Happy February!

I was so good about blogging for a minute, and then I wasn't... haha not that anyone is crying their eyes out at night because I haven't updated them on my life, but here goes anyway ;)

We put in our 30 days notice!!

We don't know where we are going yet, but as of March 1, we will no longer be living in Brigham City!! :) It has been an interesting 5 months, and we are glad it gave us humble beginnings. I am looking forward to an apartment that has a furnace capable of keeping it warm! Good thing I have my warm hubby to snuggle with!

I had SEPs with my parents this week.

You can't even make this stuff up. For one of my kids, this was the behavior goal we came up with: "I will keep my hands, feet, lips, and objects to myself." Hahaha... but seriously... moms of 6 year olds don't like their daughters being kissed at P.E. ;)

I turn 24 this month!

I don't know why, but this seems really old to me... your whole life you look forward to turning 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, ... and 24 is never an age you really dream about turning! It is pretty surreal...

Brent is still searching!

Brent has had the opportunity to interview with some great companies and we are still looking and waiting to hear back... In the mean time though, I am LOVING coming home to the carpet being vacuumed daily, the laundry done, no dishes in the sink, my eyelash stuff set out for my appointments, etc... he is really creating some pretty high expectations for me to live up to when I get to be home!

Sweet Potato Fries!

I know this is totally random, but this is Brent and I's new favorite thing to make! They are so yummy!! I think I could eat them for every meal :)

Bio Oil

Ang and Chris, this one is for you (if you are still reading)!
Winter in Utah is brutal. It is so dry here and every winter, we have to deal with dry, cracking skin. Well... a few months ago my amazing mom discovered Bio Oil! You can find it in the cosmetic/lotion/face wash section and it is wonderful! It is actual oil that I have been putting on my face every morning and night after washing it, and I have not had to deal with the slightest bit of dry (or oily) skin all winter!! It is made for scars and age spots, etc... but it is a fabulous moisturizer!

Happy February!

I just love this time of year (it may have something to do with the 13th, I don't know haha) and have been having so much fun with my kids! I have my room decorated, and have been doing so many fun valentines crafts and activities with my kids! This time of year is so fun when you have an amazing person to celebrate it with!

  5. There are few things greater than sweet potato fries. :) When you make it to Minneapolis I will take you a place where they make the greatest sweet potato fries ever. Mom & Dad will back me up on that. :)
    And I too am a huge fan of the Bio Oil! Twice daily on my face and once daily on my growing belly. ;)
