Whirl-wind of a time

Mostly as a journal for myself, I wanted to record a few special events that happend so fast, one right after another. First, this little one turned 6. Here's a picture of her with her Tangled birthday cake at her "Princess Tea Party." It was splendid. She reminded me that she wouldn't "really" be 6 after her party, but would have to wait until her "real" birthday - a few day's later.

Cate went missing towards the end of the party, this is how I found her. Sweet dreams little one This year, I am making (or will attempt) little animals for each of our grandkiddies - this is the giraffe I made for Annie

She said she "loves" it!

A few days later, Brandon, Jamie and the kiddies made a visit for their spring break. We fit a quick family birthday dinner (for Marisa) in -

Can't get enough of our beautiful, happy little Nixon! I managed to fit a little sleep-over in with the older ones. We painted and air brushed t-shirts

Played "High School Barbie & Ken"

I mean, just take a second good look at this stunning beach Ken. Now how could Barbie ever consider leaving such a hunk?

We ate nacho's in bed as we watched a really beautiful, educational undersea movie

See what I mean?

We frosted and decorated Easter cookies -

And then, the next day Curt & I flew out to Vegas for little R & R

And to go see Donny & Marie with Ann & Reid. It was fabulous actually. When it was over Curt turned to me and said "far exceeded my expectations!" They really did a super job -

I had to say "NO" to the Marie doll -

Next night we caught the Cirque de Soleil's Beatles "LOVE" performance. Exceptional!

We also enjoyed a lot of this

So we could come home to this!

It has been a really busy last couple of weeks, but it has been a blast too.
