Lovely

I didn't realize how much I missed the sun.

Today is lovely.

January Birthdays

On Sunday, (Jan. 30th) we went up to my parents house to celebrate my dad and Wes' birthday. The second we walked in the door Malia ran to Michael, grasped him around the neck and wouldn't let go. She just loves him.

We ate dinner and had two kinds of cake. My Mom makes my Dad and Wes the same cake every year for their birthdays. My dad likes sponge cake with orange icing and maraschino cherries on top. Wes likes plain old Boston Cream Pie. They both were very yummy! As you can see below, Wes sure enjoyed his. He always puts cake in a bowl and pours milk over it. His bowl, a little exaggerated. All in all it was a fun night talking with my family and playing with the children. {Michael being one of them}

Dinner with Friends

A couple Saturdays ago the husband and I went to dinner with some of our friends. We met them at the Olive Garden and then went to the Jessop's house for games! It was fun to play with Ben and Lindsay's little boy. I cannot believe how time flies and that he's a year already... kinda makes me want a little baby of my own. :) I am so grateful to have such great friends to hang out with; they mean a lot to me.
