It's my Birthday AND....I don't hafta get OLD if I don't wanna!!!!

Yeah yeah...before we go into that "Birthday" ***UGH day***....lets take a quick peek into the weeks prior!


First and for-most I was a mother of FOUR BOYS for a couple weeks! Yes, you read right! Two of which were mine.....and two our lovely friends kids!! They went to BEAUTIFUL Hawaii to work and play without us!!!! ;) .....So I did the next best thing and I watched their little dudes. We had some crazy, busy, and fun days!! Made me realize I could maybe have four kids.....??? Haa haa.

Meals and snack times were always the most busy part! Lots of HUNGRY cute boys wanting food NOW!!

Silly kids!!
Cameron was such a HOOT! He dressed himself one day with clothes that he thought were his. He actually was wearing his (one year old) brothers. HAA HAA Love ya Cam!!
Play dates were always a MUST....so heck, why not bring on a couple more boys!?!?!
***BOYS RULE!! They do!
TUB time was a crack up!! Rub Dub Dub...4 boys all together in a TUB! They all really enjoyed playing and splashing around.
*****Thanks Kings for trusting in me with your darling little dudes!!! They will always be my buddies!!



Ok, So now for the **BIG** day! Wish it didn't have to be quite sooooo big...but it was "THE" dreaded big one! Dang it, how did it come around so dang fast??? Really!!! I just can't get myself to say it to you......UGH........................30!! Ahhhh I said it! There.

If I really did in fact have to have this day, which everybody says we do. It was a good day!! I have such wonderful FAMILY, FRIENDS, and LOVED ONES!!! I really do. The best!! How did I get so lucky?? The many phone calls, texts, cards, face book messages, door bell drop by's made it all worth it! I had a few lunches over the Birthday week too! Spoiled I would say! LOVE YOU ALL!!

Fun peeks into the day!!

My silly DADDYO made this "over the hill" banner just for me. Soo silly!! I love it when a 70 year old makes fun of a 30 year old. Haa haa. Black balloons from the MOMMYO too! LOVE THEM!!

Cometary for this photo: "I am now OLD!!"
Really, I was just fine!! PLUS, more FUN balloons, cards, gifts, treats kept a comin'!!
My parents are the best and took me out to celebrate at the YUMMY and **oh** so tasty FREDRICO'S!!!!

I am a dork!! Yes I am. But I still LOVE this place!! So, I show it! Ha haa
My little family!!!

I too LOVE this place!! So it was only appropriate for my " luv muff" to plan a party up in THE....(one and only)...ZONE!!!! Aaron was so cute and surprised me with the super AWESOME and most fabulous cake! I loved it!! Got me EXTRA excited for our upcoming trip!

The fun began....the peeps came. I got sang too.......and laughed at. WHY?? Cuz, I made a wish and blew out the Candles Aaron forgot to get! Haa haa....
The Cake and Ice cream was DELISH, and the family and friends were delightful to hang, chat, and mingle with!!

Action shots of the lovely people!! Silly faces and all!!!
haa haa, I love that Aaron was at least ready for this pic! Sorry Ana...not really you Johny boy! ;)


It was super fun and made me feel YOUNG as ever! Thank you Aaron! LOVE YOU! You rock!!


Now onto my Double party with my darling SISTER and I! We have Birthdays one week apart...but three years in between. It is tradition for us to have a party together now that we are OLD and have families of our own. It is always something we both look forward to! I LOVE YOU CRISTI!!!


On my same Birthday weekend...my luv muff had set up a Cabin weekend getaway in Bear Lake. I was soooooo excited, but that fell through. Bummer!!! Another weekend I guess!!?? BUT he did indeed step it up and made plans to go sledding in DRY LAKE!!

OH MY HECK!!! This was sooo much fun!! LOVED EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!!! It was such a beautiful sunny and delightful day. The kids loved it just about as much, or more than me!!

Great steep mountains to zoooooooooom down!! (picture makes it look wooosie, but it was AWESOME!!!
Me and my sweet BOYS!!

My freakin', smokin', HOTTIE of a man.....getting licked by a dog! Ha!

Davin LOVED this!!
But Tate LOVED LOVED LOVED it a thousand times more! He has no fear in his blood! He kept going down all by himself and then the snowmobile would come and get him and he would do it over an over again!! So much fun!!
This huge tube carried tons of us down all at once! FREAKY, but GREAT!
Here we go................................


Also, our fab next door neighbors and us went out to WINGERS for a Birthday dinner. *YUM *YUM *YUM!! Bummer deal though, they don't give out their tasty pies anymore for Birthday desserts! BUT, don't get me wrong....my sundae was delish! YUM!!!



Love you all!!!Thanks for the great times!!

Blogger Sping Cleaning complete!!

