So your "break from blogging" was for 4 days? Not bad... for you, I guess. We have some engagement photos in front of that window and the one we used on our announcements are on the stairs just around the corner. Congrats, Pat on your 300!
Glad Mara had fun! I wish I had heard about it, Livvy would have loved it too! The Wii party sounded like fun, I think it is great that you do something special each year for your Dad. Who was it that got sealed?
Nothing is more sad than when the little kids get hurt! Poor baby!c

Life doesn't stop when you want a break. I think that I went a little overboard in saying I was going to stop blogging for a bit, because I don't like getting behind in posting (it bothers me when I do). So I have found other ways to 'fix' what I wanted to fix. And so I'm back after a short but eventful weekend. In my file from last week, another picture of Mara asleep in the middle of the day.[Image] On Tuesday me, Mara and my mom went to the cemetery and put some pinwheels on my dad's grave.[Image] Mara placed her toys this way and told me to take a picture, so I did! [Image] On Friday Mara & I went to The Fairy Tea Party at the Provo Library with Liza & Addi, and Liza's sister and daughter. It was held in the ballroom where I had my wedding reception so it was extra fun to be there!! The Fairy King[Image]I borrowed a Tinker Bell costume from Susan (Thanks again!!) and Mara was in heaven. We each got a crown and a wand too!! [Image][Image] I took a pic of Mara in the window sill, they have such great windows in this place. [Image] There were ballerina's that performed... [Image] and The Fairy King and Princesses. [Image] Mara was in her element!! She was able to dance around, play, and just pretend the whole time!! [Image] Me & My Fairy Princess [Image] One of my favorite wedding pictures is in front of this window, so I had to get a few with Mara. [Image][Image] Saturday I was able to go to the Salt Lake Temple, a friend of mine had her daughter sealed to her and her husband. It was great to be able to be there. My mom was nice enough to watch my kids so I could go. But this is what I came home to: [Image] The kids had been running around while she had the cutting board out, and Mara ran right into it! Mom put a butterfly bandage on it with a band aid. Mara is doing great, but still talks about her 'owie and blood'! Her eyelid is a little purple, but not as bad as it could be. [Image] Saturday night we had my whole family over for a 'celebration night' in honor of Dad. We try to be together around his birth and death day. JD brought his Wii over and we had the 2 going and we bowled, played tennis and a little golf. Pat was the big winner of the night and finally got his perfect score on bowling!! [Image]Sunday night when Grandma Joan came over she had the new Bathing Suit Barbie for all us girls. Mattel priced it at $3.oo for the 50th Anniversary of Barbie, because that was the original price of Barbie in 1959!! [Image] We had to do a little photo shoot with Mara's doll! [Image]I love Picasa and the ability of making collages! So fun!!
