We had a family surprise party for Kymbal Jane! It all started at the beginning of January when Kymbal's Grandpa Chris made the house. A week or two later we went to their house to paint and carpet the house. We snuck the house into my parents bedroom and went to work. When we got home Pam and I started the search for Barbie furniture. I couldn't find anything. Grandma Pam, Chanse and I spent an evening going to people's homes to look at what they had on KSL. Still no luck. Finally the night before her birthday we found a man that made and sold furniture out of his Orem home. We bought it and spent the next morning painting, covering and making pillows and mattresses. My mom and I had so much fun! I kept wondering who this was for me or Kymbal. We had a great time getting this gift together. Kymbal has a great time playing everyday!

Large Birthday Party!




I (Stayce) am such a sucker! I know I shouldn't post words like that but it is true. So Kymbal was supposed to only have a surprise family party, but when I broke the news to her that she wasn't going to have a party she was heartbroken. I gave in! I told her she could have 4 friends (does that look like 4?). She begged for more, I stood firm (can you tell). Well kind of firm I told her, when she was practicing her spelling, that she could invite one more person for every word she got correct on her practice test. She got all 4 right. Now she could invite 8 friends. We made up some invitations and printed them of the computer. They printed 6 invitations to a sheet so in order to get 8 invitations we had to print two sheets which gave her 12 invitations. I printed them and sent her off to school to cut them apart and pass them out. I missed a phone call at about 8:30 a.m. it was Kymbal asking if she should pass out 8 invitations or all 12. Well she passed out all 12 and forgot one of her good friends. I caved again she got to invite one more friend. So 13 kids at her party! Wow! They watched "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs" so I made her a spaghetti and meatballs cake. It was fun to make and really yummy!
