six reeds in a blog six reeds in a blog sunday january 19 2014 2nd half of december brandon s birthday christmas jemma s baptism here s the 2nd half of december 2013 a good portion of my family came from the other side of the country to make our christmas extra special this year the gariety s came from new mexico my parents and brother nathan traveled from california my brother reed came from idaho and sister melanie came from utah it was organized chaos and tons of fun everyone was super great about the sleeping conditions all kids under the age of 16 on the floor and it was a party from sun up to sun down december 24th christmas eve is brandon s birthday he s now 31 yikes so we celebrated with ice cream pie and the tradition of singing both versions of happy birthday later we braved the freezing temperatures and did a little caroling then read the story of jesus birth while the grandkids acted out the nativity jemma was mary sean was joseph and emmy was the baby jesus the whole crew front to back left to right sydney as the angel hayden carter and gavin as shepherds daphne as a wise woman jemma as marry dallin as a wise man and sean as joseph such cute kids afterwards it was on to making our forts to hide from santa on christmas morning most exciting part of christmas seriously above carter in his fort below daphne and jemma hayden and gavin december 25th santa came around 6 15 and we successfully hid from him while he delivered this years gifts for the kids gavin ended up hiding with me instead of with hayden and he was a constant stream of whispers the entire time i was sure santa was going to run out i guess it s a good thing he s hard of hearing anyway santa out did himself this year he brought both the gariety and reed families a trip to orlando florida to visit universal studios for 3 days he brought chocolate frogs and every flavor beans from the wizarding world of harry potter and a letter explaining the gift above the kids with their harry potter treats below santa s letter our family name exchange this year was a little different than in the past a friend of mine did this with her family and i thought it was genius so we copied the gifts had to be homemade i had high hopes for this to be really cool but i think we all waited too long to get started i guess on the up side it won t be hard to out do next time around i had brandon and copied my sister sharee by making him a monthly date coupon she made a really cool one for husband in my defense i had planned to made him a skinny black tie he had been talking about how much he wanted one for a really long time but then i found one for a steal at tjmax so i bought it instead brandon had carter and made him paper airplanes jemma had gavin and made him a picture book which she actually still needs to finish carter had me and made me a nature collection with jemma s help and gavin had jemma and made her a bracelet with her name on it we didn t include emmy this time around maybe next year so as you can see above carter and gavin got skateboards for christmas weeellll gavin totally face planted on the sidewalk outside and skinned up one side of his face ouch after he got bandaged up he zonked on the couch and slept through christmas dinner poor kiddo he is so super accident prone what were we thinking getting him a dang skateboard above enjoying christmas dinner left to right dad mom dallin reed my brother arthur brother in law sharee sister nathan brother melanie sister and brandon below still enjoying dinner melanie just swapped me so i could be in the photo so i don t know why i didn t take more pictures after christmas of all the kids just playing and having fun together i guess things were just busy but i did manage to snap a photo of jemma and daphne performing their concert of frozen songs so super cute should have video taped it december 28th we were fortunate enough to have all of our family still here to be part of jemma s baptism day my parents nona and papa gave the talks all the grandkids sang if the savior stood beside me per request of jemma and brandon performed the baptism i made jemma s dress but it never would have gotten finished if i hadn t had my wonderful mother and sister sharee helping pin and press as i stitched thanks again you two you ladies are my heroes jemma was very specific about what she wanted it had to be comfortable so no elastic in the sleeves and she wanted a square neck umpire waist and a pink ribbon check check check and check it was such a beautifully emotional morning brandon and i were both crying when she entered the font to be baptized it was hard to believe still is actually that our little jemma was already 8 years old and choosing to be baptized we are so pleased with the way jemma is trying to live her life especially as she continues to try to be like her savior what a wonderful december it has been posted by jennifer at 2 38 pm 4 comments thursday january 16 2014 december pre christmas december i love and loath this month it is already ridiculously busy with all the christmas hustle and bustle but we also have two birthdays to shop and plan for jemma on the 15th and brandon on the 24th every year and then this year it was just completely insane the first sunday in december we finally blessed emmy i made her dress with no pattern i m not completely insane i actually had one i used when i made jemma s but we waited so long to bless emmy that it was too small i figured that out after i had sewn the entire bodice typical so i improvised and used a dress in her closet to try to get the right size for the bodice and just winged the rest eesh so much stress over a little dress they wear once anyhoo she looked darling and because we waited so long to bless her she had already outgrown her baby acne and looked 10x cuter than if we had blessed her the month before i m just sayin i love her cheeks so much jemma turned 8 this year so that compounded the birthday craze it was a party year for her plus we decided she could get her ears pierced plus she got baptized and broke her wrist amid all of that awesome she was pretty excited about her pink cast until it started itching and smelling fun stuff she was super brave when she got her ears pierced and has been very responsible about cleaning and caring for her ears ever since no tears for this girl