Making Pies

This year for Father's Day I made Joe a banana cream pie. This year I also had my helper. She is now tall enough that she can reach the counter top when she stands on my little kitchen stool. She loves to watch everything that goes on. Well, while i was rolling out the dough she decided to carefully take some from the counter. I love the pictures of her being caught in the act!!

First Birthday Celebration!

Lindsay had her first birthday on June 25. For her birthday we had a few friends and family come to our home. She was able to celebrate with Great Grandma Kier, Grandma Brown, Aunt Katie, Aunt Staci and Uncle Jason, and Jackson, and our friends Mike and Marcia Tarver, along with their girls. She had a great time playing with everyone and being the center of attention. Below are a few pics of her party. ( The party was the night before her actual B-day. Which turned out to be really good because she got sick the next day:( )

This is the Lady Bug cake that I made for her

Lindsay was very fascinated with the links that grandma Brown gave her.

She loves all of the neat things that she was given for her birthday. We want to thank everyone for their nice gifts and for celebrating with us.
(I have a picture of her with the cake but the blog isn't' letting me upload it. So, these are what we get. :)

Here comes trouble!

The other day I found Lindsay taking all of the toilet paper off of the roll. She then proceeded to play with it and spread the paper all over the bathroom and hallway. The hardest part was she did it with a smile!

Lindsay's First Ponytail

I was so excited when I was first able to put her hair into a ponytail! Now she can where bows!!!!

Easter

We had a wonderful Easter!

Saturday we went to Jason and Staci's to celebrate Jackson's First birthday and Easter. We had a wonderful time. It was great to see everyone and to have a little fun competition during the egg hunt! Thank you again Staci, it was Great!! Sunday was Stake Conference, which was really good. We enjoyed listening to all the talks and especially enjoyed Pres. Monson's words. After Conference we went to Grandma Keir's house. Lindsay had fun playing with her Easter eggs. ( She found them in the middle of the floor) We were also able to take a four generation picture. It sure doesn't seem like four generations! We also have so much Fun! Everyone helped cook their own special items, and then finally it was time for supper. This year the sister Missionaries were able to join us. It was a great treat to be able to have their spirit there. We all had a good time eating and chatting! Here are some pictures from the weekend! (Sorry I dont' have any from the party:( )
