Happy Birthday Party!

Friday, April 1st - we celebrated Caleb's & Jesselynn's birthdays together!
We invited the whole family to come down for dinner, cake and games, but because of the stomach flu making it's rounds through our house G'Ma & Papa came for dinner and left, and Jenny came for games. 
Can't you tell they are related! :) So cute... 
The kids shopped for some gifts at the Dollar Store, and all in all we had a good little party!

Emmalee ended up being sick all day long. Sweet Britt spent the entire day tending to her, watching movies with her out in the camp trailer. She was so kind to Emma! By evening Emma felt better.
Although...
Jestin and I quickly both disappeared upstairs after dinner... we both didn't feel well and then were terribly ill all night long and most of the next day as well.
We struggled to be "alive" for General Conference sessions, but slept most of the evening.
Jes was bummed - he was invited to attend the Priesthood session with all the men of our family at the Conference Center... but he could barely move. He slept from 4 pm until 9:30pm! Nicole was awesome! She made homemade chicken noodle soup for us and took care of all 8 kids... it was wonderful!
(THANK YOU Nic!)
Jes and I got up about 9:30, like I said, and finally, after a week of trying to get to it (haha) we finally got to play Settlers of Catan. *grin* Brent and Nicole loved it.
ha ha! We have another couple addicted to it! bwahahaha!
