Wastlund Family

Birthday Breakfast at Golden Corral She really wanted a super soft purple blanket from her older siblings New tea set from Taylor A new shirt from Aunt Katie's family A guitar from Mom and Dad A card with $6 from Grandpa and Grandma Woodstock (mom picked out this card before she died). Hinckley enjoyed the Party too! Grace's friend Cody even came by to wish her a happy Birthday! Sunday the family came to dinner to celebrate not only Grace but also a sweet 16 party for Grace's cousin Brianna 

My dad cut this comic out for me and labeled it appropriately.   My entire married life thus far has been devoted to my children (and I would want it no other way) but sometimes you just need a break!

Taylor has been waiting to go to Miss Susie for 2 yrs. now, and it is finally her turn! 

Kimball caught this picture for me.  Every single one of my kids did this when they were little. They would get out of the bath, wrap up in a towel and lay down on the bath mat.  I guess to get warm!:)

 Jaden made the big jump to 6th grade this year!  He was nervous but handled it great!    Kimball is now an 8th grader at the Middle school.  She loves it!  Grace is a 1st grader this year and is so excited to get to play on the big playground!  Kody is a 5th grader this year and loves all his friends at school! Taylor begins preschool next week, and mom spends her days as a taxi having kids in 4 different schools!

I took Jaden in for a physical and to have 3 warts frozen off his knee.  He is fit as a fiddle and the doctor told him he is very athletic (which he loved). As we were leaving the doctor teasingly said "don't forget your sucker and your princess sticker."  Jaden can joke right back and proudly displayed them. Dr. Thompson just laughed as we walked out the door.

Grandpa and I watched the babies so Katie and Steve could go see the new endowment movie at the temple last week.  I love that my kids have so many cousins their ages to play with. And am so glad that grandpa is here to help! I could not handle twins!

Our stake hosts a pioneer day breakfast every year.  The food is great, the kids enjoy the family games, and the fire truck comes to make a big splash at the end. This picture cracks me up of Breckan and Josh's little baby Jonah. We love that they have moved to St. George!

My amazing friend SuLynn took our pictures for us this year.  These are some of my faves!