Thank You for helping me out on my blogger spring cleaning this year!!! (see last post if you havent!)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH...feels sooo nice (and CLEAN!!!)

I love it!

***My blog list is three times shorter.

***Super easy to keep an eye on your fab blogs!!
(I really will feel bad NOW though if the OTHERS....start updating again. UGH!)

BUT: ***NOW...my private viewers don't have old dates from clear back when they WENT private (that was such a pain.)

***I also changed my music, ***my background pic (warm vibes...for SUMMER) and ***header picture of my sweet BOYS. ;)

REFRESHING ISN'T it????? It is for me, and I hope for you too!!

** Now if the weather would just cooperate!!! ;)

Side note: I am so glad for many or your comments on the last post. Helped me out TONS!!! MANY of you I really HAD no clue you were still checking in. YAY!

I am worried though that some didn't see... and now they are gonners....but shoot...what can I do now!??

Thanks again and HAPPY SPRING!!!

Blogging becoming extinct? Blogger spring cleaning a NEED!!

Is blogging becoming extinct?? I am not sure. BUT, I do know that it has gone WAY down since 4 years ago when I first started! It was HUGE back then, remember?? Anyone and everyone had a blog. Now a days, people still have blogs BUT some NEVER update them. (OR give a care about them.) Facebook is taking over I am afraid. That's ok, I am still going to do it. It is my scrapbook, journal, and a little bit of social.

I can't say that I am the best blogger on the block. Of course I do have my ups and downs with it. I am much better in the winter when there is NOTHING else to do. (Dang cold weather.) It is ironic that in the summer all of the activities happen, but I don't take the time to blog about them. (due to wanting to be out in the HOT sun as much as possible.) This year WILL BE Different!!!


My new years resolution this year was to do a post a week, or close to it. Of course some weeks are not near as jammed packed with great and fun filled things.(I wish my life always was!) My goal is to print the blog out at the end of the each year. (If you have a great site to do that on, do tell!)

So the point of this here post is mainly my "SPRING CLEANING POST!" My side bar is driving me about nutty! It takes me forever to get through all of you...and half of the people aren't even posting anymore! There really is lots and lots of bloggers that have not updated in like FOREVER! **My fear** is to erase you!! **and think you are just DONE blogging. **BUT what if you are not? **What if you all of a sudden start up again, and I will not know...cus I erased you!?!? YES, silly fear. But heck, If you are on my side bar...You are there for a good reason. I must like you. Otherwise I would not have added you there in the first place. Ha ha!

Due to my blog being private also, you can only invite 100 people to sneak a peek. I want all that want to view to be able to. I have deleted people in the past that I just FIGURED never checked in any more to add others. I hope they don't hate me...but heck...I guess I will never know. **I plan on cleaning that portion out also...cuz I have a few more people wanting to be added. Please let me know if you are still checking in. This will help me out a bit.

I do get comments from time to time from fellow blogger pals that don't update their blogs, but they do check in from time to time. THANK YOU for that! Please let me know if you are one of those also. I don't want to delete you!

I have a traffic feed jet on the bottom of my blog. It doesn't tell me who you are, but it tells me lots of people are still checking in. Thank you! That makes me feel warm and fussy! I know a lot of you have told me you don't like to comment, and that is fine. I get in that mood at times also. I just don't want to delete you!

I hope to SPRING CLEAN here in the next few weeks. My goal is to have it neat and tidy, but more so EASY to check ALL of your fun post **fast and **easy!

Thank you so much for reading all of my ramblings!! AND yes, sorry for this LAME-O post, but it will help me out a ton!

I love these guys!

The winter months are long at times.....and sometimes they drag. But, if they are going to be like that anyways.......I am SOO glad that I get to spend those days with my little dudes.

*I love them ohh so much!


Tate ALWAYS is wanting pictures taken of him. **Vain I guess!!! ;)

He smiles BIG and CHEESY! I LOVE IT...and gotta sat I LOVE my tater!!
Davin is my LITTLE bud! Follows me around like a little puppy!! He is tiny as ever, but tries to be a BIG boy like his big brother.

He also loves pictures and says CHEESE all big and proud. Still cute as ever, even with a mess all over his face. Gotta say, I LOVE my little stinker!!




SNOW DAY!!!!!!!!!!

Last week after our HUGE snow storm, we had a BLAST playing in the snow. I didn't think they would last long, but hours later...I realized they LOVED it!

It was fun to see everyone out on our street PLAYING out in it! (even the adults, yes I was one of them!!) LOVE my neighbors. SO FUN!!!

(SIDE NOTE: **We don't have all of the GEAR for snow days, so don't laugh at the stuff I rounded up! HA HA HA Tate is gonna kill me when he grows up. He is going to say "ma, what were you thinking?"

WE did have fun in it....now it can MELT!!!
