23

This last week was my 23rd Birthday! I feel like I graduated yesterday, but my 5year class reunion is this next summer! What?! Wednesday (my birthday) the 21st of April, was a very relaxing nice day. :) I worked for a few hours, then I was able to do some shopping. When I got home around 2pm Ry had gone out and had this little baby all set up 

He let it slip a few weeks ago that he was getting me a fish for my birthday, so I was honestly expecting one goldfish to put in a mason jar. haha This is so much more fun! I have ALWAYS wanted a big fish tank with a filter and everything. I was so surprised! 

He got me 4 fish! We named the Dwight, Andy, Finley, and Franklin. :)And yes, they are still alive. 

My family was on their way up to Logan for the weekend and they stopped in to say hi. :)

Sky, Kelsey & Randal baby.

When Ry got home from work he took me to Thai Village. MMMM! We have been wanting to go try it for so long now. It is like 4 blocks from our house and it has taken this long to get over there! It was amazing, I kind of have been wanting to eat there every night since. :)

After dinner we HAD to go over to Chili's to get a multon cake. We love it, and birthday is a good excuse right?

 it was yummy!

On Friday, Ry and I drove up to Logan, we stayed with Mandy and Thomas in their hotel room. Grant was such a pleasant little baby! He slept all night!

Such a little chunk! We are best friends :) I am so obsessed with this kid!

Saturday morning we got up and went to the Logan temple. Monica and Josh were married! It was  a really good ceremony. Lots of really good reminding things were said, that will help me with my own marriage. Monica was such a beautiful bride, and I did like that she was able to wear her dress in the temple. 

 The happy couple!

We probably took more pictures than they did haha but here are a few

Sisters :)

The Flavel/ Palmer/Wigginton boys. (and Brek) 

ahhh my handsome husband :) I am so lucky!

Ryan & Thomas by the romantic waters.

One more to add to the Temple wall!

After the temple stuff we had to stop by Aggies Icecream!

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes and presents. :) We had a good week! 

And NOW a funny BYU library video that Ryan found the other day. haha pretty dang funny

Even smile with your liver

Last week Mandy and Thomas had to bring Grant up to Primary Children's because that cute little boy was having a hard time breathing. They said he had RSV, so they got him up to Salt Lake on Monday. The nurses just had to suck all his nastiness out of his nose every few hours, and they had him on Oxygen. He was so cute and such a good baby! They stayed until Thursday,  and before they left I walked around Winco with them. Grant got kind of fussy in his car seat so I held him the whole time. I cannot even begin to explain how much I love that boy! He is so dang adorable! I don't even need kids I can just live vicariously through Mandy. haha J/k Ry. ;)

Here is Grant in the Hotel :) He is getting chubbier! He was so skinny when he was born.

I realize all my posts usually revolve around Grant,

But I can't get over how fun and cute he is.

This last week I finally got to watch "Eat, Pray, Love"

 What a great movie! Even though I didn't agree with some of her opinions. I totally wish Ry and I could live in the house she had in Bali. :) I would like to do all those things she did but not by myself, Ry would have to come. I loved the old man she saw in Bali, 

 I loved his saying " Smile with your face, smile with your mind, even smile with your liver. :)

Julia Roberts did such a great job too.

  I just love her & her Brazilian lover!

AND JAMES FRANCO!

 What great casting.

This weekend Chris, Ryan and I drove down to Blanding Friday night. Saturday had lame weather, it was so cold and windy. So we spent most of the time inside. We went over to Dev and Tiffs early on Saturday to play with the boys. Tiff was in St. George and Dev had to go help someone with their power, so Ry and I got to play with the boys for like 20 min. We played "Badguys" and had pillow fights. Ryan was the bad guy.....so we hogtied him up!

 

with belts. haha

It was my moms Birthday on Saturday, so we made enchiladas for her, and all had a good time together.

 

Mom and Grandma :)

 

Most of the night was spent gathered around Grant of course. He is starting to smile and he is so dang cute! Mike can get him to smile the most, I guess probably because Mike is funny looking.

 

 

We also spent about an hour laughing our heads off at Grant, because when Felicia would blow on his face he would inhale right after and it was so so so funny. I got alittle on video haha He gets so much attention.

 

Mike and Filly are still both on crutches. haha Felicia has to get surgery again because she broke 2 of the screws that are already in her ankle. She doesn't know how that happened.......Mike is having a checkup this coming weekend to see how his foot is healing.

 

On Sunday Mandy and Thomas blessed Grant at Church, It was good to be there, and he looked so cute in his little suit. We had a yummy dinner after church, and we got some good family pictures.

 

 

We love Grant the most.

It was way nice to go home, it's always a relief to get down there for some fresh air, and some NO traffic. I love driving from my house to Ry house in 1 min with no stoplights, or hardly any other cars to worry about. :) We need a Blanding break every once in a while, so we don't die with our crazy work/school schedule.

We have lots of fun things planned for the next few weeks so more to come!
