A Fun Day w/ G-ma...

G-ma Hansen wanted to go & hang out w/ us. She wanted us to meet her at the library to get some books. Every summer I take the kids to the library so they can check out some books. I haven't done that at all this summer. I'm so glad Jeanne reminded me about the library. Tayden & Cutler were so excited to go & get some books. After, G-ma took us to lunch at Judd's Store. The kids love the breadsticks & the candy. I guess that wasn't enough for them to eat that G-ma bought them some ice cream, too. They were loving it..

We went to the water park on Main St. The kids love going there & playing in the water. Ryker wanted to explore & stay away from us. He kept sitting w/ other kids & playing. We hung in the sun all day. It was such a hot day I was hoping the kids would get tired. I don't think kids can get tired. I do love watching how much fun they can have playing in the water. Thank You, Jeanne(G-ma) we had alot of fun hanging out w/ you.

Tayden's Surprise to Us..

Tayden went over to G-ma Hansen's house to have a sleep over. She was so excited cause she was going to learn how to cook some things from her cook book. Tayden wanted to make her family dinner, so G-ma took her to the grocery store to get some items to make. We got a phone call telling us to be to G-ma's house at 5:00 on Saturday for a surprise. Tayden's surprise was she made us this dinner all by herself. She decorated the table so cute. She colored place settings w/ our names letting us know where to sit. The dinner was so good, she did such a great job. We sure do love her. She is such a sweetheart to us. She is always wanting to do things for us.

Tayden's Autograph Party..

We got to the college & there were a couple of posters w/ Passage to Zarahemla pictures & it sayin that Tayden was autograph signing w/ the DVD's. We got to the bookstore & their were some people waiting for Tayden's autograph! Tayden was so excited & she sat at the table & started signing w/ Cutler standing on the side of her. We told people that Cutler was her bodyguard. I thought we would just have family & friends come to the bookstore but we had people I didn't know come. We had the parents & my happy brother Jordan & her cousin Kenadee. My dad did such a cute job putting this together. He had cookies on the side & he had the T.V. w/ Tayden on it. He ordered 27 DVD's & he sold out of the movie, so Tayden did alot of signing. This was a fun experience for Tayden. Thank You Dad! You are such a sweet G-pa..

Our Little Movie Star...

Tayden when she was in kindergarten was picked to play in the movie "Passage to Zarahemla". She was so excited to play as Kerra McConnell the main actress as a child in some childhood memories. The movie came to theaters in October & we all went to the movies. When the movie was over we all stood up & cheered. We walked out & a girl came up to Tayden & said she was visiting her G-ma & had just finished reading the book. When she found out it was coming to a movie, she was so excited to come & see it. She turned to Tayden & told her the bonus is she gets to meet Tayden who played Kerra as a child. She asked Tayden for her autograph. A few others around heard & asked for her autograph. After that she told me" Mom this was the best day". The movie came out on DVD last tuesday & her G-pa Judd called her & asked her if she wanted to come to the Dixie College Bookstore. He told her they will be selling the movie & wanted her to come on Wed 11th from 1-3:00 p.m. to give her autograph on the movies that were being sold. She thinks this will be so fun, she is so excited. It is a good PG-13 movie but it has a theatrical version & less intense family version. So, if you want to buy the movie go & get it at the college & have Tayden sign it. She would love that. Check out the movie www.passagetozarahemla.com..

Spending day in New Harmony..

We went & visited G-pa & Nana Hansen. The kids were so excited to go & get to feed the horses. They have 5 dogs. They have 3 that live in the house & Ryker was so excited, we had never heard the sounds that were coming out of his mouth. He was breathing so hard at the dogs. He just kept following each one everywhere in the house. Ryker was so tired an hour later from being so excited. It was fun going up to New Harmony visiting G-pa & Nana.
