OCDness.....

Jaeli gets this from me..........organizing (even though you wouldn't guess that when you see my home)....One of her new favorite things is to take all the condiments out of the fridge and put them back RIGHT where she found them. If the condiment doesn't fit where it is SUPPOSE to, she starts to throw a fit. Poor OCD child of mine. I love her so.

Crazy Crafting

I went to a really fun crafty night with a friend in my Ward. She had some great ideas and was really patient, because, let's face it.....I'm NOT crafty (THANKS SHAELYN!!!!). These flowers are made from ribbon and intense concentration...HAHA! I think they turned out fabulous!

Reunion-Ing in Island Park

We ventured up to Island park from August 13-15 for an Anderson Family Reunion. It truly is beautiful there.

Crying on the 4-Wheeler with Grandpa Zundel.
Not crying on the 4-Wheeler with mom because she's got her paci in her mouth. And no, I did NOT drive this thing. Can you imagine? SCaRY!
Sharing homemade ice cream with Grandma Zundel. Thanks Grandpa, but I don't know what she thought about the raspberries in it.
Screaming and crying again because she didn't want to be by the fire. Looks like she had a rough time, huh? :(

The Zoos

Here we are at the Hogle Zoo. This was Jaeli's second trip this summer to A Zoo. It was a long day but fun!

Silly Daddy
She was TERRIFIED of the fake elephant

Can you see the monkeys?

On the Train

She didn't want to sit on the alligator, but I had her do it anyway.

However, Jaeli's first trip to a Zoo was Logan's very own Willow Park Zoo. She loved it. Her favorite things were the monkeys, the turtles and the swans. Here are a few shots......

First time on a swing with mom!

My Little Model

I just want to post one of the MOST beautiful pictures of my daughter! I'm in love with her!!!!!

Rockin' Reception

We had a great time at my cousin's reception. Congrats again Tracey and Lincoln!

Jaeli's Way of Cooling Off

I was putting groceries away in the fridge, freezer and pantry.......I took a trip down the hall to the pantry and came back to find this. What can I say.......it was 93 degrees yesterday! This is how Jaeli decided to deal with the heat.

'Jaeli Pea's' First Time in Her Pool

Here Jae is swimming at home. She was so much crazier right before Dad turned the camera on, of course, but she was so fun to watch! PS, just ignore the white whale by the pool. It's only June 18th right? I still have to time to get a tan before Hawaii. ;)

Fun in the Sun and FINALLY a POST!

I am so sorry it's taken so long to post. For some reason I just felt anything we did wasn't exciting enough to post about....but I am posting today. Whether it's boring or not! :)

Here's a little experience the other day. I had just finished getting ready and came back out to the kitchen to discover that Jae had found the deodorizer for the litter box. She was sitting smack dab in the middle of the white powder. Fun times for all! :)

Also, today, June 18, we tried Jaeli's pool out for the first time. Can you say fish? She loved it! My favorite? When she discovered how to get out.....she went crazy crawling in and out of the pool as fast as she could.

And here's my princess after the fun. She looks tired and out of it! HAHA, gotta love that face!

'Princess Pea' is ONE!

It all started with 4 cake mixes, homemade colored icing and layers and layers of Birthday goodness!The layered cake is the 'Princess and Pea' mattress cake. It turned out so great. The green ball is a pea with a crown on it for 'Princess Pea'.....that's Jaeli's nickname.
Then came the balloons and gifts....Jae got a lot of great stuff! Thanks to everyone that came and supported her at her party!

And finally, the eating of the cake and cute family pictures.....My favorite, the green toes! She wanted her feet in her cake more than her hands. IT WAS A SPLENDID DAY! Happy Birthday on Tuesday 'Princess Pea'! We love you so much!
