Can you believe all the snow we got? That was kind of a surprise. Mckayla and I spent a nice day at home where it was safe and warm. She likes to pull her toy box out of the closet and climb on my storage bin. She tries to climb everything she can. Here's a picture of her latest hair do. Piggy tails! I love them and think she looks stinkin' cute and girlie in them. I've done it in pig tails every day since her Aunt Rudy did them the first time about a week ago.
Ours broke. We had to buy a new one and they aren't cheap. Josh doing the manly part because I tried and couldn't succeed. Much to my dismay since I revel in being able to do the fix it stuff around the house. Here's the result. I love it! It's really pretty and very functional!
I was absolutely spoiled this year! Thank you everyone who sent such nice happy birthday messages to me :)! I'll just tell you quickly how much fun I had. First Josh got me flowers (he had to find a place that sold star gazer lilies because they're my favorite) and took me to Carabas to eat on my actual birthday. Then on Friday, Ali and Howard took Mckayla for the weekend and sent Josh and I to stay at the Grand America in SLC for a night. We went shopping at the Gateway, had amazing food at the restaurant there, watched The Princess and the Frog (super cute movie BTW) got up and had room service breakfast that was also amazing, went to see the Lightening Thief movie, then went to our friends little boys birthday party, stayed up late with them and watched Sherlock Holmes (awesome) and slept in Sunday morning like we were on vacaction and missed church (shame on us) then went and picked up mckayla (who I missed so terribly that I cried when I saw her) and headed home. (Panting from lack of breath...) IT WAS AN AWESOME BIRTHDAY! Josh's treat from the Chocolate Factory. Looks like a saran wrapped Rocky Road turd. LOL! My treat from the Chocolate Factory. Looks like heaven. And it was! I adore butter balls! The perfectly formed and textured little lumps of perfection. My breakfast partialy eaten. I couldn't wait to take a bit before the picture :) Mckaylas sweet face on the way home that I missed so much while we were away!
