From curlers to fairy

This was Marlee's first time with curlers in her hair. She actually kept majority of them in. I was hoping it would work so she could have curly hair to go with her little fairy costume. I had fun making her costume. What a fun Halloween this year!

Marlee Turned One!

I can't believe Marlee is One year old! Time sure does fly! Well, we had an eventful Birthday Week. My sister's and their families came in town from Utah, we celebrated with family and friends, and we enjoyed watching Marlee start to walk on her birthday. What a joy little ones bring into our lives. Here are some posts/pictures of the eventful week of Marlee's First Birthday. Thanks to everyone who made it so much fun and to the generous gifts.

Birthday pictures

The first picture is when Marlee woke up on her First Birthday! I took her to PETCO because she loves dogs. We looked at the animals there, and then I took her to Jamba juice. After that, we met up with the Nicole, Shawn, Zach and Brayden and went Birthday shopping. We hung out at my mom's and Nat and Bromley were there. Then when we got home, Bobbi and Mack came over and to top it off, Lisa and Sydney came over too! This was probably her favorite birthday :) because she got to see almost all of her favorite people!

Marlee eating her first birthday cake(cupcake)

YUMMY!!!( I had cupcake in my mouth when they took this picture!)

Schnepf Farms

We celebrated Marlee's birthday at Schnepf farm and had a lot of fun with family and friends. We played on the playground, went to the petting zoo, rode some rides, and roasted marshmallows at a fire pit. Let's just say that Marlee slept so well that night because she was worn out!
