Sleeping Buddies...

Church is interesting with Emily. It's basically what we call "Church Tag." Scott and I both watch Emily during sacrament meeting *unless it's the Sunday when I play the organ*, then I watch Emily while Scott teaches Sunday School, and then Scott watches Emily while I go to Young Women's. After all aforesaid "tags" happened today, I came out into the foyer to find this beautiful sight:

This is Emily's little friend Trevin. He was asleep with his daddy and Emily was likewise asleep with her daddy. I happened to have my camera. She rarely RARELY sleeps at church, which means she must have been really tired. I thought it was a pretty cute picture. :)

It's that time again...

Happy Birthday to Me!

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOMMY!!"
(No, Emily cannot really say that, but she does like to try to blow out candles...)

Today I turned 24. It's not really a momentous number of any kind, but it was a simple and sweet birthday with family:

Reasons this birthday was great!

Scott mowed the lawn before it snowed... (three hours after he mowed!!)

I got a yummy cinnamon roll for breakfast...

I finished a project I have been working on... (ho ho ho!)

I placed a Scentsy party order...

I got to go out to eat with Scott, Emily, my brother Bret and his wife Ash and son Jace...

I got a pretty purple scarf from my brother...

I got a "Kitchen Diva" piggy cookie jar from Scott...(because it reminded Scott of me..WHAT?!)

I got a pretty jewelry box from Scott that hangs on the wall and doubles as a picture frame...

I got an ice cream cake from Dairy Queen... mmmm....

I have the cutest little girl in the whole world who makes me laugh everyday...

(She's laughing really hard in this picture...it is SO funny to hear her laugh like that!)
(When you ask Emily for "kisses", she bends her head so you can kiss her forehead...precious.)

It was a really great day. I feel very blessed to have my Scott and my Emily. Thank you Bret, Ashlee, and Jace for coming to dinner with us. It's nice to be around family. Thank you to all who gave me birthday wishes too. It means so much.
