Today is FRIDAY the 13th! EEEEEEkkkkkk! But, it's 5:13 pm and I feel I've had a pretty good day. Kyle sent me a text letting me know I was WAY behind on my blog. Thanks Hun! Now to get to work....
The last blog I posted talked about our new horses. Since then we've had Weston's birthday, our mini vaca to Seattle and Mother's Day.
Weston turned 10 on April 13th, but in our house we seem to have BIRTHDAY WEEKS, not BIRTHDAYS. We celebrated by going to Seattle and taking the kids to the common sites. The Science Center, Space Needle, The Aquarium, The Zoo, and of course THE CHEESE CAKE FACTORY. We went shopping and ate and ate and ate. The kids thought the space needle was a little lame. The Zoo was fun but we had to be speedy tourists because we had to still get to the Aquarium and Warf by the afternoon. Kyle's schedule was set on getting out of Seattle before 4 pm. It didn't happen. After the warf tour we went to find a place to eat. We wanted to eat at the Crab Shack and give the kids their first dose of clams, crab legs and oysters but we had to settle for Red Robin. The wait to get into both were an hour! With hungry kids you really have to try to AVOID that. But we had a good dinner and Weston got sang "Happy Birthday" to at Red Robin. We didn't leave Seattle until 8 pm. lol! But it was fun to get away as a family and "chill" or "bond". Later that week we had Kyle's Dad and Mary over for dinner to celebrate, my parents took us to PERKINS for a birthday dinner, he celebrated at scouts and of course I made him a RODEO birthday cake. So he turned 10 with a BANG!
Mother's Day was a beautiful celebration. I woke up early and made a cake (see picture below) Finished in time to make it to sacrament meeting to hear my kids sing to me. Afterwards we came home and had my family and my parents over for a MOTHER'S DAY BBQ. Thanks to the beautiful weather we had a beautiful Sunday. BUT my favorite part of the day was the night before when I came home to a late night run to Walmart to a new leather sectional! Kyle is so thoughtful! He knew company was coming the next day and took the time to move my old stinky couches out and the new sectional in before the big celebration the next day. He's so nice!
Well, other than work at the restaurant our life has been kind of slow and easy. Just the way we like it. Summer is just around the corner and I am crossing my fingers I can slow down at work and take time to have fun with the kids. We are getting ready to go on our annual Cattle Round up at the Ranch. We are leaving Wednesday and coming home Saturday. All the kids are going this year and all of our HORSES. lol. Maybe even the dog. Stay tuned! Oh! and this is a picture of a cake I made for my neice Madi for her 1st communion.
