Gardner Village Petting Zoo


My Aunt Candi has 2 cats & for Derek's sake they are kept out of the basement and he has been fine ( he's allergic ) but JoJo LOVES them! She wants to pet them and follow them! So we thought she'd like the petting zoo. First she rode a pony... SPARKEY! He was very pretty and nice! She loved it!


She loved the bunny

Does this not look like Billy Goat Gruff himself?!!

She's fearless I tell you


Around in circles we must go....


SO FUN



Auntie Candi came with us!!!!!!!! YAY So fun! She was getting attacked ... the goats want her bag

She wanted to piggy to play



It doesn't matter if you're BLACK or WHITE
I don't know why but it's soo cool to me to see a black sheep!





She kept "nudging" it trying to get it up!



Sheepy Cheekies



So soft & cute

MULES

Just like Granny B's big stuffed animal Doggy she wanted to cozy up with it... He was nice not to move!
Thanks Mom & Auntie Candi for taking us to the Petting Zoo!!!!!!!!!!!

Our lil BiRTHDAY GiRL #1


Aunt Candi let me use this cupcake pan for jocelyn's personal cake to attack!
IT's HUGE! hahaha But it was fun! I tried to be Angie!





Ready Set JoJo's on the Go ... here is her cake completed and the invite


Lance & Bodie Ford



Natalie & JoJo



Mae & a bit of JoJo



THE LADYBUG PINATA... did you really think there wouldn't be a trace of a ladybug?! come on... And Jessi standing there in tha back ground! SHE'S ENGAGED! YAY ... i get to make her wedding invites!



So there's no brutality involved with this one... you just have to pull the 1 lucky sting to get all the goods! We let Jocelyn go first. no luck. then Bella... she really tried, but nothin. Then from shortest to tallest the girls got to pull. ( the boys were elsewhere occupied) Sienna & Holly made a some progress and Brynn got the whole thing down!



It ate Derek!



QUICK! Fill your baggies with candy!



Free Wagon rides from Randy-Pops Thanks dad! They loved it!
We had races for the kids their prize for that was a ring pop!



Can you tell which one is Kara!? hahaha I'm so glad her sister came too! (Kara's on the right with Graham!)



Drinkability.... drink up before the cakefest ... thanks Dad!

Bodie was ready to help! ;> We had to improvise since I forgot to bring a high chair... we still have frosting on the stroller! good thing it'll wash off!

Daddy's lil BIRTHDAY girl

Jocelyn sure is loved! Thanks to EVERYONE near and far for the gifts and cards and calls and love! We had a great time! I know she wont remember but it is a Hawaiian tradition to really celebrate the first year birthday. Historically a lot of Hawaiian babies didn't make it that long. So we adopted this celebration because we are blessed and grateful she made it! We love her will our whole being! She's such a sweet spirit full of love and fun. Happy Birthday Jocelyn Kaila.

Lata POPS


LETHERBY's


He said, "If you want some of this ice cream you have to sit still & be cute!" She did... so she got some!


With a cherry on TOP


Kisses bye bye






So sad... Pops got to visit us for Jocelyn's 1st bday for just 1 week! Then back to work. We has one last hooraw before he left: Cafe Rio & Letherby's! Haven't had one of them? Next time you are in Utah. GO! My theory is that since Utah doesn't have the alcohol like most states... they got the ICE CREAM! Letherby's gives a whooping amount of DELISH ice cream! Also regular food, but that's not what we go for. This is their SMALL Chocolate Toasted Almond Sundae! HA We were stuffed so held back and just shared.


Then to the airport to send him off. I love you Daddy! Forever your GiRL!
