Family

Every year after we have my moms party we have my aunts, uncle and cousin over. We just repeat the dinner we had with her friends. I feel it is so important to keep family close.
Don set the timer on the camera as you can see the first picture we were ready for but this one was a candid one because it took 5 in a row. I love it because the smiles are so real.
This is my mom's brother, his wife and their daughter.
My aunt, uncle, and first cousin. I enjoy having them over and most of all that I have a husband that feels the same way. Families Are Forever!!!
My Activity Day Girls did such an amazing job decorating these cupcakes.
I love how all of the leaders work so well together. It makes our calling so much easier when we know that we can count on each other.
Say Boo:-)
Look how cute they all looked. Faith looks so much like her mom, she is the one being a bride.
I have loved my calling. I don't think I would ever get tired of it. I know that it looks like we are only having fun but when you are having fun you are learning. Learning doesn't mean it has to be boring. This age is so teachable. I love them all so much and I can not wait until the next time we meet:-)

Mom's Party 2011

Why we have the party. My sweet mom, she gets excited like a little kid. When she was growing up she never had any type of party the she was able to invite friends. Every year it seems to increase by 1 or 2 friends she invites.
This is the group this year plus 1 so a total of 14. They all look so beautiful:-)
We told them they were queens. A lot of them told us they have never been treated like queens before. I thought that was really sad. I hope we all try and treat our older women with love and respect.
We did 2 big tables this year and it worked so much better:-)
Don and sweet Aja serving. I know I'm always saying things about Don but I feel I can never say enough. He is my prince. I always think how did I get so lucky only being 17 and having the man of my dreams. I'm not saying we never fight but in the end he is always by my side and the first one usually to say I'm sorry not because he is always wrong. but because he knows how stubborn I am...lol..I love you Don thank you for all you do for me and my mom:-)
