February Happenings!

February has gone by so quickly and we have had some fun.  Here is what we have been up to.
February 7, 2013
We found out about Cascade Fun Center.  It is an indoor play ground and lots of bouncy houses and slides.  It is pay the age of your kid and so worth it.  Ellie has a lot of fun.

Grandma Brown brought home Valentine jammies.  They are so cute!  Love Gymboree. 
And lots of snuggling!
Februrary 10, 2013
We pulled out the highchair and Ellie decided she needed to take a turn.  She is so stinkin' cute!
Gavin was happy to have his feet on the table.
And here's a cute pic of us
February 11, 2013
Patrick has to leave for work early some mornings, but the kids are usually awake before he leaves.  Today Ellie was still sleeping, so he made her a cute note and left candy kisses on her car seat!  What a great daddy!
We've been having some yummy sandwiches.  I made this cute sandwich with red sprinkles for Ellie one day and she requests it all the time now.
February 12, 2013
We made fun Valentines cards for Grandparents and Ellie decorated the envelope to send it in.
February 19, 2013
Ellie is still sleeping crazy.  She loves to be hanging over the side of her bed.

 Tonight I came in from putting Gavin to bed and found Ellie and Patrick both sound asleep.
February 27, 2013
We took a trip to City Creek to have lunch at Cheesecake Factory and had to stop at the Disney store.  They have an awesome castle and Ellie wouldn't hold still long enough for a picture.

Both Gavin and Ellie love it when Patrick comes home from work each day.  He is such a fun dad and plays with them so much.  Here he is with a 'flying Gavin.'
We are having so much fun with our little family and I absolutely love having them!

Elder Eric Cassity!

Eric received his mission call to go to the Phoenix, Arizona Mission.  He leaves on February 27 and will be speaking Spanish!  We are all so excited for him and made some trips up to spend time with him before he leaves.  He is so excited about being able to go before he turns 19!  He is a little sad because he knows that both Gavin and Griffin won't remember him when he gets home and is worried Ellie won't remember him much either:(  Some pics from the couple of days and night before he leaves.
February 3, 2013
Judy kept saying that he needed to make sure he was super careful because bad things always happen right before you are about to leave on your mission....well, he thought it would be good to break his arm...luckily they had just enough time to get it taken care of before he left.
 February 23, 2013
Doing puzzles with Uncle Eric.  He is so good to play with Ellie and she loves being with him.

We were all there for Eric to be set apart.  Of course we had to get funny pictures afterwards.

I know that Eric will be a great missionary and has such a strong testimony of the gospel.  We can't wait to hear all of his stories:)

Cassity Family Pictures

We were able to go and get new family pictures done with Patrick's family.  Figured after three grand kids and a son-in-law it was time;)  Plus Eric is about to leave on a mission and we needed to have an update since the next one won't happen until after he is back.  By then there may be another kid and in-law.  They turned out so great and it was fun to get together and have them done.  
The whole family.  It was seriously so hard to make sure we were all looking a the camera.  I can only imagine when more little kids are there.
