October has been crazy!- Week 1

October has been jam packed with one exciting thing after another. The first week in October we celebrated our "Grandmothers" 60th birthday. Susan is such an amazing mother and grandmother. She does so much for all of her 9 children and 15 grandchildren.We wanted to do something extra special for the big day. We planned a surprise weekend get-away at an amazing house by bear lake.

Here is the lovely lady with just a handful of her grandkids





At the house there was a pool table...
Slides for the kids in between each floor...
A play house..
A basketball court...
(One night after the kids were in bed we played a huge game of PIG. Susan was an amazing shooter! She was one of the last people to get out! Way to go Susan!)




 A trampoline...

A theater room where we had a karaoke party.
Adaliah sang the raindrops and gumdrops song.  My personal favorite performance of the night was my 9 year old nephew singing Lady Ga Ga- Poker Face. Karaoke doesn't get much better then that. 




 
We listened to Conference while the kids colored and played.
The entire weekend was perfect. It was so fun to have all of the siblings and cousins together.  Most of all it was so fun to spend quality time with the woman that made all of this possible- Susan. We are so lucky to have her in our life!

 
Here is my favorite picture of the weekend. I love Zizzy's slobbery smile in the background.

Happy 60th Susan!
