We had Sunday dinner at G & G Shields house last week. We were lucky enough to have Great Grandma Shields there too! She gives all the great grandchildren a crisp $2.00 bill for their birthday. Isaac was thrilled to get some cash for is big day.

All the kids went in the basement and came upstairs all dressed up in these hideous outfits! They had a play they wanted to share with everyone. But we couldn't stop laughing at their horrible clothes, espcially Taylor and Jeffrey! Ha ha!

Here's a bit more of the play.

It was a rainy week which is perfect  for Lizzie because she LOVES her umbrella. She carries it all over. This funny picture cracks me up! It's from a website of back haircuts from the 80's that Colton sent to me. I laughed so hard looking at these awful pictures.

Sometimes Taylor likes to pretend he's still small and sit in my lap. He is too big and bony to sit there for very long!  I can't believe how quickly he is growing up.

The kids earned a free dinner from the Spaghetti Factory for competing their reading all month at school. So we went for dinner on Thursday night. G & G Shields joined us there and it was a fun dinner with yummy food.

Friday night we went to Brett and Teresa's house for Henry's birthday party. He's is one year old and so cute! We had a yummy dinner, good treats and a fun night!

Henry was a little overwhelmed by all the kids and attention. It was fun night! We love living near cousins.

The kids all hopped in Brett's hot tub.

Saturday after the soccer games, errands etc... we headed downtown for the General Women's Conference. Girls who are 8 years old are invited to attend so I got take Emily. 

We went with Natalie, Monica, Teresa, Mary and Grandma Shields. It was beautiful on Temple square and fun to see all the women going to the Conference Center.

Mary and Emily were cute and so excited for the meeting.

Here's cute Emily!

The meeting was fabulous. So many wonderful messages from the general Primary, YW and Relief Society presidents as well as from Elder Eyring. I am so happy we got to go and listen to these inspires messages and learn from them.
