Kevin and Amanda's Wedding

Kim has enjoyed using her new Silhouette. She got a chance to really try it out making some gifts for Kevin and Amanda

 One of our trips to the arboretum


 Ready go! The long drive to Welling. Good thing Lyza is so pleasant.
 We made sure to stop at a park in Cranbrook along the way. We had a picnic and got some wiggles out.
 Once we got to Welling on Thursday night it was straight to decorating. Lyza was the lucky one because she got to play kitchen while we worked
 Playing with the rocks and flowers outside of Grandma's house
 Kim had the honor of making the wedding cake. It was the first wedding cake she had made and it turned out great

 She also got to ice all of the cupcakes for the family dinner dessert (about 170 cupcakes!) because she had the most experience and did the best job (Thanks Rachel)

 Whille Kim was icing Sydney put on a fashion show


 That's a lot of cupcakes!
 We didn't really take many pictures of all of the decorating, but here is what it looked like. It was really nice
 Lyza getting all ready for pictures after the ceremony. The ceremony started at 12:30 and Lyza usually naps around that time, so pictures afterward were not her favorite.
Look at that cute little flower girl!
 Snuggles with Grandma

 The bride and groom. They were both so happy all day long. They are really good together and it is obvious that they are happy together

 Speaking of happy together...


 Cute flower girls



 Mother and Daughter

 Lyza loves Sydney

 The finished product. I think she did great. (Abigail thought it was a Barbie cake)
  Sydney and Abagail dancing
 Because Lyza was so tired the only way we could get pictures with her and the other girls was to hold her. The reason I look so ridiculous is because I am trying to get out of the picture. Guess it didn't work
 Wes took some great family photos for us. Thanks Wes!


 Kim and her grandma
 On the way home we stopped at a park in Kalispell and there were some ducks and geese to keep Lyza entertained
 Lyza checking out the trout at the store in St. Regis. Which store? The only one. Haha
 I love seeing my two girls getting ready in the morning. Lyza always gets up on the toilet next to mommy. It is really cute.
 And of course, a bowl/hat
 Just hanging out, drinking milk in her toy container.
And what is a post without a dancing video?

 That's all for now. Take care.

Videos and a Quick Update

Since it takes so long to upload videos we don't add as many as we would like to. Here are a few that are too good to pass up:
Here is a video with Lyza and her cousins in Radium. She absolutely loved  playing with her cousins.
Here is the next verse of the same song:

This is a video of Lyza showing off some of her dance moves and muscular physique:
Lyza loves playing with her barn. She has a great time with the farmer and the animals
 Here Lyza layed out all of her finger puppets, then asked me for a blanket so she could put them to sleep. She gave each and every one of them a nigh-night kiss!
 Riding the donkey at the park

 Weeeeeee!
 She loves the "tunnels"
 Hanging out at the doctor's office
 Lyza loves swings. This was at our ward party on Friday night. Her cumulative time on swings was easily over an hour.

 Lyza also loves looking at pictures. She will sit down and watch slideshows of pictures and point out everyone and everything she sees
 While Kim was getting Lyza dressed the other day Lyza insisted that she wear her pajamas over her clothes. Good thing we didn't have to leave the house
 Fun times finger painting



 Big Sister!

 
Since you made it this far you get the reward of watching another awesome dance video
 
That's all for now. Take care.
