We celebrated the twins birthday a day early on Saturday August 19. They woke up and received presents. We ended the day by going to the RPD family picnic. We told the twins it was part of their birthday. They loved it! They had a great day.
Ally was upset because she didn't have a cupcake and we had to wait in line.This nice lady went a got her one and she was happy.
They fell asleep on the drive to the RPD family picnic.
The twins main present was Silverwood. Andy has been asking to go since we were last there 2 months ago. The pictures are in reverse. This is the end of the day after the candy store.
Allison really wanted her own horse that went up and down but they were all taken. All on his own Joseph traded Allison and told her happy birthday. Very proud mom.
The last time Allison came to Silverwood she was sick and did't want to go on any rides. As you can see she loved every bit of it this time.

This became a very expensive blessing. Tuesday August 15th, morning it was trash day. I broke a plate and put it in the trash so no one would cut themselves.Came back in and realized I forgot a box. Ran out shoved it in the trash and the broken plate went through the box into my thumb making it numb. Next day we are having a primary presidency meeting and the two women's husband's are hand specialists. The one tells me to see him. I try to schedule with him, full till the end of September. I call around town, same result. She texts later and says if you can come in at 330 today he will see you. I did and he said I severed a nerve in my hand and he expects surgery. He refers me to another ward member, and on the way home he stops by my house and confirms surgery. Less than a week later I go in for hand surgery for a severed radial digital nerve on August 21st. Amazing people, and amazing blessings from everything.
The kids decided to play dress up. Andy is wearing a dress and hiding.
We went to the Brook's cabin on August 12, 2017. Joseph wanted to drive the golf cart for 2 maybe 3 years now so this was a have to for him.
They also have a zip line. We forced Allison on and she loved it!
Ally is mad she can't go every turn on the zip line.
