Whew! Back??

Ok. March, the month of all months for our family is over! I think I can finally sit down and blog a little about it! March is FULL for us with 4 birthdays, an anniversary, spring break, and stuff! So this year we did mostly family birthdays with no formal parties and we actually had dad (meaning Garth) here with us for all of it!!! Thank you to all of his staff! This year has rocked for us because of you!

OK so Eli turned 3 on March 2nd!

He got a balance bike for his birthday (that is a bike with out pedals to teach the balance of a bike. The concept is if he learns to balance he won't need training wheels when he is ready to pedal. I must admit I am a little sceptical but I will let you know how that works out.) He thinks it is cool!

We went to the park for his birthday and when asked what he wanted for his birthday dinner it was "fries" so we headed out to McDonalds in the rain with some friends just passing through from Washington. He was very up for opening presents this year and was excited about EVERYTHING!

He especially liked the tool set he got

and continues to wander around telling everyone he's "Got a job to do!"

Emma also enjoyed the tool set!

Will had his favorite Eli present too.

After alot of near misses with the bat and a talk about sharing,

Eli was one happy customer!

Emma turned 9 on March 9th!

She wanted Ramen noodles for her birthday dinner! (These are some huge requests here!)And she chose for her cake an oreo ice cream pie because she is not a fan of any type of frosting or cake (as I have said before).

Will liked it!

Alot I think!

Em liked it too but not as much as her "Dragon Hunters" comic book!

Garth turned 35 on March 14th!
He golfed all day with his best buddy Al for his birthday.

Here is a shot of about how warm it was!
Garth Requested NO CAKE as we were caked out! And for birthday dinner salmon and salad cooked by me. I guess I should be flattered but I think the only reason I really ask what everybody wants is so they will request to go out! Come on people, I would request that!!

We celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary on March 15th!
We partied down by driving sans kids (thank you Jenny) to Horseshoe Bend and taking championship ring orders! Thank you Jostens! It actually was a really fun night! On the way home we stopped for Coldstone and had a nice chat. I love my hubby!!!

No pictures of THAT Celebration!

SPRING BREAK!

First 1/2-= sick = Yuck!

Second 1/2=Kids to Grandmas and Garth & I to Wolfcreek in Utah to celebrate with Gwen & Lawrence. Cuz...

I turned 34 on March 28th!

I got everything I wanted!

A pedicure! I love to get little designs on my toes!

Chinese food at the HOHO Gourmet (even the name is cool!), a shopping trip with a built in babysitter (Garth who happily followed Will as he pushed the stroller all over the mall), games till the sun rose (Lawrence and Gwen are people after my own heart), and enough peanut M&Ms to last a lifetime (or at least the weekend)! It was awesome! Thanks guys.

Done!
Ok.I realize that there is a discrepancy between the amount of pictures for the first half of the month and the second half. In my defense...It's just not as fun to take pictures of grown up peoples birthdays.
Needless to say it was a "SWEEEET" month as Eli would say and now we are all a year older! WOOOO! And there is my long awaited post.
MUSIC NOTES: Notice the playlist is now different. Even if I don't blog sometimes I get on here and post a new playlist cuz I love to pull it up and listen while I am doing my downstairs housekeeping. This one is one I found on a Twilight site (shocker!) and I took all the best songs (which are alot I think) and put 'em on. GOOD RANDOM STUFF!
