So I am a dork....

It was my birthday on the 10th and I celebrated and celebrated and celebrated (And I didn't even take 1 single picture....)!!! On Friday night we dropped my kids off at my sisters house (I was really worried about Caleb-he has never stayed with her before) and Ben and I went and saw Iron Man 2, went to dinner at Red Robin and then went to Sundaes and had a YUMMY sundae! We had such a blast!!! Then on Saturday we went through the temple with Ben's little sister Stephanie. We were really excited for her, this will be a big step in her life.

Then on Sunday after church we went to Ben's families house and had lunch for Mother's Day. His grandparents were here from Mississippi and it was so much fun to see them. The luncheon was wonderful and YUMMY!!! THEN....Yes it continues, we went to My parents house from yet another luncheon. Again it was Delish! We got to spend it with my brother and his soon-to-be wife, Diana and her son Brody. They are getting married this Friday and we are SO EXCITED for them. 

By the way I just want to say how much I LOVE MY MOMS!! I have the BEST Mom and the BEST Mother-in-law! They do so much for me and give me the best advise! I love them more than words can describe!!

On Monday my Mom came down and took me shopping and to lunch. It was also YUMMY!!! Later that night Ben's family came over and had cake (Ben's Mom made my cake...Thank you)) and ice cream with us. Thank you EVERYONE for celebrating with me and wishing me birthday wishes!!!!

 And as for the being a dork part of my blog I have to brag about the GREAT deals I got today (at Albertsons and Wal-Mart). I got ALL of the below for $25.76 and I saved $92.99. I was thrilled!!!!!!

It is ALREADY May???

It really has been forever since I last updated my blog! I need to do better. So I will do a little backtracking. I took some Easter pictures of my kids, as a little girl my Mom always bought us new Easter dresses and Christmas dresses. I have hung on to this tradition because I loved getting new dresses. I wanted to find gloves for Emily but I never did, maybe next year. Here are some of the pictures I took:

Aren't they the cutest things???? Well I think so!!!

Also a few Fridays ago I decided to take Emily on a girl's day out. It is fun to spend time with just her and have a little Mommy-Daughter bonding. 

 

We went to the Pine Ridge Mall to do a little shopping...first we stopped at the pizza place and got some pizza, she loves pepperoni pizza, but the slices were HUGE!! We took most of it home.

After we did some shopping we went to the little play area. I think this was more fun for Emily than anything. There were funny little toys she liked to climb on and I think she even made a couple friends.

A few days ago we decided to go on a little drive. We went up past Arco and went to a little place to eat named Pickles, it was different...we'll leave it at that! :)

We then went past all the beautiful mountain ranges. Here are some of them:

Mt. McCaleb--my new favorite mountain!!

Mt. Borah--Ben climbed this last summer. I was freaked out when I imagined him at the top of this peak!!! AHHHH!

Some other fun pictures

Our attempt to take a portrait of ourselves....hahaha

So here is to a ~HAPPY MAY~!!!!!

Hope the weather warms up so I can get my garden planted.
