Happy Birthday...to me!

When Andy asked what I wanted for my birthday, I told him that I wanted to go back to New York and see Wicked. I got what I wanted. My parents, my twin sister Camille, Andy, and I headed to New York on the red eye for a fun filled day. We saw the Statue of Liberty again and even went up the pedestal this time. That was a good little hike. We weren't allowed to go up to the top of the statue. We saw the Trump Towers and walked around the tip of Central Park. Of course our trip wouldn't have been complete without a New York hot dog. (It tasted a lot like a Utah hot dog to me...just to be honest)

We then went and saw Wicked....awesome show! I wouldn't mind seeing it again...next birthday maybe?







It was a great trip and a wonderful birthday celebration! We were pretty tired, but it was nice to come home to these three hoodlums!



THANKS JILL and VILI for watching the dogs and kiddos while we were gone!!!! We owe you big time....what kind of cookies would you like me to make for you! ;)

Hmmm you are giving me some good ideas... Mark is going to block me from looking at your blog if I get too serious! I looks like you had a fun time.

She Wears Me Out

Why is it when I need to stick to a schedule and get things done, there are those that try to keep me from completing anything?? Let me introduce you to Miss Kelch....you can see she has had an eventful morning. I had made some chocolate peanut butter bars in the morning to be ready for the kids for an after school snack....Kelsey enjoyed the frosting off of the bars while I was using the facilities. While cleaning up the chocolate mess, I realized things had gotten too quiet. Upon opening the door to my bathroom, I found the lovely miss Kelsey applying some mascara to her lushes eye lashes..as well as the fronts of my bathroom cabinets. As I was cleaning up the mascara with my favorite tool...the Magic Eraser..I heard Alyson crying and realized she was laying (unprotected) on the ottoman. As I ran down the stairs and rounded the corner....I found this.... I must admit I was pretty impressed she was able to get Alyson into this feeding position. I'm guessing it wasn't a smooth ...

With the beautiful weather this weekend, it was time to PLANT THE GARDEN. We started Friday night and finished up Saturday morning. Whew! I wish I could say the hardest part is behind us...but now we need to keep up on the weeding. YUCK! Oh well... (Strawberry Patch) (Vegetable Garden) Luckily we had lots of help from Kelsey and Cyrus...not quite sure was Emily is doing...but I'm sure it helped us get that garden in. We also took a trip north to Roy to celebrate cousin Conner's birthday party. It was a quick little trip, but we enjoyed some cake, jumping on the trampoline, and playing with Conner's new toys. On the way back, we decided to stop in at the local "after hours" doctor clinic. Cyrus had jumped out of our swing Friday afternoon and had been favoring his hand ever since. It looked a bit swollen so we thought we should probably have it checked out. SURPRISE! He had broken his wrist. He is now in a splint until the swelling goes down, then he gets a "r...
