For the Big #8 on the Top Ten List, I decided to include a few pictures of every member of our family on their special day. We love birthdays!! And wether we are surrounded by lots of family & friends, or we just decide to party with our own *little* family, we always have a good time.
We'll start with Kimberly, since she has a January birthday (speaking of which, she turns 15 in a few days!!!!)
Kimberly Turned 14!!
On the morning of Kimberly's 14th Birthday, she played in the Ten Sleep Middle School Basketball Game. So...this first picture is of Kimberly, wearing jersey #14 at the line shooting a free throw, which brought Ten Sleep's points to 14!! And guess what Kimberly's FAVORITE number is?? So...here is Kimberly wearing Jersey #14, scoring the 14th point of the game on her 14th Birthday...Can't believe she'll graduate from High School in a few short years...Class of 2014! GO KIMBERLY!!
The Park Family surprised Kimberly with a beautiful plate of SUSHI!! YUM!!
We gathered up all the cousins and headed to Pizza Hut in Worland!
Then back at the house, the cousins gathered around to watch Kimberly open her presents:
And of course...singing to the birthday girl, then wishes, blowing out the candles and THE BITE!
Happy Birthday #14!! We love you Kimberly!!
Brooke turned FOUR!
Brooke's Birthday is in February, so she will be spotlighted next...and isn't this the cutest profile shot of Brooke's sweet little face? Look at those kissable cheeks!
The Birthday Girl Blowing out her FOUR candles!! (I already blogged about Brooke's 4th Birthday if you want to go back a few posts and see it...don't know how to do that fancy schmancy deal where I just print the word "here" in a different color and then you just simply click on it and it automatically takes you right to that post...gotta learn how to do that!)
Group shot! Mie and Eunae even came over to join in on the celebration!
And here is cute little Brooke looking very grown up as she turns 4!
And I just had to include a picture after "the bite"!
Happy 4th Birthday Brooke!! We love you!
Kenna turns SIX!!
Kenna was fortunate to have have LOTS of cousins & family at her birthday party because everyone was still in town for Grandma Tolman's 90th Birthday! We congregated at Aunt Colleen & Uncle Brian's house for a PARTY!!
Here is the Birthday Girl!! Love you Kenna Dawn!!! Have Fun Being SIX!!
For lunch we made Cafe Rio Salads! The yummiest salad ever!! Here are Dan & Jacob fixin' their plates!!
Opening presents!
Kimberly made Kenna's cake...Frogs on a lily pad in a pond...Creative & very cute!!
Making a wish, and getting some air to blow out that fire!
The results of "the bite"!
All the cousins loved eating the frog cupcakes with yummy icecream!
Here is Collin (age 5):
Brooke (age 4):

Kenna shares her new "stuff" with cousins...
EVERYONE loves Baby Meg....especially Sydney!
Had to take a picture of Mom Haggerty with her FIVE Daughters!! Heather & Annie flew to Salt Lake, and then drove to Ten Sleep to be with Grandma for her birthday. Jacque & Brandon's family drove up as well! It was fun to have all the sisters together, even if it was only for a few days!
Sydney turns NINE!!
We were in UT at our cabin on Sydney's birthday, so we headed to Park City to Play! Sydney was excited to ride the Alpine Slide Solo. Here she is showing her ticket...
Our family on Sydney's Big Day...June 2010:
Grandma and Grandpa Holiday met us on the mountain. We stopped at the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, and ate lunch at the yummy mexican place...
Sydney raced Dad & Brooke and had a super fun time on a gorgeous summer UT day!!
Happy 9th Birthday Sydney! We love you!!
Sydney wishes and blows out her 9 candles for the start of another year!!
The Holiday "Bite"!!
Sydney with her sisters...
Sydney with her presents...
Jessica Turns 13!!
In August, 2010, Jessica officially became a TEENAGER! And what did she think about all of this?? Well, take a look...
And lucky us! We had an "extra" Holiday around, 'cause Blake stayed with our family while Colleen, Brian, Kelli, Lindsey and Jacob went to UT to finalize the sale of their house and finish packing things up! So, here's what Blake thought about being at our house for Jessica's Birthday...
Isn't he CUTE??
Just don't get too close, Brooke...
Jessica was so excited to open her presents!
And so were her sisters!!
Kimberly used homemade fondant to make Jessica's cake! It turned out so colorful & soooo cute! Thanks Kimberly!! (I've been thinkin of a slogan for you... either "Kimberly's Kreations" or "Kakes by Kimberly"...what do you think?)
Grammy & Papa were with us to celebrate Jessica's Big Day!!
Such a beautiful girl and a beautiful smile!
Blowing out the candles after making the perfect wish!!
All of us wishing Jessica the happiest 13th birthday ever!! Happy Birthday Jess! We love you!!
Jessica took really good care of Blake while he stayed with us. Here they are all ready for church. Jessica & Kimberly spiked his hair...doesn't he look so handsome? We like having a little boy around this house full of girls!!
Birthday Momma turns 38!
My birthday is the first day of September, which happened to be my due date! So, why is that I have a hard time being on time for everything else? Thanks to my family for making my birthday special, and for loving me no matter what!! Here's to another year doing what I love the most---being a wife & mother to my amazing family! Love you guys!!!
Kent's, aka "DAD"'s Birthday!!
Kent turned 41 in November. We have carried on the tradition of having pumpkin pie...and I must say, that my pie-making skills have improved a little over the years! Happy Birthday to the MAN of our house! We love you for all you do for all of us!! You not only provide, but you lead by example, play and laugh with us, and help us be better girls!! Thank-you!! We love you!!!
