Spring Break

My friend Katie invited me to take a road trip with her to Utah for spring break! We left Wednesday morning and returned Sunday evening. It was a nice quick trip out of the heat!


Beautiful {Snow Capped} mountains

Nana, Papa, Hayden, Susan, McKenzie, Great Grandma Wilson {who will be 100 this summer}, April, MaiLee, Me, Mason
We celebrated Mason's 6th Birthday!
This is the house that I was born in! It was so fun driving by with my sister April because she told me fun stories of when we lived there. I was 4 when we moved away, so I remember it, but not really. Does that make sense?
Overall it was a really fun trip and I am glad that Katie invited me to go!

Late Valentine's Date post...

I meant to post this a while ago, but never got around to it.
We had a very nice Valentine's Date! Chris brought me home these lovely roses!
Our plan was to go eat at the Cheesecake Factory, but when we got there it was too long of a wait and we were starving {We didn't plan ahead very well}. We ended up going to Paradise Bakery {and it was delicious}!

I had been planning for a couple of weeks to take Chris Ice Skating for our Valentines Date {secretively}! Our first kiss was when we were Ice Skating!

I think this picture is Hilarious!

This is what it was suppose to look like...

Afterwards we decided to get Sprinkles Cupcakes! I have heard so much about them, and I had been waiting for an excuse to try them! They were so yummy!

After dessert we went and saw Shopaholic in the Theatres! It was pretty funny! And a good end to a great night!

I love you Chris!

My sister was in town visiting with her kids last week. I tried to find some fun, FREE things to do, and this is one thing I came up with. {Thanks to Bargain Moms for the idea!}
Phoenix Children's Museum
My sister April, her two kids, my SIL Michelle and her son went and had a pretty good time! It was pretty cool, a little expensive if you had to pay {in my opinion}. Around $9 per person. But for FREE I thought it was a sweet deal! There was plenty to do! Here are a few pictures before my camera died...

Works For Me Wednesday!

Turning my HOUSE into a HOME has been a little difficult {because we are renters}. There are so many things I would do if it were MINE. This is one thing that I do to help it feel more like HOME...
I have a wreath for every season! I LOVE my wreaths! And recently I have been trying to figure out a way to say " Welcome, come on in!" {I guess I took it literally!} I used Vinyl Lettering, and I think it turned out just as I wanted!
This Works For Me!
Have a Happy Wednesday!
