An Outpouring of LOVE

This past Wednesday my good friend Kristy asked if I wanted to go out to lunch with some friends in the neighborhood. Of course I said "Yes". She came and picked me up and handed me my sandwich from Kneaders, I said what is going on Kristy and then I saw my Mom drive. She drove me down to the clubhouse where her and Laurie had planned a surprise baby shower for me!! I couldn't believe it, I actually started crying it was sooo nice. So many people came that are just amazing friends and gave me really cute things for the awaited baby Linc. I felt so loved and grateful that I am surrounded by such great friends and family!! Thanks Kristy and Laurie you guys are the BEST!!

The night before I had a traumatic eyelash incidence where I pulled out half my eyelashes with an eyelash curler. To say the least it sent me over the top with filling ugly and I had a little breakdown. Every girl is entitled to an ugly cry every once in a while. Well one of my sweet young women found out and brought me up a card and candy bar. She was so dang cute!!

Thank you to everyone I am one lucky girl!!

Glasses




It was a big week for Kaden he lost his tooth and then got glasses a few days later. He is a little farsighted so he needs them for when he is reading or doing school work. He loves his new glasses and Tyler is more than a little jealous. I think he looks like one handsome little dude. We are also hoping that this will help him to be able to focus longer when reading!!

One happy little boy with a big hole in his smile!!

I am glad I have a sister who is brave enough to tie floss to my childs tooth then pull the door open. The first time the floss slip off his tooth and then the second time he thought it was still in his mouth till he saw it dangling at the end of the floss. The root on this tooth was just as big as the tooth itself but he said it didn't hurt. He is one brave little boy I never let my Dad do that!!

Girls Trip


A few weekends ago I went on an awesome girls trip to Park City with some amazing friends from High School!! It was so much fun talking all night long, getting pedicures and shopping for like 4 hours ( the longest shopping trip I have ever been on but I loved every minute of it) . It was great just being with the girls!! My friend Lauren and I are due a week apart and it was just fun being together!! Thank you, thank you, thank you April for putting it all together!!

Every time I stop and think about all the amazing friends I have in my life whether from high school, college, neighbors, etc. I am completely overwhelmed with gratitude. Last summer when we were faced with a trial in life I cannot even begin to describe how much comfort it brought when I would think about how all the different people I knew I could call if I needed any help at all. So thank you to all my friends and letting me be a part of your lives!!
