Everybody hates a negative post!

These last couple of weeks I could say have had there ups and downs. If I was to put it in my own words....I would say "I haven't cared for them much!" BUT there is always great things and so this post will tell ya both.

Mainly the downs have been illness in the house AGAIN! Ever since we got back from St. George someone or all of us have been sick...very frustrating! Colds I can handle but the BARFS and the RUNS...NOT SO MUCH!!! (thank goodness that's all over with, the flu...to say it lightly....sucks! The winter BLUES have hit the last week or so also, probably cuz of all of the illness, but I really think that I am getting spring fever BAD! I want to go on a warm walk and just get some Vitamin D!

Enough of the negatives.

The positives are, Tate started nursery and I think that he enjoyed it for the most part. He made a crown Sunday and we thought he looked awesome in it!

Jamie my "Hottie of a neighbor" had a great idea the other week to have a girls night out......MUCH needed! We thought it would be fun to just do any old thing. So that is what we did. It was much easier to kick out my hubby and child, than to kick out her 3 kids and hubby..so we did. We had a bunch of great gals from the ward come, we ate TONS of junk food, and chatted(about a lot of stuff) and played a get-to-know-you game. I really thought I knew most of the lady's BUT I guess not! We had loads of fun. Next month we are going to SLC (an over niter maybe) and shop and do whatever girls do at a girls weekend!

I have been getting the baby's room ready. No pictures yet, but I think that it will be fun.....and was cheap! I made a couple of baby blankets for my sister and a neighbor. I have made baby bracelets for another neighbor, she ordered them..and you can too! I have been croqueting a few things...baby's blessing blanket and so on. I think that you are getting the point, just getting things done that I have been wanting to for awhile.

We had our 7th Anniversary....Thank You for all of the wishes on Facebook and on here. I can say it wasn't one of our favorites by far. We usually try and leave town or stay at some bed and breakfast place.....BUT with the illness in the house and NO $$$$ we just had dinner at Chili's. I was just so excited to get out of the house for a few minutes....(even if Tate did throw up all over our table right after we got our food....seconds after the picture was taken.) We felt we needed to take him, because I was afraid this would happen if we got a sitter. He felt much better after that, thank goodness and so we continued our night at Charlie's Ice Cream and shared a shake. Ohh what a night!! Mom says she will watch Tate one of these next weeks so we can have a REAL evening....but for now this was good enough.

Side note:
My darling Sister had her baby last week EARLY, another sweet girl. Hopefully I will be able to go and visit her and little Emma soon. Congrats sis, we love you!

Let us all hope and pray for spring to come FAST....OK???? Love ya all!

Glad Tate is loving Nursery - makes church 100% easier! Sorry I missed girls night out - Jonathan called and told me about it, but I got stuck in meetings that day and spaced it by the time I got out. Let me know when the next one is....
