Polk a dots

Jaden and Mckay love the book "PJ Funny Bunny" about a brother who teases his sister 24/7. One part of the book PJ paints his sisters face with polk a dots and my kids think it is hilarious (real hilarious). Here is evidence that kids mimic what they read and see on T.V. :)

Happy Birthday Michelle

Happy Birthday Michelle! Here is a little Birthday shout out and just some of the reasons I think Michelle is the best.

* Most devoted and fun mom who would do anything for her kids.

* Most creative person I know.

*Funnest person to take a trip with.

- Womens conference

- Price is Right........ Go hot pink shirts "We love our Arizona Barker Beauties".

- Jay Leno (we were totally on tv........ we are so famous)

- Magic Mountain

- Tooting in the gas station. :)

- Disneyland with our families right after we had our babies.

* Best Bachelor watching Buddy. GO TRITA AND RYAN!

* President of the Jack Bower "24" club.

* Best hostess, party planning girl, and cake maker I know.

* A very devoted and loyal friend. I always knew I could call or go over to Michelles house at any time of the day or night,( literally), 1:00, 2:00, 3:00 am, you name it, she would be there with her big smile ready to give me advice, support, or tell me my latest craft or invention was cute.

* Michelle is one of the most patient people I know.

* Always looks gorgeous.

* Best bunko buddy. One time she sat in the carport with me for two hours trying to break open some coconuts just so we could have matching coconut bras for Hawaiian bunko night.

* Best neighboor and friend in the world, who I am determined to live next to again some day!

Love you Michelle, Have an awesome day!!!

Weekend in Flagstaff

Sisters are friends who know everything about you but love you anyway.

Me, Roxcy, Juliette, Jaden, Malloy, Nixie, and Mckay. We had so much fun visiting cousins in Flagstaff. Juliette had quite the itinerary ready for us when we arrived. I love my sis and was sad to say goodbye. I know she is in Flagstaff, but I feel like she has moved to Timbucktu! Thanks for such a fun filled weekend. You are the best.

Popcorn party!

I was quite the proud aunt to witness my niece Nixie laughing her head off and saying her first word "popcorn"! What a cutie.

The reading corner

It's amazing that a boy so active can sit still and be perfectly content looking at books. I love it.
