Baby Brother Graduated

Elisha's baby brother, Christian, graduated Friday, June 1 from Davis High.  We can hardly believe it but feel so proud!  Great things are sure to come!

Harrison's Party

We had Harrison's birthday at JC Mickelson's in Nephi Saturday, June 2nd.  Not only is it conveniently half way for all the family members, but they have a great train-theme running (literally) throughout the restaurant.  It couldn't have been a more perfect choice.  We had the back room, so it was private and everyone was able to be there.  We had a fantastic time!

Cake from Harmon's - of course!  Continuing the train theme with Thomas.

Our BIG birthday boy!  He was SO excited!

Shea gave a great gift - every morning for a week Harrison woke up to sing

Is this not sweet?  They're having too much fun.

Harrison's 3rd Birthday

We spent Harrison's actual 3rd birthday day together as a family at Fiesta Fun, an arcade.  What a blast we had - all four of us!
We can't believe he's already so big!  Some things Harrison loves are Pixar Cars (he calls them PixCars), Toy Story, racing and crashing cars with Daddy, dancing with Mommy, teasing Kendall, coloring, teaching signs, riding his bike outside, and running everywhere.

In our new favorite book "Happy Birthday Little Pookie" Pookie gets a balloon on his birthday.  We thought this would be a fun tradition.  After saying he wanted practically all the balloons and balloon bouquets, he landed on this gigantic Mater balloon!  It was eating Kendall in the car- he didn't like that.

Harrison's favorite game was just watching the tokens go down the slide

Kendall's checking out the prizes.  We didn't exactly hit the jackpot.

Harrison won a spinning top, small car, and 2 Tootsies

Harrison and Mommy made chocolate brownie cupcakes with cherry frosting - Harrison's choice!  Here he is blowing out his candle.

Harrison's Three!

Happy 3rd birthday, Harrison! 

Ivaneide's Wedding

It's the big wedding!  I drove up Friday with the boys, who stayed with Grandma and Papa McCullough.  The wedding was Saturday morning at the Salt Lake LDS Temple.  I was so happy when Michelle found me waiting nervously.  I wasn't sure I'd know anyone there.  I'd already remembered Keith's name wrong, so I had to double check the list at the desk.

The ceremony was beautiful, of course.  Both in the couple were glowing with love and affection.  I felt lucky to be right in Ivaneide's line of sight.  

Later in the afternoon there was a get together at Michelle's house.  I took the boys to show off, but of course everyone was disappointed Jason wasn't there.  We ate a feigaoda (beans & rice) with cuxinhas and bolo (cake).  Kendall loved it all, of course!

Emma & Easter

Happy 1st birthday to Emma, here with mommy, Zjani.

A ladybug themed party wouldn't be complete without real lady bugs!  Zjani let out 2,000 of 'em!  The kids, big and small, had so much fun catching them.

Grandma McCullough made the Jackson and Jones kids an egg hunt.  What a fun surprise!

Kendall got gold fish.
