Lisa's Wedding

One of my college friends got married Saturday. She is such a great friend to so many people. It was fun sharing this day with her. It was also nice catching up with friends that I haven't seen in years. People flew in from all over to celebrate with Lisa.

Spring is in the Air

I am so ready for this time of year- Spring is my very favorite season! Any time the sun is slightly shining, we head outside. Last Sunday we went to Syracuse to visit my brother and his family. There is an awesome trail to walk on. MB and ZoZo love riding in their new wagon.




Buddies

MB has a friend who he really enjoys playing with. They've known each other since Mr. Boy was 9 months old and they see each other often. They are growing up so fast and doing all the things little boys do. They are fun to watch.

It's Official- Mr. Boy is 2!

MB is one special Birthday Boy. He is very curious and determined. Planes, trains & automobiles of any kind are his latest interest.

We kicked off his birthday weekend by meeting GG and Pops at HAFB Museum.





Of course the birthday boy needed some airplanes from the gift shop to remember his special day.



Pops went back to work and GG treated us to lunch at McDonald's.

On Sunday in nursery, MB got all sorts of attention with a birthday song and treats. He was gearing up for his birthday bash. It was a great birthday. Both sets of grandparents were able to attend and some cousins & friends. He loved the attention and we let him get away with just about anything- he didn't get any time outs.

At the last minute, I decided to make an airplane cake. It was a lot of fun to try out a marshmellow fondant and get creative with snacks from the cupbooard.



GG provided glider airplanes for the kids. They were a hit and I'm still finding them all over the house.




My sister in law, Mel.



MB's biggest fan, his sister ZoZo.



MB loves his cousin Will. Will is so nice to MB and plays with him. Mr. Boy lights up when Will is around.



Cake time.




Awesome presents.



Train from his mommy & daddy. He also got his traditional birthday gifts- a book 'Where the Wild Things Are.' and a piggy bank to go with his party theme- an airplane (he broke his Monkey bank from last year).




This card is a treasure. MB's cousin, Jack, told his dad exactly what to write. Then his dad handed it over to Jack to sign and draw a picture. Jack didn't like the way his dad spelled birthday so he erased it and made a change. Too cute! I guess that's what happens when teeth are missing- the "f" and "th" are very tricky.



MB and his buddy enjoying thier potatoes and cupcakes outside.



MB got stuck in the chair and it was so funny watching him try to get out.



We LOVE this silly little guy and we're so glad he's part of the family. It seems like I've known him my whole life- I can't remember life without him. I hope he has a wonderful 2nd year!

Happy St. Patrick's Day







HeRoos refused to wear green today...little does he know that there is a sign on his back that reads, 'Pinch me. I'm not wearing green.' I thought he would get suspicios when I kept hugging him over and over and patting his back. I wonder how long it will take for him to realize it's there.

South Weber Home For Sale... Boo Hoo

For those of you who know me, you realize that this is a very sad time- we are moving from the place I love. South Weber has been my "dream town." I love being close to the mountains, I enjoy our neighbors, I've made some good friends in the area, the house is great, and my parents are 20 minutes away. Boo Hoo, cry me a river!

The company that HeRoos worked 10 years for was sold and all the employees were laid off. Fortunately, with help from Above, HeRoos found a job right away. He loves the new company and is happy to be there. They treat their employees well and he enjoys what he's doing.

The only sad thing... his new job is all the way in Lindon, Utah. It takes him at least an hour to get to work each morning and then another hour to drive home. Even with my old reliable, gas efficient car he still fills up every three days and we miss him being gone for so long.

If you know of anyone who wants a really great home in an awesome community, have them contact me.
