Brindley turned the big 3 on October 13th. I decided to keep it just family this year because our families are so big and just keep getting bigger. I still had Brin and the cousins dress up in their costumes of course. Brin was Tinkerbell, she is really into her right now.
The cake of course had to be a Tinkerbell one. Cindy had this amazing cake book with a TON of great ideas. Brindley chose this one. It looked really hard but it really was pretty easy. It actually was alot of fun. My dad and Cindy came down the day before the party to help me out with the girls and give me a hand with the cake. It was a great day we went to lunch and hung out!! Thanks again Dad and Cin:)
The party was a great success Brindley had a ton of fun with her presents and playing with the family.
Brindley we LOVE you to death!! Your such a joy to us and also a great help with your sister! Love you sweetie:)
Fun times at Kangeroo ZOO:)
Following Brindleys birthday she wanted to go the zoo so we went and had a great time like always. I love this place, its never busy in the morning so brin can just run all over and have a blast!!!
We have been going here for about a year and a half. When we would go Brindley wanted me to climb up every slide with her which was a great workout for me. Now she almost doesnt even want me there at all. She is SO big and she knows it:)

This is our 3rd year carving pumpkins with my family. We have a blast everytime:)
Jessica works at Great Harvest and they made these way cute pumpkin bread bowls and green lady fingers. My mom made yummy chicken cheese soup to go with them it was the best ever!! We missed Cody and Tom this year they both had to work, but we still had fun. Thanks guys for such a fun tradition:) Love ya all!!!
For Halloween we made the rounds to all the grandparents. We started out at my dads for his awesome spagetti! SERIOUSLY he makes the best! He doesnt use a recipe he just puts a bunch of stuff in it and it turns out almost better everytime. Whenever we would go to our dads for the weekend its what he made almost all the time. I forgot my camera at home so their aren't any pics (I know I know). Then we stopped at my moms where we went to a few houses. We went to the Maxanns (BIG MISTAKE) the guy that lives there has dressed up as something ever since I was little, but I thought that he would have givin it up by now..... NOPE! He flew the door open and screamed about as loud as he could Brindley clings to grandmas leg for dear life. I felt horriable! After that she was done! Its all she talked about the rest of the night and the next day, Poor thing:(
Finally we made it to the last stop at Toms parents. We were all pretty tired so we didn't stay very long just long enough to chat for a mintue and eat some healthy lady fingers that Maryann made with carrots! It was a great night with the Family!!
Early in the summer Tom and I decided to go up to the Cabin for 4 days. It was so much fun. We love going to the cabin for many reasons...
1. FREE
2. 10 mins away
3. RELAXING
4. Cozy
5. A break!!!!
Our first night we were tired from getting everything settled so we watched a movie and went to bed. The next day my mom, jess and dooper came up for dinner. It was really fun my family had never been there before. We talked, laughed and roasted marshmellows.
Another one of the days we went for a long pretty drive to heber. Spent the day at the park, driving around, and eating at Grannys! We love this place, they have the BEST shakes.
Other than that we just hung out playing games and enjoying being together, it doens't happen too much since tom is still working 60 plus hrs a week.
Enjoying her yummy watermelon!!
Brindley looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much like Tom in this picture!!
Londyn was about 3 months old! She had just started sitting up! Such a big girl! Ooh I love these girls!
Tom and Brin had gne on a walk while Londyn and I were taking a nap. I had woke up and they were gone so I went outside to swing on the swing and I hear this sweet little voice say mommy I have something for you..... She had picked some flowers for me. She is so thoughtful.
Now im not finished with this but I want to post what I have so far. So there will be part 2 this week sometime:)

Her cake turned out SO cute. I would love to learn how to make those kind of cakes too. Glad you have had a good year.

You're like me trying to make up for months of not posting. Can't believe summer has come and gone. I'm glad you had fun!
Oh ya, and you should start a cake business on the side. Brindley's cake was freaking awesome.
