THE MCVEY FAMILY: The Johnson Family

Hello Everyone-
We are doing great. We had a great Halloween and Blake had a great first birthday. Not much has changed with us, just busy with every day life. Here are some pictures from the past month...enjoy!!

Taylor had Mother Goose Day at school. She recited "Mary Had A Little Lamb" in a very quiet voice, but got up in front of the class which is a huge deal for her. She also picked out my old dress to wear as her costume.

The lizards we brought back from lake Powell did not last very long. The little baby died and Kaylee let the other 2 go back into the wild. Little Lizzie the Lizard is buried in our back yard by the fairy house.

Warren got out all of his old Star Wars toys and the girls love them. They are pretty obsessed with Star Wars right now.

Blake turned 1 years old. I can't believe he is a year old. The girls were pretty excited about it all day and I was sad. I always get sad on their first birthday. He is definitely all boy and gets into everything!!

He loved these little fish. He would suck on them, squeeze them, and throw them.

His birthday cake was a BIG hit. We decided to make one of Warren's favorite cakes..lemon cream cake. Blake was a little weary at first, but he quickly devoured every single bite. He kept looking down on his bib for little pieces.

We also got Blake a toy wagon he can push around. The girls often use it as a shopping cart, but they also love helping Blake fill it with toys.

I love Halloween and we had a great time this year. Everyone was a person from Star Wars, except for Blake. This was not my idea. It all started when Taylor said she wanted to be the Master from Star Wars. Kaylee quickly decided to be Princess Lea, and Nicole desperately wanted to be Darth Vader. It was pretty fun and the girls loved it.
