Annie's Birthday

My {SIL} Annie's BiRThdaY was yesterday so we had a little party for her. Her girls were very eager to help blow out the candles. We had so much fun, after dinner we used Uncle Lindsay's balloon launcher and terrorized the neighbors.

Precious Avery slept through the whole thing. She's tiny, 2weeks old and only 6lbs.

Hogel Zoo

My sister and I took Laralee and my two nieces to Hogel Zoo today. It was the perfect day, wonderful weather and not too crowded. They loved it, especially Laralee. She was amazed at each animal and voiced her enthusiasm. Taylor loved holding her hand and walking around with her too. The girls all crashed on the way home (Kristine and I probably could have too).

We are having so much fun in Utah with my family. We have birthday parties and a trip to St. George coming up that I'll post pictures of. The only part about our trip that we don't like is missing Daddy. Laralee wakes up every morning and asks for him so we try to call so she can hear his voice. She will be so happy to see him, Daisy, Mimi and Papa!

Avery Claire Thompson

My brother Mark and his wife Annie had their third little girl last night. She is precious and I'm {SO EXCITED} I get to see her and the rest of my family next week!!!!
