Joshua's 6th Birthday Party

Our sweet Joshua celebrated 6 years! He's always been such a joy to us. Joshua is very loving, plays hard, talks loud, enjoys his friends and family and all around good. He is really enjoying kindergarten this year and reading rather well. He has a very best friend Ty who he plays with all the time. Joshua plays well with his siblings and tries to do everything they do. He is a smart kid!

We love you, Joshua! 



Mason Lucas Alvey

Jed and Aubrey just had a little boy, Mason. He's adorable and got the cutest little cheeks! Congrats to our family in Illinois! You guys did great!  

Senior Prom

Zack and I attended the Pine View High senior prom (as chaperones). It was lots of fun! We got all dressed up, danced a little, goofed around a lot, walked around, ate some yummy treats and laughed a whole bunch.

It was very different than my senior prom. They didn't take formal pictures, with technology now days the kids usually just whip out their phones anyways and their parents take pictures beforehand too. (The yearbook staff was nice enough to take a snapshot for us though!) The king and queen were crowned at an assembly instead of at the dance. They did have a song played for them but it wasn't really a slow song though. These kids do more bouncing than actually dancing now days, there was very few slow songs even played maybe 5 in 3 hours.The music was very new to me. We only heard about 10 songs that we knew. The kids loved it though!  I guess we're getting old but it was still fun to spend some time together and act like kids again!

 

Don't worry Zack lead the dancing out on the floor at first which was a little frightening, let's just say there was moon walking involved. Yikes! It did brought plenty of attention to the dance floor and got the party started!

This girl has style!

This little one will keep you on your toes!

Our little sunbeam

Matthew started sunbeams this Sunday! He was a still a bit embarrassed about his lack of hair so we found a cute Sunday type hat for him. It works well with his little vest. He loved Sunbeams! The change to Primary wasn't a challenge especially with Daddy and his big brothers there. Plus his favorite little friend Kirsten was in his class. His new teacher, Sister Staples even gave him a treat at the end. He was beaming!

Nerd Glasses

What a cute little nerd she is! Zack used these glasses for his halloween costume and Katelyn thought they were cute so she wore them to school. Watch out the 80s are back! Neon colors and silly things like big nerdy glasses. At least the large bangs haven't made their way back too.

A haircut

Matthew got all clever while Mom was in the shower! He found Daddy's razor and decided to shave his head. The only solution for this hairdo was a really close shave! He wasn't really happy about the hair cut after.
