Happy Birthday to Me!

Sorry I've been a slacker lately... that is what I get for working too much. I was going to update earlier but I couldn't get the internet to work!

reunion and being in our so many of our friends and family. We had a great trip up to Utah last week. It was so fun to see everyone. We had a great time at the mission reunion and it was wonderful to be in our condo for the weekend. On Sunday we had a party with the family! My niece Addy's birthday had been the day before so we had a fun joint birthday. Betsy made the cutest monkey cake!





Scott and I enjoyed playing with the party toys!













DaNae gave me the coolest birthday present! Here is the BYU football shirt for the year! I was so excited... that is one thing that I really miss about being in AZ during the football season... I don't even get to watch most of the games since they aren't broadcasted down here. DaNae got Scott a shirt too! As much as I miss BYU football I have to admit that I am glad that I am missing the snow storm that is supposed to hit Utah today! It has cooled down here this week and I am enjoying a cool breeze through the windows!

So we drove home from Utah on Monday and we have just been working all week! On Thursday we had dinner with the family and I got Sleeping Beauty for my birthday! I was so excited! Scott and I love that movie... when he was little he used to pretend he was the prince and fight the tumble weeds outside... he is MY charming prince! On Friday I got to sleep in a little and go to work about an hour late! That felt good! My co-workers even get doughnuts to share. Scott took me out to lunch and the family got me a mickey bag full of treats at work! After we all got off work we headed to the opening night of the state fair! We had fun eating food and riding rides. I had a birthday headband that I had to wear all night so I got lots of happy birthdays!

We all went on the Ferris Wheel and it was fun to see everything from up high. Scott and I also decided to go on this ride. It was awesome! We were spinning around upside down for while.... we were going everywhere... it was a neat sensation. We are in those cars... upside down!

This picture is right as the ride finished... My hair is all in my face cause we had been upside down... It was a cool ride.













Later that night Lanae, her friend Liz and I all went down the big slide. Lanae won the race and here we are arriving at the bottom! We had so much fun. I ate funnel cake for Dan and Fries for DaNae... they asked me to! We also all shared Kettle Corn, Carmel Apples, Turkey Legs, Fresh Lemonade, and Fry Bread! I think that is all we ate... but there could be more.... we also found some nice jewelry! I had a really fun birthday!
