June = BIRTHDAYS!!

Well I need to do some serious updating....SO as stated before, my sister Jamie and her family came down to California. On Wednesday, July 17th Dylan (our nephew) turned 4 years old. This year, we will have 3 nephews turning 4 years old! We went to Chuck E Cheese and we had so much fun. I love seeing Keven at these places because he pretty much has just as much fun (if not more fun) playing all the games! :) We are so glad we got to be with you on your birthday Dylan! We love you! Here's Aiden (left) and Dylan (right). They are 9 days apart.
Chuck E Cheese came out and greeted the kids. They loved him! It brought me and my siblings back to our birthday parties at chuck e cheese! Remember the "band" on stage? On Thursday, June 18th...My mom set up a "girls night out!" It was so much fun! My mom and sisters and neice went to the Candleight pavilion and watched the play, "High School Musical." It was SOOO good! I've never seen High School Musical before...it was just so cute and I loved the music! Jordyn loves HSM, so it was cute to see her singing all the songs and knowing the different scenes. Here's Jordyn with the main stars in HSM.
Yesterday, June 27th was my sister, Jamie's birthday. She is so special to me. She is such a great big sister and I look up to her in so many ways. She is such an awesome Mother of 4 and really is a strong woman. She goes to school full time, teaches dance, a mother of 4, in the relief society and so on. I hope you had a great birthday Jamie! We love you! Today, June 28th is my other sister Jenn's birthday. The month of June is seriously crazy with birthdays! I always thought that it was so cool that my sisters were exactly 2 years and 1 day apart. Jenn is also very special to me. I feel very blessed of how close I am with both of my sisters. I was able to work with Jenn for sometime before she had Jocelynn and it was so nice to be able to share experiences with each other. Everyone at work got us confused because they thought I was her and she was me. They still do! :) Jennifer is a wonderful mother and wife. We love you so much Jenn and hope you had an awesome birthday!

For Jenn's birthday, James (her husband) planned a special day for Jenn yesterday. He asked me a week before if Keven and I could watch Jocelynn on Saturday. Of course, we jump on any chance we have to watch the kids! So we went down Friday night and spent the night. James had school and then went to Seattle for work Saturday night, so he wanted Jenn to have a day to herself to relax. He got her a pass to Glen Ivy Spa. She left at 9am and came back at 4pm. I know she had such a nice day and we were so lucky to spend it with Jocelynn. She is really getting to be a funny little girl! You can tell now that when you talk to her, she actually understands what you are saying. It's pretty funny. She is the most random person ever. The morning she woke up before Jenn left and she came to me and gave me a hug. Then she started talking about hats, then cars, then macaroni and cheese and then she said the ABC's and started laughing. ha! She is so sweet and we just love her to pieces! I always try to get her to talk so I asked her who I was and she said, "MY Jess!" I love that! Then she always says that she wants to hold me! After her nap, we got ready to go to the pool. She loves her sunglasses and she loves hats. I had to take a picture with her new floaties. She's so funny! She's all oiled up from the suntan lotion! We had so much fun at the pool!

Jocelynn is starting to get the concept that you go "potty" in the toilet. Actually she always says "potty" so we always run her to the bathroom. The morning before Jenn left, she went potty so she got a sticker! Everytime she gets a sticker and Jenn wants to put it on her shirt, she takes it, lifts up her shirt and puts it on her belly button! Very random! :)
