fathers & sons

Alex is in the Elders Quorum presidency in our ward, and they were in charge of fathers and sons this year. I wondered if Alex would even go since he doesn't have any sons and he doesn't have a father in the ward ha. He decided he would go, but he took Ace and Linc with him. They went out to gunlock and played with the other little boys in the ward, and had dinner. After dinner they came and watched the Snow Canyon boys play for a little while. They sure had fun, and love spending time with their uncle Al! 

sister date

I convinced Sadie to go and get a pedicure with me at Taylor Andrews & I think that was definitely one of my better ideas! It was so relaxing and so fun to spend some time with my little sister, I sure love her!

a pinata project

For one of my classes I had to do a presentation on the hispanic culture and their views on different things that involve the medical field, like their views on death and dying, and some of the things they believe. We decided to make it a little bit of a fiesta (or distract our teacher from our presentation) and liven things up with a pinata! I made this pinata and it was actually quite easy! I cut the two sides of the skull out of the big sides of the box, and then i used the flaps on the box and bent them to shape the inbetween. Instead of using tissue paper, I used one of the plastic tablecloths from the dollar store and cut it into strips. Then I just used black paper for the eyes and the mouth. It turned out pretty good, and it was a hit in class! Yay for good grades!

Alex's 24th Birthday!

On Alex's Birthday we both had class, so I woke up super early to study since I had a test, then I made waffles for breakfast, yum! I was planning on doing breakfast in bed but then he walked into the kitchen sooo so much for that. I let him open up his gear pro in the morning, but I made him wait for his other present until later! I think he really liked it, we are excited to take it to the lake this summer!

For Alex's birthday lunch we went to one of his favorite places for lunch! Red Lobster!! It was delicious! He hates being sung to so I made sure to tell them it was his birthday;) We also gave him the driver he has been wanting at lunch and he was soooo excited. He said he was wanting to go get it after lunch if I didn't buy it for him using his birthday money ha! So glad i got it!! We still ended up going to the golf store after lunch because there was a deal that if you buy a driver you get some other golf club for free! Since I had just bought the driver Jordan had us return it and re-buy it so we could get the other golf club for free, Alex was giddy. As we were leaving Jordan said soo 7:00 tonight right? I just started laughing and Alex was so confused. I had a little surprise party planned except i forgot to tell them it was a surprise, I just figured they knew ha whoops! It was still fun though, we went to Buffalo Wild Wings for dinner with some friends, Alex LOVES B-DUB-DUBS and I hate it, but it was his birthday, so we went. 

 After dinner we headed to our house for ice cream cake, YUM! Alex didn't know about this either so that was fun, I love surprising him! Hope you had a good day sweets, I love you soo much!

Happy or Moody most of the time: happy.. although I do get frustrated when I have the sciatic pain in my hips and walking/moving in anyways hurts so so bad. I hate that I can't even walk and it usually ends in lots of tears. 

Weird moment this week: Saturday night I woke up at 2AM and was really struggling to breathe. I got up and walked around, had some water, and sat in the recliner for a bit. I tried to go back to bed but I just laid there and struggled to breathe for hours. It was the weirdest thing. Anytime I tried to take a deep breath my throat made a kind of gurgling noise? I think it had something to do with the reflux I have had. I'm not really sure it was so strange. I spent Sunday just relaxing at home. I still was having a hard time breathing but nothing like it was in the night. I'm not sure what happened but I am sure glad it is gone!
