He's back!!

My cute brother Marky got back from his mission on Thursday! We were so excited to see him again!

Anxiously waiting!
Left to right: Chelsey, Mom, Davey, Dad, Grandpa, John, me, Kyle, Lucy, and Megan (Grandma was taking the picture)
There he is!! (You can just see his head, he's wearing a blue tie.) At this point I start screaming and bawling.

He blasted through everyone to give Mom a hug very first thing!

Then he gave everyone else a hug.

Mark meets Lucy.

All of us with him! We are so happy to have him back!

The Birthday Party!

Oh man, I'm slow getting these up here. But here are some of the highlights from Lucy's birthday party.

When? Monday, March 22, 2010
Where? Our house
Food? Spoon Tacos (yum!), fresh fruit, cake, ice cream
Party Theme? Mickey Mouse Club House
(the only t.v. show Lucy has ever seen. We think she likes it...at least it entertains her for about 30 seconds.)
Gifts? Lots! But some include musical toys, balls, clothes, a bracelet, and an amazing hand drawing of Lucy from uncle Bryan.
Guest List:
-My parents and siblings (G & G Stout, Megan and John)
-Kyle's parents and siblings (G & G Johnson; Justin, Jessica, and Capri; Kendra, Mikey, and Ellie; Paul; Travis; Kali; Kara; Tevin)
-My grandparents (G & G Austin)
-Ryan and Alayne (my cousin and his wife)

We missed Chelsey (on choir tour), Bryan (at school), and of course Mark (on his mission).

Here are a few pictures of the guests. I didn't get all of them. Sorry!

My mom and grandma Austin.
Three grandpas! My grandpa Austin, my dad, Kyle's dad.
Two uncles, Tevin and John.
Ellie and Lucy playing with new toys!
Travis and Paul. Awkward.
Aunt Kali!
Aunt Kendra, Lucy, me, and Kyle.
Uncle Justin, Aunt Jessica, and cute little Capri.
Aunt Kara. She was really into that book. (:

And here are a few of the other events of the evening.

Her birthday cakes! The little one was hers, the big one was for everyone else.
Lucy and Grandma! Cute!
Opening some presents. (John is being a pest in the background.)

Lucy's Cake!
Blowing out the candles!
Yummy!
So excited! Notice the total lack of mess. She was picking sprinkles off one at a time. So daddy pushed her hand into the cake...
And she started bawling!

Once her hand was clean again she was alright, but the cake sure was anti-climactic!
