The Wilson Family

Disney Ditch Day!

It has been a while since we had one of these!

And Luke and Cali submitted their papers, so we needed to get in a Disney day before they leave for their missions!

So, early in November, we let Brody miss school and off we went for a fabulous day!

They made us wear masks on rides again. Because I guess Covid is still a thing (whatever!)

It was such fun day, just us. I will miss these while my middles are gone.

Halloween Sunday

Halloween fell on Sunday in 2021.

It was also the Primary Program, so things were a little different than usual.

But I did get the family some fun skeleton puzzle sugar cookies-

I let Brody go to Cool Gavin's to help take the little sister's trick r treating. They were funky fish-

That night, we went over to Ben & Meish's and watched their house and handed out candy while they took the girls trick r treating.

These 2 celebrated their 1 year wedding anniversary!

I got them tickets to see Danny Elfman perform the "Nightmare Before Christmas" in LA. Billie Eilish and Weird Al were also part of the performance. They were stoked! They dressed up as Victor and Emily from Corpse Bride.

Trunk r Treat

It has been my dream for some time to get a group together and be the Spice Girls for Halloween. This year, that dream came true!

Vista 10th Ward Trunk r Treat

Jeremy was a "Numbers Guy", "A Guy you can count on". (Covered in Post Its with numbers on them - Genius).

I got to be Scary Spice and Cali got to be Ginger Spice!

My trunk turned out so good this year!

My favorite costume of the night was the Benny Robot-

Rainbow Unicorn and little Jack were pretty cute too!

I am so grateful for Meish (Baby Spice), Jen (Posh Spice) and Kaci (Sporty Spice), for making my Spice Girls dream a reality. We looked awesome!

Luke was "The Man with No Name"-

And we won the prize for "Most Creative Costume"! Yeah Baby!

46 & 1

I spent my 46th birthday celebrating the 1st birthday of Kenzee Boo!

I did get breakfast in bed and had so much fun at church! We were practicing for the program and the kids all wrote fun messages to me and stuck them on the white board. I felt pretty special.

The "Fairy First Birthday" was a success and it was so fun to celebrate with so many loved ones.

Surprise Birthday Weekend!

Renee informed us the week before her birthday that her son Ethan had been battling a rare aggressive form of cancer. It broke my heart. So, I decided she needed some extra love from her friends. I texted Yvonne on Sunday 10/10 and asked if she wanted to join me. She was in! So, I reached out to her husband and we decided to make it a surprise. That Friday night, Yvonne and I flew to Phoenix and uber'd to Renee's house and surprised her! She was so surprised and happy to see us!

It was awesome! We hung out for a bit at her house, then her sister came and picked us up and we stayed at her house for the night. Saturday was her actual birthday. We went out to breakfast and then went back to her house and made soap and chapstick!

Then we headed to downtown Gilbert and walked around and got some yummy food. Yvonne and I had to grab our flight home that night, but it was such a wonderful day. So glad that I listened to that little voice that told me to go see her. I love these friendships and that we've been able to keep them for so long. She needed a break and some extra love and I am so glad we were able to give that to her.
