July 2008

Not too much happened this month other than Rich turned the big 3-0. How embarassing for him!!!! I didn't even take any good pictures of him. Since we had no friends to hang out with i didn't throw him a 'funeral' or anything. He had to work on his birthday as well, so the girls and I made the drive down to provo, black balloons and all, to take him to dinner. I know he appreciates my mean sense of humor:) Willow also celebrated her birthday this month. She is now 5 and thinks she is even more in charge than she was before...lovely. She had a wonderful birthday party with Grandma and Grandpa Cannon and all of my family. She wanted a pinata, so i took her to the store to pick one out and she picked a 'scary' clown. i don't know what she was thinking!!! One other very exciting thing happened in July...we bought a house. Okay it is just a townhome, but we are very excited about not having to look for a place to live anymore!!!

Willow with her new 'Ariel' umbrella. She claims that Elwyn broke her 'Dora' umbrella when we lived in Wisconsin...but to be completely honest, i think that she broke it and is blaming it on her little sister.....nice!!!

I had no idea what to get her for her birthday. Usually i can just go to the store and find tons of stuff i want to buy her. It was much harder this year to find stuff that i liked for her.

She got way too much stuff like usual!!!
