Oregon Trip

After months of anticipation, TJ and I finally got to go on our trip to the Oregon coast, and more importantly to the Boise State football game against the University of Oregon. We had a ton of fun relaxing and playing on the coast with our friends Nic and Elaine, and we were able to see of the most exciting games the Broncos have played in a while. Here are a few pictures of our trip

How many men does it take to put together a kite? More than these 2 because they couldn't figure it out until after I READ THE DIRECTIONS!

The real deal

So after our incident with the eaten earrings TJ and I decided maybe it was time for Allison to get some real earrings. We had thought about doing it before but we weren't sure how she would do with them. We were worried that she might pull on them and play with them too much. But after she got the sticker earrings and did so well with them, we decided she could handle them. We figured as long as we were going to get hers done, we should get McKenna's done as well.

That must have been yummy...

In nursery on Sunday they had an un-birthday party with cupcakes, party games and presents. All of the girls got a bunch of sticker earrings with matching rings. Allison was so excited about the earrings, she has worn a different pair every day. Yesterday we were driving in the car and Allison was eating some smarties. Apparently one of her earrings must have fallen off and landed in her lap because all of a sudden she just started bawling and screaming, "I ate my earring mommy! I ate my earring!"
The funny part about it was that she wasn't upset that she mistook her earring for a smarty and was now digesting it, but she was just devastated that her earring was gone and she couldn't wear it anymore.
