Really!

 

This last weekend was FINALLY nice weather! I have been waiting for this since January 2nd! And I wanted to get out on the bikes. My plan was to get out in the sand and sun - unfortunately the majority wanted to go to the mountains! Yes, it had been warm for like 4 hours and they wanted to go the SNOW! I was not happy and told everyone as much. However we still went. See the snow behind Z, so irritating. Kent owes me a nice HOT weekend on the bikes in Mesquite some weekend soon!

Life with a two year old!

 

 

Yes that is vacuum attachments, ALL of my vacuum attachments. Nice and put away in my broiler drawer.
I turned on my oven and went in my room to sort laundry. Well that was long enough to, well, melt plastic in my oven. I sometimes put things in my oven to get them off my counter, you know make it look clean :-) So that was my first thought, my second when I realized it was coming from the bottom of my oven is that it was one of Zaks cars. I didn't even know that my attachments were missing. And there they were. I turned off the oven and then Mom needed a time out! By the time Kent got home I was calmer about it and so we could deal. Apparently it was the perfect end to an altogether frustrating day for him too!

Easter Weekend

So this weekend we stayed home for the holiday. I don't remember the last time I spent an Easter home! It was nice (especially since the weather was so crappy) We went to the City Easter Egg Hunt to freeze our behinds off!













And then Kent and I got to play Easter bunny for the first time! Wow that was a little harder than first thought. I apparently didn't do it right either because at 5 in the morning Zak was pounding on my head with his new toys that the Easter bunny brought him! I swear I remember my Easter bunny leaving the baskets by our beds so we had them as soon as we woke up! I must not have woke up in the middle of the night like my boy does! So I asked around and next year I am going to do things a little different.




Easter Dinner was at Chris and Karen's and it was such a good dinner! After a day of total Chocolate consumption, real food hit the spot! Karen had a pinata for the kids and Zak was a riot. In true Pinata form the dang thing wouldn't break until Uncle Dan-o took matters in his own hands!

Happy Birthday to me!

I just had to let all of you know that this year I had the best birthday of my adult life. We won't go into how many birthdays that is....
I know that that is a bold statement and I can't even say why exactly but it was so great. There was a huge snow storm that day and seriously snow in April, not cool, but it still couldn't ruin my day. I went to work and my boss made me (and the rest of the office) breakfast. That was a nice surprise. My parents, Kent, Taleesa and Garret went to lunch with me, not very often do I get to see my parents on my actual birthday so that was a big treat. That night Kent arranged his parents to take Zak for the whole night and took me and some of my closest friends (Troy, Dawn, Dave Lisa, Mike and Mona) to dinner. My favorite place, the Ninja - Sushi my favorite. That is not all, the next day Karen took me to get a pedicure and the "girls" went to lunch, and then best of all....I got a two hour nap! :-)
It was just all very good and at the end of the weekend I truly feel loved and spoiled. I very much appreciate everyone in my life - I am one lucky girl!
