Lisa loves her NIECES TO PIECES weekend!!




When I first started getting nieces and nephews it looked like the girls were going to take over. The first was my nephew Kevin, and then came 5 nieces within 5 years; Chelsea, Jessica, Kristen, Erin and MacKenzie! They are now all teenagers and growing into beautiful, wonderful, amazing women! How blessed I am to be their aunt and have them in my life. They will never understand how much the relationships I have with them means to me, especially over the last few years. I decided it would be fun to plan a slumber party with just us girls. I found a great deal on a condo in Park City right on Main Street; complete with a kitchen and a hot tub on the deck. What a BLAST!! We walked up and down main street looking in the shops and posing for funny pictures. We went grocery shopping and bought steaks and made dinner and dessert in our kitchen. We played games, sat in the hot tub, talked and laughed. It's so fun to listen to them talk about boys, school, church, dances, texting, clothes and all the important things in the lives of teenage girls. I hope they will always know that I LOVE THEM so much and will ALWAYS be here whenever they need me for anything!




It was amazing how many animals they found to hang on and kiss, up and down Main Street.

What a bunch of HAMS!!

Mamma Mia---it's a DISCO Birthday Party!!


The Megli's


planned the Family Birthday Party for March/April. DISCO was the theme and DANCING was the thing! What a blast!






The party hall (Dad's garage) was decorated, complete with a disco ball, bubble machine and dance floor. We were instructed to come dressed in our best 70's attire with a dance routine. I've attached a slide show to show off the funky dance moves of the night. All the boys in their tye-dyed t-shirts dancing the YMCA was quite the treat! Jessica, Kristen and Erin won the evening for the most choreographed number, but Brad's Lisa gave them a run for their money. Chelsea was the funniest when she joined Kenzie and Jill's routine and how cute was Jana with all her kids dancing the routine they had practiced all afternoon. Matt even jumped up and did a little solo with Sarah. Laura and Bill get the award for the best couples dance. For the final group dance when everyone was dancing even Grandma got up with her long blond hippie hair and busted out a few moves. I opted out of the dance routine and played the part of the disc jockey....okay I found the songs on the I-Pod and controlled the volume! We had a potato bar with all the fixings for dinner...YUM! You can't beat a potato bar! Laura and her girls decorated two darling cakes one was the 60's Flower Power and the other had a Peace sign.



HAPPY MARCH & APRIL BIRTHDAYS to

Dad,Ryan, Kristen,Jeff,Jill,Emily & Kaleb

HAPPY EASTER!!! Seriously...we hid 800 eggs in the yard!

Yep---that's 25 kids hunting for 32 eggs each! That's ALOT of eggs...especially for the adults to hide. Okay, it's impossible for them ALL to be competely hidden, the yard is only so big and the little, little kids don't understand it anyway. I love it when the little kids find about 2 eggs and then figure out what's inside. It instantly ends the hunt, they plop down and eat candy! However, the funniest part of the entire hunt is all the adults chasing down all the kids with the cameras trying to get shots of each kid finding an egg or showing off their baskets. I'm just happy it wasn't as cold this year. In last years pictures everyone has coats on...how "springy" is that?










Here's a picture of all the grandkids; minus Kevin in Argentina and Riley napping!
Getting everyone's attention....IMPOSSIBLE!!
