21 and Partying Hard!


Current Party:

Birthday Princess!!! (and todd.)

My wonderful, crafty, intelligent sister turns one year older today! She has always been such a wonderful older sister: so sweet and kind and a wonderful example in all things that matter! She is such a dear, and I'm glad that she gets a whole day of celebrating her increasingly LONG life! :) Happy Birthday sweet Toni!  


Recent Party:

Last week I got to plan and run a party for a group of students in a special education class in an elementary school! It was a Valentine's Day party so we tried to do a bunch of Valetine's-y Day things.   It went super well I believe, so I'll fill you in with pictures!

This is my group! So much fun!

Kelsea and I making the goodies!

Of course we played pin the heart on Cupid!

Sweet Caitlin!

The Cupid!

We then played a bunch of games with feathers...
not my favorite.

Then we learned ASL for the song 'The More We Get Together'

I learned so much! 

My favorite game -- the cake-walk!
We tried to liven it up with our dancing!
The dancing was such a hit that we played "Freeze Dance,"
which was a blast!


The kids were so energetic!

And so affectionate!

And so cute!
 The last part of the party was my baby -- the pizza!  I had to find the best price, pay for it with BYU's credit card, and accept the delivery at the school. The pizza guy got lost so we had a minor pizza crisis, which would have been disastrous since the whole morning the kids were asking for the pizza! After I explained where we were, and finally gave it to the kids -- they loved it! The camera's battery died by that time, but when we got our thank you notes from the kids that's what they mentioned, so I believe my part of the party was a success!

Other recent parties in my life:

Not exactly current, but still relevant. 

This sweet girl came up for President's Day weekend, and although I'm not the most exciting person in the world she put up with my boring Provo life-style and I super enjoyed her coming up!

Other future parties in my life:

Steve Young with Todd
My awesome little brother got into BYU and will be joining Steve and I down here at the 'Y!'
Dawn, Ty, and I are beyond excited to have another sibling in Happy Valley. My apologies to the Kelley's and my parents for stealing this stud! 

And just for kicks:
I've never seen her happier. 
Steve Young and his favorite Cannon Center Hostess.
