Birthday Bash and my Favorite Things

Last Monday was my birthday, and man, oh, man was it awesome!! First my good friend Jen Fugal had her baby boy on my birthday and really what better gift can you get? :) Thanks Jen!! Then, that night I got to go on a date with my cute husband. We went to Red Lobster with gift cards that my dad gave me (thanks dad!). I had delicious wood grilled shrimp and scallops, which is my new favorite way to eat anything. Wood grilled just makes everything taste better!! When I build a house I'm putting a wood grill in my kitchen :) Then Tony took me shopping!! And he tried really hard not to act bored or embarrassed, even when I took him into motherhood to try on new bras. It was awesome!! I got a new nursing bra, and my new favorite nursing pads called lilypadz. They are awesome. Then we got new Egyptian cotton, 700 thread count sheets for a steal of a deal!! The next day my family came over for a birthday bash. Where I was given more of my new favorite things!! I got a cookies'n'cream candy bar (which was gone within the hour, thanks Summerhays family!!) and this cute card, stinkin' cute!! Then my brother Brad gave me a new book called the Hunger Games, my new favorite (I finished reading it yesterday...the day after I got it...it was REALLY good). My Grammy gave me macadamia nut, caramel filled, chocolate covered clusters, YUM! How can those not be your favorite!! And then my mom (I love my mom) gave me a cricut!! Yippie!! It was possibly the best birthday ever!! Yahooty-whooty!! (That's how good it was) :) Thanks everybody for the best birthday ever!!

Merry Christmas!

MERRY CHRISTMAS


Hello to all our friends and family!! We are a little behind this year, and frankly a little bit cheap, so instead of mailing out Christmas cards we are sending a mass blog to all of you. :) But at least this way you can see many pictures instead of just one.
We are doing well. Tony and Liam both started school this year (Tony returned to college and Liam started preschool). Liam
loves it, he has learned all of his letters and can write most of them when asked to. Tony is surviving, and is excited to finish his generals and start on his classes that will help him become a chiropractor. Emma has started talking more this year and now we can't get her to stop. :) She is our "Luna Lovegood" and is mostly happy and in her own world, we love it. Jonathan Fox was born on October 5th of this year and came happy and giggly from the start. He smiles and talks to everyone and seems much older than he really is. I am trying to adjust to three kids and to get us ready for spring, when our family will be moving to Davenport, Iowa, so Tony can finish his schooling at Palmer Chiropractic. It has been a crazy year but also a year so full of blessings!! We love you all and hope that your year has also been good, and wish you all the best for next year.

An explanation of the pictures:
Fox got to play the part of baby Jesus in several live nativities this year and a wise friend told us to take pictures of our kids in their own live nativity. She had a picture taken of her kids in a live nativity a few years back and said that is had become one of her most precious pictures. I can see now that these pictures will become some of mine. So Merry Christmas everyone!! May the spirit of Christ be with you during this new year.