brandon was the only one to tear up hahaha it still weirds me out to see my little girl with earrings makes her look so much older jemma wanted a rainbow magic fairy birthday party it s a book series that jemma loves she had quite the collection the girls and carter brandon was going to take the boys to the park or to hit golf balls since the birthday was pretty girly but it was raining decorated their goodie bags made bracelets painted nails and got fairy eye make up jemma made out like a little bandit and has a supply of earrings that i might have to dip into tons of cute stuff left jemma and ri lee right jemma and kylie jemma and mckinley aubrey jemma and courtney jemma really wanted a cake in the shape of a j i tried to talk her into all of these other cute rainbow inspired cakes i saw on pinterest but she just kept saying no thanks i just want a j cake so a j cake she got i didn t get a close up of it not too big a shame since cake decorating has never been a strong point for me we let jemma open her birthday gifts from us the morning of her birthday mostly because she was receiving something she could use that day at church cutest most sweet girl ever every time i asked her for ideas for her birthday she would tell me she just really wanted her own set of scriptures what 8 year old child asks for that i think i expected i would get them when i turned 8 because i was getting baptized but i don t remember having them on my birthday wish list anyway we did get her a personalized set of scriptures and tote to carry them in for church and her reaction when she opened them was priceless makes me cry just thinking about how genuinely happy she was to receive that gift what a gem this girl is so glad she s part of our family and so grateful for the example she sets for the rest of us posted by jennifer at 6 42 pm 1 comment saturday november 30 2013 november recap here s a quick recap of some of the highlights from november emmy and i attended gavin s thanksgiving feast so darling gavin was quite funny his teachers had set up place settings for the children and their parents around tables but gavin wanted to sit by turbo the turtle so we were antisocial and sat alone by the turtle tank that s my boy above gavin wearing his turkey hat and sporting his favorite shirt below gavin and turbo the week of thanksgiving the kids were out of school and the museum of aviation had a model train display set up so we took the kids over to check it out i was pretty impressed by some of the displays so much time goes into those things our favorite display was of course the christmas display but all of them were really pretty cool it made me really want a nice train set to go around our christmas tree below random photo from after church one sunday emmy had been laying on the floor alone and pretty soon all the other kids were laying next to her so i snapped a pic not a very good picture of emmy thanksgiving day we had several families over for our afternoon feast and to play games we all had a great time and ate way too much delicious food below the kids helping me peel 10 lbs of potatoes i managed to photograph all the kids but never did get a shot of a single adult pretty typical in all we had 11 children 2 infants and 10 adults probably the largest crowd we ve ever hosted and just to round things out here s a shot of my favorite baby smiling at her and my favorite man she lights up when he starts talking to her too cute happy november posted by jennifer at 7 05 am 1 comment tuesday november 26 2013 october the first week of november man the months fly by thanksgiving is just days away and i m just getting around to blogging about october eesh well the kids had crazy hair day during their homecoming week i had no idea elementary schools had a homecoming maybe that s a southern thing anyway you can t tell from the picture but carter s hair is sprayed orange leftover from gavin s halloween costume last year as ron weasley and i just noticed poor emmy just in a onsie and her swaddling blanket all messed up that poor girl is definitely a 4th child and yes before the time change it was dark when we were eating breakfast super depressing the kids went with a pirates of the caribbean theme this year again my awesome mom made their costumes jemma was elizabeth swan carter was jack sparrow gavin was captain barbosa and emmy was a cannon ball this picture was taken before our church halloween party carter s wig hadn t come in the mail yet and i hadn t been able to find black pants for emmy so it was what it was halloween night we had a super fun festive dinner with our good friends the winwards unfortunately i forgot our camera so i sent brandon home to grab it and by the time he got back the kids were so antsy to get out the door to trick or treat that i didn t get any pictures of all the kids together i ll have to steal some from karrissa s blog when she posts them elizabeth with her cannon ball captain jack sparrow with his wig the whole crew the boys wouldn t wear their facial hair this time said it was too itchy i don t blame them trick or treating really wore emmy out november 2 brandon s parents and aunt jill and uncle jerry came to visit us we loved having them they so wonderful while we were at church they went antique ing and found some really awesome stuff jill came back with this amazing old wooden box but it wouldn t fit in her suitcase so i inherited i actually feel really bad that she didn t get to take it with her i have promised myself that when if we move back west i am going to give it back to her i ll just babysit it for now left the kids with their nina and papa right emmy and nina spending some one on one time we had the biggest bawl fest when these guys pulled out of our driveway all the kids were besides themselves with grief jemma kept saying life is just gonna be normal now apparently she has it pretty bad lol we had to console them with ice cream thank you zamaroni s betencourt s for coming to georgia to see us thank you for doting on our children for supplying us with gazillions of diapers and for giving us a super fun weekend we loved having you and just because i can t stand that she s changing so fast here s one of little emmy she s smiling and talking to us all the time now i am yet to capture it on camera but i ll keep trying she is such a
