Happy thirteenth Birthday to Allison on November 23rd. I have blogging issues so I wanted to get this post up and wish my sweet teenage baby girl happy birthday. I may have pictures of her birthday(which is tomorrow) up someday but here are a few to remind us all that Allison is a fun-loving, happy, crazy girl who loves puppies, babies, music, art, her friends and having fun with her family. We love you Allison!!!

We have been doing a wall of gratitude (which jarin changed to the door of gratitude) ever night before scriptures. This has been a fun bonding activity with our family and has helped us remember to be thankful for all the little things in our lives as well as the big things.

Finally some new pictures.

Allison went on a super fun totally awsome activity with the young women. They went to a cabin and played guitar hero beatles all night. When I say all night that is what I mean. The only sleep she got was on the way home. Here she she is the next night. She is not sure she will ever stay up all night again.

Ashley turning seven. What a sweetie she is.

Allison and Ashley playing with "benaroos".

Here is her birthday cake. She wanted to make it on her own. She put too much Pam in the pan so it sunk but it was yummy. She decorated it with princess decorations. There are crowns, glass slippers, poison apples, and pearls.

Halloween with a zombie lady, a scarey orange witch and the grim reaper. Jason was not sure who he was or what it did but he knew he was something scarey and he loved that. He hated the hood over his face though.

Jason earned his bear. Here he is doing a cub scout cheer after. The theme was jungle safari--can you tell?
