Happy Birthday Jenny

This year it is all about the CUPCAKE!!! Jenny wanted a dog so bad she was willing to give up a birthday party with friends to get her dog.

Once a week the kids in the neighborhood have been getting together for games, this time it landed on Jenny's birthday...So, we made it a party!

Jenny is so happy to have her dog!

Payton and Kathleen found a present for Jenny. They even wrapped it for her...

What a surprise! Luckily, Jenny has quick reflexes and she saved her new frog before the cat got him!

They found him a home next to the pond in the backyard where he will have a happy life eating mosquitoes.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JENNY! WE LOVE YOU!!!

Home from Girl's Camp

When I pulled into the driveway after coming home from Girl's Camp this is what I saw...made me smile!

They had decorated the house with streamers!

Set the table for a party!

And Cody made a cake!

What a wonderful way to end a great week. I so enjoyed being with the young women...especially the night Jenny got to come up and join us...but, oh am I glad to be back home with my family! I love these people!!!!!

Welcome Cupcake!

Jenny got a Shih Tzu puppy for her birthday! She has been wanting a puppy for such a long time and is really ready for this new responsibility; we could not wait any longer. She named her new puppy Cupcake. She will be a very loved, very happy little doggie!

Eagle Fun Days

We have enjoyed the Eagle Fun Days Parade every year since we moved here. It is just a small town thing and I love it! This year Cody-who is the biggest fan of the water fight-was on his way home from EFY and it was not the same without him here. We did our best to represent the Lundberg Family. We grabbed our water guns and jumped on our bikes to meet our friends on State Street. It was cloudy and we had some rain, but that's o.k., we were there to get wet anyway.

Simple Pleasures

There is nothing quite as fun as playing in the sprinklers with friends.

Murphy Outpost Days

We decided to check out the big town of Murphy and see what "Outpost Days" was all about. The kids learned how to grind corn into cornmeal. Pretty cool little gadgets- they thought this was fun.

Thar's gold in them thar hills! Gold panning got all of our attention, we all found some gold and we even found a few small garnets!

These were so fun to see up close! What a hassel these horns were, you should have seen them try to get their heads down to the water for a drink.

Emily cools off with a snow cone!

Cody texting????

This booth showed how saddles were made.

Cute little calf!

This turned out to be a fun trip. We learned lots of new things...especially that Emily is a great little bargain shopper. She was making deals with the vendors like a champ.

Awards!

Jenny got a Music Award for her amazing work on the recorder. She got her black belt in Recorder Karate -watch out! She can even play it with her nose... a little weird but we are proud anyway.

Emily got Citizen of the Year for her class! This award is for being an all around good student. Way to go Emily!

Just Wanna Have Fun

Some crazy things go on at the Elementary School at the end of the year.
Jenny's class decided to have a costume party- she is Chad Vader...that would be Darth Vader's brother in case you were wondering.
Emily's class is having crazy hair day-she lookes like a chararcter from a Dr. Seuss book.

How fun to be a kid...and how fun to be their Mom!
