*yay for my birthday*

This birthday was so fabulous thanks to my wonderful friends, awesome family and of course my amazing husband! I love birthdays (especially mine). Rich jokes that I have a full birthday month to myself, which isn't entirely true, it is usually just a few days to a week. I think everyone should have a full week for their birthday though, it literally is your own holiday after all!
So this birthday (the big 2-1) was great. Saturday we went to Tucanos (my fav) with the whole fam and I freakin love my fam. On Sunday we celebrated with my in-laws and my mother-in-law made my favorite oreo cookies ever, they were soooo yummy. On Monday my girlies took me out to dinner and then bowling and then we had a sleepover at my house, it sounds very 8th grade but believe me, it was a blast. On Wednesday (my actual birthday) my sweet amazing husband made me breakfast in bed, then I worked, and then we celebrated at my parents house with some awesome presents and amazing cupcakes, I am starting to sound like a fatty with all this food talk but the birthday sweets are the best part. That weekend Rich and I went bowling again, he got schooled and it was embarrassing for him *sarcasm* I am going through a major bowling phase and I'm not even good at it. I loved my birthday! Thanks to everyone who made it special for me.

The most perfect man for me ever...

St. Geezy

We went to Saint George over Easter weekend and we had a blast it was a much needed vacation and so much fun to just spend time with the fam. We got there on Friday night and on Saturday we watched some conference, then hiked up to a really cool cave, saw an endangered turtle who is almost extinct, went shopping with the girls while the boys went to priesthood, went to dinner with everyone and then ended our night hot tubbing. On Sunday we watched some more conference and then went to see the beautiful st. George temple. It was nice being in the somewhat warm weather down there especially since the weather around where we live has been nuts, but being down there made me crave summer even more than I already do!



Rich's sister and her family came to visit Utah and it was so much fun to See them, we wished they lived closer! We hope our kids will be as cute as our nieces and nephews. They are all the most adorable kids ever. This is us with a couple of our nieces.



And at work I now get to run this machine...
