The LAST FIRST day of school in our house

Wednesday, August 14, 2024

Kit Kat's last first day of school was today.  I cannot believe that my baby is a senior!  The twins, Azzlyn and Caelyn spent the night so they could all go together.  About a block just before they made it to the school, she got rear ended!  What a memorable first day!  I had her call the police to come and do a report.  Thankfully no one was injured and there was only minor damage done to the car.  They were late - and made it for a memorable last!

 

Salem Days & Deer Creek

Our friends from Moscow, Vladimir & Anna Astashov and their kids Daniel, Ivan and Masha have been here visiting on holiday and staying with us for the last 3 weeks. We've had so much fun having them!  They were able to celebrate Salem Days with us.  We all went to the Salem Days parade, then had lunch at Grandma Julie's house. Later that afternoon, we took ours and their kids, along with Molly's friends Azzlyn & Caelyn out boating that evening while they met friends in Salt Lake and went to the temple.  Everyone had so much fun!   We finished the night by watching the Salem Days fireworks. 

Happy 1st Birthday to Jace! 🎈

Tonight we got to celebrate this little guys very first birthday! Jens and Alexandra gave me full reins to do his party and I was THRILLED to do it! 

He loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse so I thought that would be a perfect theme.

I bought him the cutest little Mickey Mouse outfit to wear and had so much fun making his ONE banner for his high chair and the Mickey centerpiece.  I also loved making the Rice Krispies, food and setting the table scape. 

I paid my cute little 17-year-old neighbor girl to make the iced cookies. She is so talented! Alexandra's mom made his cake and cupcakes, which turned out adorable!

It was a perfect party for the most perfect ONE year old!
