Birthday Time

I know I posted this on facebook but it is also blog worthy....So you will have probably read this unless you looked at it and thought it was much too long of a facebook status post. = )

My birthday Weekend was awesome!! Samuel came and hung out with me at school all day Friday, --sure he was the one getting pampered but I just love being with him! = ) --
We ate a nice lunch of tuna sandwhiches and cheez-its. We left at around 2:30pm and got some happy hour drinks from Sonic. Then we walked around Pintail Lake and saw some ducks and such. We had Taco Bell for dinner, i love me some taco bell. = )
Afterwards, we went to the temple when Henry and Chandler got their endownments.
It was wonderful!

We stopped by my parents after to have rootbeer floats. We went home and changed into PJs. Then Sam blindfolded me and took me out near the temple to surprise me with a little 'picnic' with blankets laid out, candles lit, and a thermos with my next surprise, Postum! = ) He had me open my present which had the Postum mix and we drank the warm drink from two mugs he had brought.

In the morning, He wouldn't let me get out of bed until he gave me another present. It turned out to be a -much sought after- beautiful blue Robe! = )
I lounged around in it all morning.

Later we watched maxx's soccer game and then watched my nephew Eli open his present for his birthday (since he will be moving to Idaho).
Sunday, my parents had a birthday dinner for me at their house with eggs, hashbrowns, biscuits, and bacon. yum! *Not to mention dessert, icecream and sprinkles! = D

 (oh with carmel and chocolate too)

 I ended up playing "throw around paper and bags and try to hit one another" with henry, liz, maddi, and Eli. = )
hahaha later we picked names for Christmas and then played Apples to Apples, where Sam dominated. But I was Handsome and Awesome. = )

My family is Grand.

After a long day

My husband is the sweetest! He always makes dinner. Unless Marianne makes it or we all wait long enough that one of us just decides it would be easier to just buy everyone food from a restaurant. Yesterday he did the laundry, as many other days he does. He watches kids and walks dogs. Does the dishes. What a super guy he can be :)

New thoughts

I think I may start blogging again. We will see. If blogging on my iPod is easy and works well, then I may do it frequently. For today just a quick update on our lives,
Sam is searching for a job.
I am still going to school. Planning to graduate from Cosmo in January.
We live with Marianne and Maxx but now Ben and Steven live with us also.
Maxx is in soccer and we enjoy watching his games on Saturdays.



I am in the Primary Presidency in our ward, 1st counselor.
Sam is the assistant teacher's quorum advisor.
I am excited for fall =]

Fab-u-louso

Life is good.
Still married to the best guy ever.
Not pregnant!
GOing to Cosmetology school on monday-friday from 8am to 4:30pm. It makes for a very long day. Especially since i am getting up much earlier to go with my sister-in-law who has work at 7am.
Sam is also going to school full time but one class a day monday-thursday.
The Lord works in His own way but He takes good care of us and we are so very blessed! <3
