Another year older!!

Well I turned another year older on January 15th! I still can't believe that I am 32.. I sure don't feel that old and I don't probably act my age either most the time! LOL. But I had a great Birthday and got lots of fun things. I finally got a ipod that Lance had been trying to get me to get for a long time now. I just kept telling him I didn't think I would use one very much and I didn't want him to waist the money on one. Then a few of my nieces got MP3 players for Christmas and I was listening to theirs and started thinking that it would be fun to have one and it would be even better for Spring and Summer when I start to walk /run with the kids again and since our running stroller has speakers and a way that I can plug my ipod into it, I am now getting more excited that I got one and will use it more! :) My ipod is pink of coarse and I love it. Lance is working on downloading songs and videos for me and it also has a video camera built in so that's pretty cool too!

I also got to enjoy a night out with my friends and go to dinner, my friend Kirsten and I have birthdays just 5 days apart and so we have gone now for quite a few years to dinner with a bunch of friends and have dinner without hubby's and kids and that is always fun to have girl talk!

On my actual Birthday Lance took me out to eat at my fav place, Olive Garden and my mom came and watched the kids for us and that was really nice to be able to just go the two of us and enjoy a night out, we sure don't get many of those and we need to do it more often for sure.

And then on Sunday we had a party at my parents house for me and had a bunch of family over. We have Sunday dinners there and so we just decided to have everyone come to their house after. I got some fun clothes and cute decorations for my ladder outside that I change the different months on and got some gift cards that I can't wait to go and use as well. And my sister in law Britt made the yummiest Texas Chocolate cake for us to all eat and it was so good! So thanks to everyone who made my 32nd Birthday so much fun!

Here is Sadie and I at the party, she wanted to help me open presents!


And here are my kids and I getting ready to sing and blow out my candles. :)

Here are my cute friends that came to dinner, we usually go to our same old "Red Robin" every year, it kinda became a tradition for us. And we missed the girls who were not able to be there this year.. Misty, Jenessa, Steph, Danielle and Heather.

And then these are just some cute random pics of my kids that I have wanted to put on. Sawyer looking not so much like my baby anymore, but more like my big toddler! They seem to be growing up way to fast! I asked him to smile for me and he said "Cheese" I love this kid!

And my cute Sadie. They love drinking from straws now and my Mom had given them these cute cups so she was showing me her big girl cup!

Lance had today off "Martin Luther King day" so we decided to take the kids out to lunch at one of our favorite Mexican places in Bountiful "El Matador" and Sadie kept turning around to the people behind us and saying Hi and giving them big smiles.

And here is my little man giving me the stop taking my picture Mom look! He was actually super tired and ready for his nap at this point. :)

And here is silly Sadie again giving me her "cheese" face.
