This last weekend Jon was working hard on our rental properties, so the kids and I took another trip to Salt Lake for Mindy's baby shower and Camryn & Taylor's baptisms. The kids were so excited to be able to spend another weekend filled with cousins!
Friday morning we went to Ella's school for the Kindergarten Nursery Rhyme Festival! All the kindergarteners were given a nursery rhyme to learn and then they dressed the part and recited the rhyme when someone tapped them on the shoulder. They had backdrops for all the different nursery rhymes and the kids looked like they enjoyed sharing what they had memorized! Ella was Jill from "Jack and Jill" and she did a fabulous job!
Friday night we had Mindy's baby shower! It was so fun to see my cousins and Aunts (that I haven't seen in years), to see Rebecca's twin girls (they were so cute) and meet some of Mindy's family! Julianne and Morag did a great job on the deserts, mini bundt cakes and swiggs sugar cookies (my new favorite)!
Saturday morning we headed to Camryn's baptism and then we headed over to Taylor's Baptism. Both girls looked so beautiful in their dresses and it got Aubrey thinking about what she wants for her baptism dress! After Taylor's baptism we went back to the club house and had a luncheon with family! Julianne and Andy did a great job on the food (bbq chicken sandwiches, two pasta salads, and lots of yummy cookies)! After the luncheon we were all a little tired and head back to Julianne's, but the kids didn't take a nap like I thought they would! They played, while Julianne and I ran a few errands! Jason came by to hang out and the kids were starving and begged Uncle Jason to make macaroni and cheese! The kids loved the homemade macaroni and cheese and talked and giggled the whole time he was cooking it and while they were eating it! Ella was the silliest, I think it may have been from lack of sleep!
Sunday morning the kids all slept in a bit and then we hit the road to head home! The kids were disappointed that we had to head home, but insisted that their cousins should come to our house next week! I love that our kids are good friends with their cousins and they all get along (for the most part)!
