Headed out!

Paisley at Bethany's baby shower, Rischel is making her smile big!
We are headed to the cabin tomorrow. We are heading up to go help clean up and then Stephen will meet us there this weekend. I am excited because I haven't been there in a long time and there have been a lot of changes. So if I don't post until next Monday then you will know why. :) Hopefully I can get some great pictures! This will be Paisley's first time at the cabin.

Tonight we had a baby shower for my friend Bethany Jenks. She is having a little girl, her due date is July 18th and I am so excited for her! I had some great help getting everything together; some great food by Jenica and Rischel ( my little shout out for all!) and Amber helped with decor along with Bethany's mother-in-law, Ellen. Rischel's mom, Kathy Turner, let us have it at her house and all ran smoothly. Jenica made a lime punch that I might as well just start refilling my Mountain Dew bottles with it was so good. Bethany is actually going to be moving here shortly, just across town, so still in Moses Lake. I am excited for her, but also bummed. I remember just 2 years ago knocking on her front door and welcoming her to 10th ward. I was pregnant with Beck and she was pregnant a little bit after with her little guy Roman. I threw her a surprise baby shower at my house, I can't believe that was 2 years ago! I had high hopes for our little guys riding the bus together or doing a parent pickup together, and although my dreams may be dashed we are still in the same town and I am going to use her for her huge basement that she is going to have! Yippee! So I can't walk to her house anymore, well I could, but it would sure take me a bit! But hopefully we stay close friends....

On another note, I had to include a picture of Paisley in this pijamas nightgown that I bought from Jenica's yard sale stuff, she looks like a little pioneer! so cute! I also bought a little Harley jacket/outfit that Stephen can'tt wait until she fits into it and a few other girly clothes, I know that I don't NEED anymore, but I WANT to always get more! :)

I love baby showers! New idea (for me anyways) the chocolate fountain with white chocolate and put in either pink or blue food coloring for the baby shower! :) so cute, a pink fountain! I can't wait to go play at the cabin!

Have fun on your vacation. Also wanted to let you know that I tried the Mountain Dew dessert - it was yummy! My friend at work made it two times last weekend for events that she went too.

I love the pictures of the kids. You are so blessed with your family. I wish you were here to help with those books I'm making for the kids. I need your energy and drive. Thankyou for being a
great friend to others and a great
daughter. I loved it when you brought things for the boys. They were so excited. Thank you! MOM

You're such a good friend and thanks for throwing me such a fun shower. I really do have the best friends. I'm sure that we'll still be doing parent pick-up together because I'm going to find you a house in my neighborhood. You know that you'll be moving next door within the next few years :)
