We love you Sunny Bunny!
You are the most independent girl I have ever met! You know what you want and what you don't want and you let it be known!
*You love to dance and sing
*You love to dress up in girly girl outfits and jewlry
*You & Ellie are the most gorgeous girls I have ever seen!
*You have the most beautiful blue eyes!
*You love to swim, play with your brother, jump on the tramp, play with your best friend Kayci, and eat your "B" {her blanky}
*You don't like it when I do your hair, when someone bosses you around, or when we make you do something you don't like!
*You are a total daddy's girl!
*You love the color Pink {pretty obvious by your room!}
*We are so glad that you are in our family!

Happy Birthday Sunny!

Today is Sunny's 3rd Birthday! She started out the day by getting some twin dolls, a game, a barbie movie, and a new BIKE! She is excited to learn how to ride it! I made strawberry french toast for her, and then we were off to Sunny and Riley's 1st swimming lesson of the season! That was perfect for Sunny's birthday because she wanted to swim anyway for her birthday!

Sunny is wearing a cute dress made by her Grandma Fackrell! It is adorable and she just loves to wear it so she can twirl in it! We had a family party on Sunday at my parents cabin a little early to celebrate Sunny's birthday. Regan's mom and Bob were able to come up as well and we all had a lot of fun together. Sunny of course just loved dressing up in her presents! She is the ultimate girly girl! I decorated Sunny's bike to have some more girly girl elements on it as well! {Do you like her bed head crazy hair?}

We went on a teddy bear picnic for lunch {The kids brought their bears with us} and Regan will get home early to do some fun activities with Sunny this afternoon!

Happy Birthday little Sunny Bunny!

Preschool Graduation

Riley graduated from Preschool last week! He had a great year with Ms. Carrie and learned a lot! He is so excited and ready for Kindergarten to start! His graduation was full of cute songs and poems and Riley did a great job!

Best Friends

We are so lucky to live across the street from some great friends for Riley and Sunny! Jaxson is Riley's best friend, and Kayci is Sunny's best friend! Riley and Sunny want to call them everyday and play with them. The best thing about my kids being best friends with these kids is that they are good examples and good kids! You know how you just don't want your kids to play with some kids because they are not good examples to your kids? Well, Jaxson and Kayci are perfect for my kids and I am so grateful that they have good best friends!

{One day, Riley and Jaxson wanted to wear baseball helmets, be bug-kateers, and they found 12 bugs with Riley's bug-vac and put them in my jam jars on the kitchen table!}

Memorial Day

We were able to go up to Brigham City with my family to see my Papa's grave on Friday. It was a beautiful evening and great to just look at his grave and think about what a great man he was. He just past away in December, so his memory is still very fresh on our minds. Especially my little Riley...he has talked about Papa so much lately; asking me questions about heaven, and when we will see our Papa again. Even though he was not feeling well, and even had a heart attack on the night of my sisters wedding, he was still himself at the wedding-talking to everyone! He was notorious for talking to anyone he didn't know. Sometimes I think that is why I liked Regan immediatly when I met him; because he is just like Papa!

Anyway, we went to our family favorite place afterwards; Maddox! It is the most delicious place to eat ever! It was a fun evening with my family!

On Memorial Day, we went to the Bluffdale Cemetary to see Grandpa Anderson. He passed away 2 years after I got married, and I still remember the sadness I felt when Regan told me after I had taught a violin lesson that he had passed away. If I could follow anyone's example, it would be his! What a neat man! I only wish that Riley would have known him-that is who he is named after. {Riley Reed}
