good times...

About 10 days ago I had a slumber party at my house! Well just Auburn's kids spent the night but before bedtime we definately partied!



Basketball in my family room = high stress level! I thought for sure something would end up broken. Luckily nothing did and the kids (Lance included) were loving it.

Pizza for dinner! It was just $5 Little Ceasar's but I think I still pulled off the "cool aunt" status!


Next was karaoke - and since I was videotaping - I didn't get any still shots (see Suzanne & Alisse's blogs if you really want to see any though). Suzanne did get me singing "my boyfriend's back". The funny thing about this is that before the party actually started - Riggs, Jax & I were all warming up. I was singing lots of "Grease" songs (ugly of course) and after each one I'd ask the boys if they thought I was good. They both said yes, just cuz they were trying to be nice. I guess they didn't get that I was kidding about it!Next we had milkshakes. I think Suzanne loved them more than anyone.
She's gonna kill me but I can't help myself...
Roxy opted for ice cream instead of the milkshake. Alisse also came to party with us!
Jax finished up Roxy's leftovers. He's just like me - he loves sweets!

Here's Riggs enjoying the dessert too.
On to a different topic. I have to share this story cuz I thought it was so cute. I was upstairs showering and getting ready one day and Noah was playing downstairs. When I came down, he was sleeping with his Book of Mormon laying next to him. He had gone upstairs and got it off his nightstand to read it I guess. I had to get a picture. I'm sending it to Uncle Brad cuz he will be so proud!
Noah likes to go to 'Piper Pizza' with his Hunt Family... and picks out the funniest toys with his tickets! He loves these 'Dracula' teeth. A couple of months back, he picked out a whoopie cushion and he calls it his "farter". LOL!
Typical Sunday afternoon... Noah wearing his "basketball clothes" that are way too small.

This is the funniest thing... at my mom's house, Ellie has this doll stroller that she uses as a way to transport all her toys from one end of the house to another. The other day her and Noah piled up so many things on the stroller - and I couldn't stop laughing.
I made Noah take it all back to where it came from and stuff kept falling out. If this picture is blurry it's because I was laughing too hard to keep the camera still while taking the picture.
Ha ha...
This past weekend I went with Suzanne to the Harmony Park ward retreat. Not that I'm in that ward anymore.. but I will always feel like I'm a part of it. We had the best time, from the drive up to the drive back. My mom was there too along with the funnest ladies. It was a short 24 hour trip but it was much needed. Suzanne & shared the bed in the "birdhouse" room.. and put the self-timer on our cameras to good use. During one picture Shellene walked by and we got caught taking pictures of ourselves!!


Several rooms in this 'gianormas' cabin had the theme of sunflowers.


Other rooms had animals on the wall along with axes and other 'spooky' things. Here is Mary sitting under the ax - she was hilarious and had some good ideas about filming a scary story in the cabin. Next time we go, we're taking video cameras!
This is me, Suzanne, Mary, and Shellene enjoying lunch at El Rey in Globe. We took the long way home and it was worth it. Mmmmmm! (Self timer was put to use once again.)
So that's what I've been up to over the past few weeks!
