Here's What's Happening...

Well, not a whole lot is going on right now. Life is crazy everyday, but I'm not exactly sure what goes on! All I know is that I'm super busy all day long and really tired by bedtime. Last week my friend Kirsten and I went to lunch at Red Robin (can you say delicious?). We went in at 11:15 ish and didn't walk out until 12:45. We didn't have to wait for a table, but we did have to wait for our food. We ordered the kids meals first and a 1/2 hour later Kirsten and I got our food, but still no kids meals. We told our server about it and a few minutes later they came out, but because of the inconvenience we were given 4 free sundaes! Yummy! It was so good and needless to say, we will definitely be going back there! While we were there they gave Alora a balloon and she loved it! When we got home and it was time for her to take a nap, she had to take her balloon with her. So I go in to check on her and I find her holding her balloon! Talk about attached! The next day I needed to wake her up from her nap and so I go into her room again and find her holding her ice cream cone! I couldn't stop laughing! I'm going to check on her more often if this is what I'm finding!







Caleb is just moving everywhere! He's started pulling himself up on the furniture and I'm not quite sure I'm ready for that! Stefanie came over the other day and Carson is walking around the furniture, so that gave me an idea of what I need to move so he can't get into it! Thanks Stefanie for a fun time! Anyway, he's not crawling on his hands and knees yet, but that doesn't stop him from getting into everything! He crawled over to the plant that we have in the corner and knocked it over on himself. It was hilarious! Oh, the fun times we have around here! There's never a dull moment!






Other than that we've just had fun visiting with our friends and family. On Friday a long time friend of mine came over and brought her boyfriend and friend and we watched the second Pirates movie. It was great! Matt and I stayed up until 1:00 in the morning! We haven't done that in years! Thanks Jennifer! Then on Saturday night the Johnstons came over and had dinner with us. It was so much fun! Thanks guys for a great evening! We love being with our friends and are so grateful that we have such awesome friends that are willing to make the little drive to see us! Thanks everyone! Other than that, we're just staying busy with the kids and our little Lucky dog (who can't quite seem to master the whole potty training thing, but we're still working on it). Matt is doing well at work and thankfully things have stayed busy for him. He's really enjoying being on flat rate and after his last paycheck, so am I! We are just so grateful that he has a job and especially a job that he loves. We are very blessed to have so much joy in our lives and know that our Heavenly Father is watching over us and giving us all that we have. We are really enjoying life right now and are excited for each day and all that it brings!

I'm so glad that you guys are doing well! I love the pictures of the kiddos--especially the one with the balloon and the plant, too cute!

No time to stop! A Play date would be wounderful. I'll call you but I think next week might be better. Lomg story. Congratulations on the calling. Will you be teching with Nichole?
