regular job! He really is amazing!
He's the best Dad ever.  The kids love him so much. He loves taking them places and doing fun thing with them. When he goes into work (which is once a week) Bensen mopes around looking for him. It's actually pretty cute.
He is such a hard worker, and we love him!
Thanks for taking such good care of us Mike, we love you!

Happy Birthday Wesley!

Wesley turned 6 today!
To start the day off we went to breakfast at Denny's.
 Before Jaycee left for school Wesley got to open one present. He had been asking for Mario Maker for a couple of weeks...its all we've heard about. 
 So while Jaycee was at school he got to try it out.  He loves it.  It is actually pretty fun, it would be better if it was for more then one player.
Later that night we had his party in our backyard. Mike set up some targets so the kids could shoot the blow guns. We had up the bean bag toss I made for his 3rd birthday, and we had set up the Frisbee golf basket.  So there was a lot to entertain the kids.
 Wesley loved everything he got!
Another thing Wes had been talking about for a while was a metal detector. I think he is really going to like it!
 Grandma LouLou made him a pillow bed.
Grandma and Grandpa Bailey gave him a money sorter.
 He picked out a Minion cake and he helped me decorate it.
Wesley is such a good kid.  He is very helpful, especially right now while I've been sick (pregnancy) he helps me with everything, especially with Bensen.
He's started playing basketball and he loves it!
He loves to play with his cousins, him and Brody are best buds.
He likes to ride his bike.
He's turning out to be a pretty good reader.
He likes school, which is so nice! He whips through his homework.
He doesn't like to admit when hes wrong or say he's sorry...but who does? :)

We sure love him and we are so glad he came into our family.
