I am not a crafty person, but at our super saturday on May 17th I made these. I always try to pick the most simple items. All I had to do was sand, paint, sand the edges again, put on the wording and spray. I think they came out pretty well. They go well in our bedroom. 

These beautiful lilies are in full bloom in my front yard. They really are Terri's and she plans on taking a couple of the bulbs to plant in her new yard.



Nathan's Friend Birthday Party

Nathan had his friend birthday party on Sat. May 17th. He wanted a Rescue Bot Party, which is just transformers for little kids! My friend from church made this awesome Rescue Bot cake.

 She added Bumble Bee and Optimus Prime to make them look like they were breaking out of the cake.
 We borrowed a small bounce house from Allan's friend from work. The kids all loved it!!
Terri did an awesome job planning the party. They played lots of fun games and everyone had a blast!!!! 






 The Pinata was a huge hit!




 Nathan's friends spoiled him with his presents.
 The birthday boy!  "5"



 The bottom layer was what my friend called a pinata cake. You cut a slice and the candy fell out. Everyone loved it!
 After Brady got up from his nap he enjoyed the bounce house with Papa!

Ten on Tuesday part 3

The wedding was on Tuesday, May 6th. Which was also our 36th wedding anniversary. I took the opportunity to practice with my camera. Here are some of the shots I got.














These last two shots I used just natural light. I think they came out pretty good.

Ten on Tuesday


We traveled to Utah last weekend for our niece's wedding in Salt Lake City. We stayed with Jeremy and Cameo in Eagle Mountain. On Saturday we attended the Thanksgiving Point Tulip Festival. I took a lot of pictures as always so there is an overload of them here. If you want to see them all go to my shutterfly share site at bellfamilyfun2.shutterfly.com
