21st Birthday!

This Wed I turned 21! I had a few different celebrations with my fam and of course got some great gifts!!! Here are a ton of pictures!

So Joel has school every night Monday-Wed. But because Monday was a holiday, we went out with my mom and my sis for my dinner! I chose Los Hermanos! YUM!!! (And the give amazing fried ice cream for birthdays!)

They came and sang me happy birthday... with of course the "mexican" screams and singing! Well it scared the LIVING CRAP out of Jaxon... he was so upset!!!

But after a little of mamas ice cream he was fine! :)

On my actual birthday, Joel skipped his first class and we had a YUMMY cake and opened a couple presents before he left for school!


The next night my dad and his fam took me to Macaroni Grill! Yeah AMAZING!!!!! They brought me the most amazing chocolate cake!

Present breakdown was AMAZING this year! I am very spoiled I know! iTunes card, vinyl sheets, block of wood, paint (for crafting), my very own pink SNUGGIE, MOOLA.... lots of it for shopping, and my sister got me a giftcard to get my nails done! I love it!

Joel took me out on Friday night for CAFE RIO and a movie! Leap Year was cute! I love Amy Adams!

Thanks everyone for everything! I had a great Birthday week! Love you all!

This weekend

Our weekends are usually JAMPACKED with family stuff, shopping, dates, etc! This one was no exception! Here is what our weekend consisted of.....

Date Night!

Yep I know great pic! Haha

{ We went and saw Avatar in 3D. I was very skeptical of this movie!! I HATE HATE HATE Sci-Fi, but I will say I liked this movie and so did Joel! It was pretty cool! }

Living Legends!

{ My mom, sister, her friend Tony and I went to BYU to the show! As usual it was incredible! If you have never seen it, you should! It's worth the $! }

I love my hubby and family for making this weekend so fun!

**Special thanks to Joels parents for watching Jaxon on date night! :) **

Pants on the Ground!!!!

My mom and I watched this on American Idol last night and it is seriously the funniest audition I have ever seen!!! You will die of laughter if you watch this! What 62 year old man can do the splits?? Geez!

** WARNING** This song will be stuck in your head!

YoBaby!

As I have said before, Jaxon is obessed with yogurt!!! He will eat almost any flavor I give him. Which is surprising cuz he is not a fan of fruit. But he loves him some fruity yogurt! I was at the store and saw this....

They are YoBaby meals.. Fruit, Veggies, and Yogurt combined together. I know its sounds NASTY! They have 3 flavors: Apple and Sweet Potato, Pears and Green Beans, Peach and Squash. They cost more then regular yogurt, but I decided to give them a try to mix things up a little! And the result is...

MMM MMM Good! He likes them! Hope its worth the extra money, but they are healthy, organic and different from the same ol' cherry, strawberry, etc... So that's worth it right???

Jaxon "texting"

Mom, your up in my "bidness". Quit reading texts over my shoulder!

Thought of the Day

I found this quote... due to the current drama in my life right now I wanted to share this:

"Feelings of worth (and love) can flourish only in an atmosphere where individual differences are appreciated, mistakes are tolerated, and where communication is open."

** I feel like this applies in EVERY relationship that matters (Family, jobs, church,school) ! Oh and the drama is not in my marriage don't worry! We are happy as can be!**

My Bubba is 10 months old today!

He army crawls/scoots like a maniac, and loves to chase his toys around on the hard wood floors. Loves his new Christmas toys, and spends all day playing and exploring! He LOVES people food! No more baby food for this kid unless I can trick him into it when we are out and about! If I let him, he would eat yogurt for every meal! Every flavor!

He has had 2 1/2 hair cuts - 1/2 because when he was a little baby we had to trim his mullet! :) I think he forgot that we taught him how to whisper... he loves to vocalize his opinion - Loudly! Gives kisses on occasion, gives "5" like a pro, and only gives cuddles when he is tired. He also sings at church during the hymns.

He is the happiest boy I know and I love him sooooo much! Doesn't he look so grown up? Ah and look at those cheeks! I love kissin them!

New Years Eve PARTY!!!

For New Years Eve this year Joel and I stayed home with Jaxon and partied it up! Haha It was pretty crazy around here! :) LOL!
After we put Jaxon to bed we worked on a puzzle in our PJs! Joel was not thrilled with the puzzle idea, but I thought it was fun! We also watched the New Years festivities in New York on TV.

I can honestly say spending New Years with my little family at home was GREAT!
