The Birthday Boy Cont...


The birthday boy!

Mom and Dad

STRAWBERRY PIE!!!


Yesterday Was Carter's Birthday and we had a nice night at home. I broke my "not taking pictures" streak, as you can see.
Thanks to mom for the amazing dinner! We had kabobs a la Janell Peay, potato salad a la Aysha Harward, spinach salad a la mom, and AMAZING strawberry pie a la Jim Brady! :) Then we had an exciting game of rook that I fell asleep in the middle of because I had taken Benedryl. :O I don't remember much of the rest of the night. So, in the picture I looked drugged, and I was. :)

Birthday Boy!


Well, tomorrow is Carter's big 21st BIRTHDAY! Woo hoo! We had our "Carter's birthday/our engagement anniversary" dinner. How that happened was: Carter's birthday was on a Sunday last year and we were going up to his mom's for dinner, but I wanted to make him a dinner too, so we did it the day before. What I didn't know was that Carter was going to propose that night too, so there you have it. We had the same dinner of steak and shrimp fondue with mashed potatoes, yummy carrots, rolls, etc. yum yum yum!
I have been such a horrible blogger lately, mainly because I don't like to post something without a picture, and I haven't taken any pictures lately! We've done such fun things these last two weeks and I just haven't gotten the camera out. But I suppose I can fill you in with what we've been up to. Well, two weekends ago was Memorial day and we headed down to sunny St. George. We had lots of fun with everyone there. We swam and ate and talked and relaxed, just what memorial day should be. This last weekend we went up to the Anderson's cabin to celebrate Zack's homecoming! It was so much fun to be with everyone from Carter's old neighborhood. We played games and rode the 4-wheelers and had a great time. I shot my first shotgun, well, my first any kind of gun and hit a clay pigeon, I am still pretty proud of myself. :) I don't know how I didn't get any pictures of any of this. tisk tisk.
Anyway, that's what we've been up to. Carter is in school this summer, we're hoping to get his bachelors next fall and then he might go on to get his MBA, which would be a really good thing. My boss put me in charge of all the advertising/marketing for the office, we're opening a new office in Ephraim so she really wants to get our name out there. Since this added responsibility, things have been really hectic at work, but I really love doing it. I created a logo for us that rocks (in my personal opinion) and I am also working on logos for two other companies as well! fun fun fun! We'll be moving to Provo in early July we think. I just realized that it's about a month away, where does the time go?! But I am SO excited for it. To have our own living space again will be awesome. Mom and Dad have been more than great and we'll miss all the rook. :) We hope everyone is doing wonderful and we love you all!
