The Barbie Party! The girls met some of their cousins there and began the night by playing downstairs with their barbies in a big barbie house.
The food: Yummy, yummy. Malinda made a beautiful Barbie cake and Mallory brought Barbie pink cupcakes with a "B" on top for Barbie. Brea told me, "Look Mom, they have a B for Brea". She felt pretty special and I didn't tell her the real reason for the "B", why spoil her excitement. We munched on sandwiches, salads, veggies, and chips.
Barbies took over Aunt Erlenes house. Even Digger cheerleaders were spotted on a shelf. It was amazing how many barbies were in that home. So many outfits and accessories were made just in the display, plus everyone that attended made something to give to each attendee.
We made barbie canoes, with life jackets, fishing pole (with a fish on the end of course) and a net of fish inside the canoe. This picture isn't very good, but you get the idea. We came back with wonderful homemade barbie items: clothing, swim suit for Ken, sleeping bag, quilt, wedding dress, scooter & helmet, hats, bags, smores & camp fire & basket of fruit, aprons, sweater, skirts, and great memories.
I thought these pioneer barbies were adorable.

The Sisters, always happy when we are together!
The next day we headed up to the cabin. We were able to listen to Conference up there with everyone. My family does this a lot, and this is the first time that we have been able to join them. Grandma and Jeralin both knitting away, Jeralin looks amazed at what Grandma is doing!

Hooray for Cousins - they are so fun!
Corey and Jeff give some serious faces as they enjoy the front deck.
Some of the girls decided to take a walk together, of course holding hands is much funner, and safer!
While we were walking Jeff and Alyssa zoomed by on the bike. Alyssa had the biggest grin on her face. She had the time of her life.
The kids always love to ride the cars at the cabin. They have little pedals at the bottom and the steering wheel actually steers. Alyssa couldn't reach the pedals so we had to push the back. If we stopped, she would scream. In another year, she will be able to do it her self, like Hannah.
