Dusty had to be down in Las Vegas for work, so Kinley and I decided to join him. We spent a fun long weekend in Vegas with Grammy. 

We went to the Children's Museum. Kinley was in heaven
 The Art Center
 Ahoy Mateys
 Being a Princess

 Vet Clinic
 Working on the car

She was set to drive with a show, a drink, blanket and snack

Went to the Shark Reef Aquarium - wasn't Kinley's favorite place. It made her a little nervous

We ate at Max Brenner
Karly introduced me to this place while I was in New York, and I was excited to find out that there was one in Las Vegas. 




My cousin Hannah got married a couple of weeks ago, and it was a party! My mom came up and did the wedding and Kinley got to wear a pretty yellow dress. She thought it was great. Here are some pictures from the wedding! Congrats Hannah and Josh

Tinkerbell Fairy Party

Kinley has been loving Tinkerbell and I decided to having a Tinkerbell and Terence birthday party for her. I didn't get it done in time for her birthday so we just had a couple of friends over and had a lot of fun. 

Kinley was so excited for her cake. She couldn't stop looking at it and pointing out all of the little details

A lady in Dusty's old home ward made Kinley's cake and she did AMAZING. I didn't give her any direction except to say I wanted a Tinkerbell cake and she came up with this. So awesome!

The favors - pixie stix, wands, and straws


Box of Lost Things and Pixie Dust

I put pictures of Tinkerbell and Terence up. We had 2 girls and 2 boys, so it was just as much about Tinkerbell as it was Terence.

So excited for everyone to get here

Astella and Kinley

We had a Lost Things Treasure Hunt where the kids had to find bells, pencils and other lost things.
Cort did a good job



We also had a Tinkerbell Pinata

Thanks to everyone that came. Kinley is still talking about it, and how much fun she had

Kinley turns 3

Kinley turned 3. I can't believe that she is that old and she is growing up so fast. I asked her some questions, and will continue to ask the same questions every year to see how she changes. 

This year for her birthday, she had a full day. Dusty woke up early and decorated the downstairs and Kinley's door. We went to the Gateway Childrens Museum with Aiden, Rilyn and Amy. Then we had family over for an ice cream party.
