The Big 22.... March 10,2009

For my birthday this year we had a party at Alan’s Dads house. We had it on Sunday, Mach 8…We had dinner and strawberry shortcake. For dinner we had sandwiches, chips, and drinks. I didn’t really want a cake so I decided to make strawberry shortcake. I cut up the angle food cake into little square and put them in a truffle bowl, and then put strawberries in the middle with cool whip! It was so YUMMY!!! Then after we ate we let the little nieces and nephews play while we sat around and talked. Then I opened presents…. I got a cricut from Alan and his family! I was so excited, and still am! And I got a scentsy plug-in and a maple walnut scent. I love Scentsy :) THANKS!!!

Then this last weekend I took Friday off to go to Laughlin!! We left on Friday March 13th and came home on Sunday March15th. It was a lot of fun! Alan and Me and my mom and dad and brother and my sister in law and her husband and their kids, and my brother in law and his wife and their son all went! We stayed at the Royal Palms Hotel. My mom went so at night she could watch the kids! On friday we got there and just kinda hung out and walked around. On saturday we took the kids bowling, and walked around ate went to the mall..Played a little blackjack :).. It was a nice vacation!

Then on March 16th we celebrated it again but this time with my family. My mom and dad were down here and so we had a party for me and Thomas.. My mom got me bedding for my bed! YEAH!! We had hamburgers and hotdogs, chicken, shrimp, potato salad, and again Strawberry shortcake, but this time dad made it! We had a really good birthday! Thanks everyone for my presents!! (Thanks Kristy for the scrapbooking stuff you gave me when we were at mom’s house a few weeks ago) Its nice having Thomas back to share a party with, I sure missed him when he was on his mission, but now he is Back!!

Here we come Monticello

A few weekends ago we decided we would go see my mom and dad and brother up in Monticello. My sister and her husband were coming down from their house and so we decided that we would go there so we could see them. Alan and I and my sister and her husband and their two kids packed up our bags and headed to my parents house. We drove 6 hours to get there!! And my sister and her husband meet up with us at my parents. All of us were there except my little sister. It was a short trip but we had a lot of fun. We helped my parents with their house that they are building and then we went four wheeling. My brother-in-law brought his quad so we played around for a while.

Thomas took Kristy out for a ride.....

My dad and Thomas went out looking for some rabbits to shoot.... They didn't find any!

Thomas thought it would be funny to go through the mud, and we got me all MUDDY :)

My nephew and niece just watched us, pretty soon they will be big enough to join in on the fun :)
