This past week has been pretty much awesome! We have been so busy but we also had so many fun things planned and the weather has been perfect:)
- First things first...I turned 30 on Wednesday! Wahoo! It really was a wonderful day and I'm really looking forward the next decade of my life. To help make my 30th year great I've made a list of "30 Things to do While I'm 30". I look forward to tackling this list and making this a great year!
- Turning 30 also inspired me to reflect on the past decade of my life to see what I have accomplished:
- Graduated from BYU-Hawaii with B.S. in Exercise Science
- Lived in three different states
- Married the man of my dreams and was sealed in the Salt Lake Temple
- Gave birth to the three biggest joys of my life: Adalyn, Brynnlee, Boden
- Bought a home (can't wait until we live in it again:)
- Continued the ever growing pursuit of further education
- Completed five marathons
- Traveled to Tonga, Samoa, Hawaii (again), New York City, Disneyland, and Wisconsin (repeatedly)
- Strengthen my relationship with my Father in Heaven and my Savior, Jesus Christ. Developed a deeper love for the scriptures and the words the Prophets speak. And learned I am continually amazed at how blessed I am!
- The biggest thing I learned this decade? How to put others (namely my husband and children) first. Their feelings, needs, and happiness.
- Todd and the kids woke me up with fun balloons and a sweet card for my Birthday. Todd then took us all to the famous Lehi Bakery (which I had never been to) for donuts. Yummy! We had sandwiches for lunch with the kids and did the whole present and cake thing. I picked out a carrot cake because it is currently my favorite. Then my mother-in-law Cathy came over to tend the kids while we went skiing at Brighton. We had a 2 for 1 deal on both ski passes and rentals so it was a really good deal and we had the best time:) I really enjoyed my special day!
My best friend Elizabeth dropped this off on my Birthday. How cute is this?!
- The kids went to the dentist this week. This was Bodee's first check-up and he did great. He loved sitting on the chair and watching the movie.
- On Saturday it was St. Patrick's Day! The naughty leprechauns came and hid their treasure outside our house. Here's what they brought the kids. Green milk for their "magically delicious" Lucky Charms. St. Patrick's Day head bands and fun little painting sets. The girls loved searching for their treasure!
- This little dude is too cute!
- The girls were so upset that they didn't have green shirts so the day before we went to Old Navy and picked out some St. Patrick's apparel.
- Later that day the girls begged me to take them to Trafalga because we have the Pass of All Passes which makes all the activities free. It was crazy like always but once we got through the line it was really fun.
- The girls wanted to do the climbing wall and I was totally okay with Addy going up because she is pretty good at this kind of thing and I knew she'd do great. She almost got to the top and I was proud of her. Brynn shocked me! She climbed so much higher than I thought she would, well over half way up and she was so stinkin' cute about it. Wow! I love having brave girls that are up for anything!
- To top off our day we played a round of laser tag. I hadn't played it for years and we had a blast! Addy got brave enough to venture out on her own but Brynn stayed by my side and helped me fight off the other teams. Our team came in second place!
- All week long we have been selling Girl Scout Cookies at booths in front of Walmart and Smiths. I forgot my camera at the first two booths but for the third and last booth I remember to snap a picture of Addy with her friend and fellow Girl Scout, Jayda. We were lucky to have such wonderful weather while selling cookies outside this week.
