Birthday Week

If you would have been around our family October 10

you would have heard an excited announcement from Macey

that it was my birthday and I was turning 34!

It would have been awesome, but that is old and it's unexciting to have that age number announced:)

I do love her enthusiasm though.

I decided to celebrate by going to a movie, and since Ben and I had celebrated the week before in St. George and he was on call, I took one of my other buddies during the day.

Usually after Cody and Macey go to school Mackayla will smile at me and say, "Now we can be buddies."

Meet the Mormons opened that day!!

I figured we could sneak into an almost empty theater at noon that day but the theater was packed- kinda fun to see. And I love the movie.

Mackayla played on the ipad with earphones:)

We got a smoothie and did some shopping.

It was Disgusting and this is her face after her first taste:)

Do not get Nekter juice. ugh.

All in all a fun girls' date with my buddy:)

That night I made crepes because they're Cody's favorite and we got donuts and ice cream which put Macey into a happy sugar coma.

We went to the park the next day and did a family workout on the outdoor workout equipment, then the kids rode bikes and played on the playground.

I went to Disneyland with a bunch of moms!:)

Saw this sign and love it

and love Ben.

This blog isn't all about me...so quick, last thing. I got my hair cut. Just a trim though...how did I even carry my head around?!? Brittany is amazing - she does hair for all these photo shoots and academy awards(no big deal!) and is in our ward, so it was really fun to have her cut my hair. She's good- now if I could just replicate her hair doing skills:/...

Mackayla's preschool went to a pumpkin patch

I pretty much only take my kids to Trader Joe's or Costco (for the samples) to shop anymore-if I have to!

They love looking for the lemur at this store and getting a lollipop:)
