Birthdays, Visits, and Annerversaries

A lot has happened since I last updated. Faith had her 7th Birthday and got her ears pierced. She didn't even cry and she was soo excited to get it done.

Grandma Marlene and Grandpa Fred flew in and visited for a few days and celebrated Faith and Lexi's birthdays. They took Faith to build a bear and she made an Owl which Faith named "Rainbow". They gave us a gift card to build a bear so we could take Lexi on her birthday and she made a cat.

We played with playdough and made sugar cookies

We colored and drew and even Tyler had fun

We even played spin the bottle where whoever spun the bottle had to say something nice to the person it landed on or had them do something silly. Logan like to made every one slap themselves...silly boy.

On May 5th Jonathan and I celebrated our 8 year anniversary. I made Jonathan breakfast even though he's not a breakfast person and didn't really eat anything, but drank almost a gallon of OJ. We went to an early dinner for once at Azteca so we wouldn't have to fight crowds and wait over two hours for a table. Jon's parents, Emily & Jason, and Bradley & Ruthanne ate dinner with us. We took a nap then went to Fast5 with Jon's parents, watched about an hour of a movie called "Dyllan Dog" which we ended up leaving because it was boring, then headed to the midnight showing of Thor. Was a great day and loved every minute of it!

For Mother's Day Jonathan woke up early with the kids and made me a wonderful breakfast in bed. He took care of everything all day so I could be lazy and lounge around and all the boys in the family made steak, salad, corn on the cob, mashed potatoes, and rolls for dinner for all the women. The food was great! Jon had to go to work right after dinner so I ate ice cream and drank sparkling cider until he came home.
