Taylor's First Time at Young Women's

So tonight was the Stake Young Women's in Excellence Program. Taylor turned 12 this last Monday so she was officially old enough to attend. The parent's were invited so I got to go with her Rhett is working night's so he missed out. It was a very nice night and I am so thankful for the young women's program. I have such a testimony of the program I loved my Young women's day's. I hope that Taylor takes full advantage of the program I know that she will. Good job Tari it was a great night you guys did a wonderful job and I thought that you had a great turn out.

Me and My Gal Pal

So I was going through some old paper's and book's and found old High School picture's. Here are the one's of me and my Best Friend of 14 years, Joey. Oh the fun times that we had.

To go back and relive them. Most people say that they could not pay them enough to go back to high school..... well send me back there for free. I LOVED my high school day's. Joey and I had so much fun I wouldn't even know where to start to tell you.

When we start reminiscing our girls just laugh and think we are nuts!!!

Joey always kept my car aka...(charlie) nice and clean
Joey always' could come up with the outfit's.

Oh to be young again!!!

Calling up our friend's to come over, or checking in with the parent's

What good girls working on their homework

Oh the memories, I'm glad I had such a great friend, and still do!!!

I love you girl

Taylor's Party's

Well, I am officially done with birthday's until May. Yes, I am burned out. Next year I say I do all three birthday's in one. Friday night Taylor had six girls spend the night for her friend party. Oh that was just loads of fun, six 10 and 11 year olds. They broke my pull out bed, it took me an hour to try to get it back inside the couch. But I guess they had fun. Then Saturday they went to the Rec Center to go swimming. Taylor was kind enough to let her brother's come and swim with her. What a good big sister.

Then tonight we had some family over for cake and Ice cream. Uncle Dillon and Aunt Heather gave her this hat and scarf.

Great Grandma Ila gave her this big ol dog

Rhett and I gave her some Young Women's book's and a Picture of Christ hugging a girl, and a digital camera.

Then her Activities day leader Sister Cheryl came and gave her a cute willowperson, thanks so much Cheryl you were the best activity day leader ever.

Nick and Tajia gave her a purse, bath salt, and glitter body spray. What more could a girl ask for.

She got money from Gram and Pa Pete, Aunt Bev, Grama Anni and Poppy. Looks like I know where to go for a loan. lol

Aunt Dani and Uncle Justin gave her a movie, and Auni Bella, gave her a young women's values necklace. I'm sure I forgot some one. But thank you to every one.

Here are the kids trying to calm down. I think they know that Auni had, had enough.

Luke

I just had to get these cute picture's of my favorit 1 year old Lukas.

Happy Birthday Sweet Taylor

Happy Birthday my sweet Taylor. I can not believe that you are 12 years old. You are such a beautiful young woman. You have gave your dad and I 12 years of your smile's and your hugs and your loving us so much. You are so much like your dad. When you were little you idealized your dad. It was so cute. You loved to go fishing and hunting with him and to go out and shot your bow with him, you got really good at it also.
These picture's are out of order, I don't know why they are. This was your blessing day.
Great Great Grandma Blanch was holding you while Great Grandpa and Grandma Peterson and Aunt Marie, dad and mom were standing behind. You were such a good girl.

Then Great Great Grandma Manwaring, Grandpa Manwaring and Great Grandpa Manwaring standing behind us. Poppy blessed you that day.

This is my favorite picture right now you and your great grandpa mecham. I miss him so much and I know that you do to. I know that he would be so proud of what a wonderful young woman you are. Your grandpa loved you so much, he LOVED to hear you laugh when you were a baby. You would start laughing and then right away grandpa was laughing right along with you. He said he loved your laugh, you laughed from your belly.

You and your grandpa.

Your 6th grade picture,

Your fourth grade picture, you haven't changed must just getting older.

You have the most beautiful hair and I had to get this picture because you were so mad that I did your hair all fancy for something I can't even remember what it was. You hated getting your hair done. I guess I over did it when you were a little girl. You got sick of it.

Awwwww look at those cheeks.
Then you and your best pal Rosco. He followed you every where.

Taylor, I am so glad at the choices you make, and my wish to you is that you will always stay close to your Heavenly Father. I hope that you will always remember who you are. That you are a Daughter of a Heavenly Father who loves you and who will guide you on the right path's, as long as you stay close. You get to start going to Young Woman's and you will love it so much. Those were some of the best years of my life.

I love you so much and you are a wonderful part of our family. Your brother's love you to and look up to you so much.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TAYLOR JANESSA

Happy Halloween

Well, what a busy day! I am so tired that I can not go to sleep. So my pictures are really out of order and I don't want to mess with fixing them.Here is Grama Pete and Haegen and Bryce. We did not make it down to Jensen until 9:00 and believe me I tried to get down there at 5:00 but, of course my planes got derailed. Heagen was sick of his costume so he took it off.
Before we went to Grama Pete's we saw Wyatt and Aunt Ellen at Grama Mecham's

Then we have Baby Luke as a puppy, yesterday I was teaching him to bark it was so funny, and yes we had to pry the candy out of his little hands he is so funny. He is a candyholic. He was so lovey tonight. I saw him and said oh give Aunti a big kiss so he did and then rapped his arms around my neck and gave me a big hugg. What a sweetie.

Then Taylor had her big slumber party tonight and I say that Harlee won the prize isn't she just super scary cute!

Then we have Auni Bella who came in from the city to see Taylor for her birthday. Here she is trying to bond with baby Carver while trying to get her homework done.

AAAAAWWWW!!!!!

Now we have Madam Lisa, Rhett's cousin. Every year her and Jody dress up they are so creative. Jody was a mobster but I didn't get to see him he was still getting ready and I was running late.

Ohhhh look at the scary little Witch. Ellcie was so cute and don't you love her hair.

Scaryyyyy!!!!!

Then Gracie's new hair cut Haegen took the picture so you can't really see it. But, I hated it. They cut off all of her curl.

Well I guess I better try to get some sleep so that I can deal with 10 little tween girls tomorrow.

Wish me luck I will need it. As of now it is two in the morning and I can still hear them upstairs giggling and laughing. So for any of there mom's who are reading this yep i'm sure we'll be sleeping in. LOL
