Michelle had a birthday shout hooray! She got to celebrate over at our place where Allen had hid her ice cream cake from her.
Two other girls had a birthday shortly after Michelle did. Kate and Kairi are now two! They loved all of their presents. Thanks everyone.
Kairi is in purple.
One nice Saturday we thought about going to the outdoor free skating rink but called Allen and Michelle first and low and behold they were already there so we joined them. Here is dad and Wesley. The kids skated with street shoes.
Here you can find Uncle Allen with Kairi and Aunt Michelle helping Kate.
A fun picture with tongues and legos.
My little sister Amy got married! Here is the reception once we got the decorations put up. I am pleased to say that it was faster to clean it all up then to put up. Hooray! It did turn out rather nice though.
And here is the single picture I took to commermerate my sad tale about losing all my videos off my new camera. Apparently this camera puts movie files in a separate folder so when I copied over the "stuff" from it I really only got the pictures and no movies and then I just had to decide to clear the camera before realizing that fact. Yippe. Anyway if we had the movies you would have seen some really good goofy girls singing to Hillary Duff, and yes they were really singing it.
Uncle Allen and Aunt Michelle got this little rental car. I thought it was small enough to deserve a photo. It could seat four and hey you could shift between automatic and manual. How about that?!
Oh yah Amy got married at the Oakland Temple in CA. Here is Amy and Dan Fowler coming out of the temple.
And then they kissed. Gross!
Had to put this one in here. :)
Here is Dan with his mom. I thought it was precious.
Um. Here are some people from Dan's side of the family. Let's see we have his dad, step-mom, Amy, Dan, and his mom. I hope I got that right. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Here is the same picture again but with the added bonus of a picture of the photographer who took many pictures of the happy day than I did.
Dan's side of the family

Amy looking over her shoulder. Yup.

Fancy food at the wedding including cake pops and chocolate strawberries.

The bridesmaids. Here you can find Brittany (Ducky) Sable, Megan, and Ann.
Did I spell Megan right?
Here is the ring holder and the flower girl. I think they were Dan's nephew and niece?
The cake.
Here is Amy and my mom coming up the aisle for the ring exchange ceremony after the temple ceremony.
Here is an amazing airplane view picture Chris took from his flight to Washington the week before I flew out to CA for Amy's wedding.
Here is an amazing airplane picture that I got. Yah.
Even better you guys all need to find a place where you can try out these new toilets! Really you wave your hand over the top and plastic covering the seat moves around the seat counter clockwise giving you a new clean surface to sit on. Pretty cool right?
We went to Madison's model train and railroad show again this year. We had to with out train fans. Here is Kate learning how to drive a train.
And here is Kate again with boots and a helmet. Actually I am surprise the floor around her looks so clean.
Here is what the twins did while waiting for Daddy to help move up Allen and Michelles things into their apartment.
A train!
For the girls birthday we went to a children's museum in...Rockford I think. Everyone, well mostly everyone, tried out some pully chairs.
And we did some tractor farming.
And chicken hugging. (Kairi, Kate)
Okay this one was really funny. I got the girls to sit down on opposite sides of each other doing this thing where you use a mirror to help guide you moving a "pen" around a metal sheet with a red picture on it. The object is to not go off the lines or it will beep at you. Anyway, the girls didn't know that and Kate thought she was seeing through the divider at what Kairi was doing instead of seeing her hand reflected back at her. Kairi started to figure it out and wanted to climb over.
Wesley and Dad at the water spot.
Dad holding Kairi and Kate to the right riding on a train! Wow. And Michelle and Allen are in the background.
Let's deliver some pizza!
A ticket for mom to ride the train from Mr. Wesley conductor.
This is where Kate put her birthday stickers. :)
Oh and here is a potato. How did he get in here?
Here is another good train, Percy!
At the model train show there is one place you can ride a smallish train. We got off a few shots before the camera died. Notice anyone missing?
Here is one attempt to find Kate.
Oh wait. Here she is!
Hope you all like the blog post. bye.
