Paige is Three!!!

My Paigey turned three. She is such a big girl. Just ask her! We started out the festivities on Friday when we went to Salt Lake and Aunt Christy took her to Build a Bear and she got to make her own teddy bear.

Saturday Grandpa and Grandma Frederickson came down to celebrate her biggness. We had a really good time with them.

On Monday we had her actual birthday and yet another party. She had been talking for weeks about how wonderful her princess party was going to be. She had it all planned out and I wasn't even aware that we were having a princess party. Since she went to the work to plan it, I decided I better try to carry out her plans.

We had Grandpa and Grandma Stevens, Scott, Becky, Aubree and Sydney, Abby and Rachel and our family here for the party. We started by going sledding at Syracuse High School. I actually think Paige had about the most fun. She just kept going down the hill the trudging back up to do it again. We all had a great time sledding. Brock even had fun going down with Cody and I.

After sledding we went back to our house and all the little girls dressed up as princesses. Ty couldn't be left out so he put on his spiderman costume.


Cody rigged up a pinata. We thought it would break really fast, but it just couldn't be broken. All the kids had about 3 chances to hit the thing. Grandma even gave it a wack. Finally it just fell off the rope and it was all out war for the candy.


We unwrapped presents and had dinner with cake and ice cream a little later.


It was a long party, but we are so glad to have our Paige. She is even starting to go on the potty.

We love our Paige so much. She brings such joy into our lives. She is the cuddliest little girl in the world. She is so tender-hearted and always needs to know we love her. We are so glad to have Paige in our lives.

Hardware Ranch

A few weeks ago we went to Hardware Ranch in Hyrum to see the elk. We had a great time seeing all the elk. The kids loved it. Later we drove around Logan a bit and drove by our old house. I can't believe we ever fit in that small house.

That afternoon and evening we went to Michael and Stacie's house just to hang out. It was a great way to spend a Saturday!



Family Pictures

Becky did our family pictures again this year. I am really happy with them. I have never actually taken my kids to a professional photographer, but when I can get pictures like this why should I? Ages of everyone: Ty - 4 1/2, Paige - almost 3, Brock - 18 months
