Meeting Baby Faye

The kids finally got to meet their new cousin, Faye Marie.  They LOVE her (and so do I!)!  

Notice Dakota's beautiful forehead.  Poor girl!

Cooper LOVES to hold the baby!

Taylor's 7th B-Day Party

*Disclaimer...some photos are out of focus.  Dakota got a hold of my camera and changed all the settings, I am still trying to get it back to normal.
**Something crazy happened when I uploaded the pics, some are in order, some are not, and others didn't show up.  But you get the general idea with what you've got.  

Since we have moved to my parent's house, Taylor has made some great friends.  One lives next door and the others live across the street and are in our ward.  Taylor had her 7th birthday on October 13th and she wanted to have a little party.  Actually, she wanted to have a "small girlie-girl party."  So she invited her newest buddies.  They had their nails painted, glittered, and stickered.  They ate pizza, opened presents, got fancy hair-do's, watched 'Barbie, A Fashion Fairy Tale', had cake and ice cream, and had a great time!  It is amazing the amount of sound that 6 people between the ages of 2 and 7 can create!  It was so fun!  Taylor was SO happy and really enjoyed her special day. 

 Here they are eating pizza

Opening presents

Finley was our only casualty, someone got excited (uh, hem Taylor) and threw a toy in the air.  It landed on Finley's forehead.  Oops!

Dakota and one of her signature ballet moves.

A Harry Potter calendar...note the excitement.

 

 and more excitement.

Fancy hair-do's

Cake!

Cooper disappeared and I found him at the table finishing Taylor's cake!

Birthday decorations made on our favorite toy, the Cricut.

Everyone was supposed to be dancing, but Cooper was the one with all the moves!
