Weekend Camping Trip

This past weekend we were able to enjoy a nice and RAINY camping trip. We went to our favorite spot up by Gold Fork Hot springs. Even though it did rain on us EVERY day we were still able to enjoy being outside. Ben and Ryan built us this really nice shelter so that we were able to be outside and watch the rain fall instead of hiding out in our tents. We went with our friends Ryan, Jen and there 3 year old daughter Emma. We had lots of fun! Oh and Jen your apple cobbler was delicious. Here a just a few pics of our fun filled weekend.

The New Dew!!

My wonderful husband bought me a gift certificate to my favorite hair salon as part of my birthday gift. I had been talking about getting a new dew for the hair because my hair was just getting way to long. Plus I wanted to be able to donate it to Locks of Love so that someone else can enjoy my hair has much as I have. So, let me know what you all think. I LOVE the new dew!!

Birthday Cake

I had all of my family over for a little BBQ in celebration of my birthday. It was pretty fun cooking on my behalf. Normally you wouldn't be the one cooking on your birthday, but I enjoyed it. I don't get to cook for a very big group that often so it was fun. I cooked the steaks and we had grilled corn on the cob which I have never done before, it turned out delicious!! I also ended up making some rolls. My Mom brought over some yummy cheesy potatoes and baked beans and of course the Birthday Cake. My sister Nicole brought over this really YUMMY pea salad. And Janae brought over fruit pizza. It was a good dinner.


We only had one little miss-hap with the camera, We had taken lots of pictures of the Birthday Cake that looked absolutely beautiful, not to mention that it was strawberry flavored with real strawberries! So with the half eaten Cake we had to take pictures of what was left of the cake. I have to give a big THANK YOU to my wonderful mom for all of her hard work that she puts into her cake making!! So here is what my Birthday Cake looked like half gone!!

Pedicure Toes!!

Here are my painted toes from my birthday pedicure the other day!!

Happy Birthday to ME!!

Well 24 years ago was the day of my birth. It is hard to believe that I am a whopping 24 Years old today! We don't have much planned except for me taking the day off from work and getting a nice treat at the pedicure place. I will post a pic as soon as they get done!! Ben and I are also going to go out to eat at the OLD SPAGHETTI FACTORY. It should be a fun night. And than latter this week I will have my family over for a tasty treat!!

Playin' in the Water

This is my cute little doggie playing in his sprinkler!! When we play ball and it is super hot outside he has to have his sprinkler other wise he might just over heat! He just stands over the top of it and lets it soak him it is the funniest thing to see.

Here is our finished kitchen floor!! Nice WORK Ben

Before all of the grout.

Here is Ben getting all that tile set. Such a hard job that is why I don't do it!! I just help put in the spacers!!

Legadu LOVES to Swim

On mothers day we went to Ben's grandmas for a little while. The dog and I were out side playing and he soon discoverd their big pond. He can't help himself to love the water so much.

One year Later

Well one year ago today was the day that we signed for our house. WOW what a day that was. I can't believe we have been here for a whole year. It definitely does not feel that way. Probably because we are still trying to update our house and get it the way that we would like. Which also means we have started a new project, YES that is right another project, when will it ever end?? Well we decided that our pergo floor was nice in the kitchen but we really wanted to update it to a more sophisticated look of tile, So yesterday my wonderful hubby started ripping out the floor and hopefully we will start laying tile soon.
Of course my dog had to get in the picture!! this is what our Pergo floor used to look like.
Oh there is the dog once again.
This is what was under our Pergo floor nice linoleum. We will probably lay our tile right on top of this stuff.
