1. Waking up to a green plastic table cloth over my table with lots of presents wrapped by Abbie and Lucy. They wrapped up everything that they knew I loved in the house and regifted it to me. Honestly they were my favorite gifts I have ever recieved. (A picture of me and Lucy, old perfume, a white temple hankerchief, blue plastic flowers, a pillow embrodered by Abbie, etc) It made my day.
2. I had a knock at my door early this morning and Wendy Heim was there with fresh delicious rasberry bear claws from Daylight donut. What a friend!
3. When I came down stairs there was a big box with a bow on it and a note from Jason. He had left it before he went to the gym early. It was a new camera. Something that I have wanted for a long time!
3. Jayne singing happy birthday to me.
4. Going to Simply Splendid with my neighbor friends for lunch. It was a fun new little spot to try. Then we all went down Karma. I got a necklace and a new sweater.
5. Taking Abbie down some money for her Justin Beber purchase through a book order. She only called me 3 times to make sure I would remember.
6. Phone calls and texts from everyone I love.
7. A happy birthday song from Chetty on my answering machine that made me smile!
8. Max pulling me a side "privately" to see if it was okay if he went to the BYU game with Zane. He didn't want me to be sad if he left on my birthday.
9. Going to Ruby River with Jason. Delicious poppers, yams, and watching the BYU game. We won in the last minute, thanks to Riley Nelson.
10. A perfect day in everyway. Including the beautiful weather!

1. A full day of being with Jason. We went to four chairs and the gate house and then to Mi Ranchito for lunch. Then we watched a movie in bed, went for a little ride on the motorcycle, and took the kids to the Spagettii Factory. I wish we had more days together like this to do nothing!
2. A fun night up at Wallsburg. A yummy BBQ out on the back porch. The weather was perfect and the kids all stayed over night with their grandma. They made a fire, roasted marshmellows, layed out on blankets and looked at the stars, had a fairy party, went to the Meshing Tree, and made lip gloss.
3. Football, soccer and softball in full force. Too busy to do much else. But I love my kids and watching them do anything.
4. Abbie's first week of softball was rough. We didn't make it to her first night of games because we went to Emilee's first soccer game. We thought we could hurry over and make it to both. She was devistated when we got there and it was over. She plays on a professional team and her coach takes it very serioiusly. She doesn't play much but I think she is learning a lot. I love to watch her on the bench singing all over cheers with the girls. I am proud of her for doing this when she doesn't know any of the girls and is so much younger then the rest of them.
5. I checked her out of school for lunch last Thursday and took her to the batting cages. She was SO excited to have that alone time and I loved being with her!
6. Max won his first game in over time and lost his second one in over time. It has been a hard adjustment merging with pg this year! He doesn't play quaterback anymore and is trying his best at wherever they put him. He continuallly amazes me at his everything he does. He has caught 4 interceptions and ran 3 of them back for touchdowns.
7. Going back to Zumba in the mornings with Jayne. I pray my back holds up because I love it.
8. Max spoke at the Priesthood preview and I was so proud. I know he will be a great missionary someday.
9. Our RS retreat in Wallsburg. It was so beautiful up there and I know my mom worked so hard to get everything ready for us. We had a faith walk and Gainell talked. I thought it was a fun night, perfect weather, and everything turned out great.
10. Jason's love, help and support in everything I do! He helped me all Thursday night getting his trailor, rounding up tables and charis and then spent all afternoon helping me set everything up. I am so lucky to have him!!
11. Watching our first BYU football game of the season on Saturday and we got a win..(barely)
12. Homemade raspberry ice cream for a treat while doing homework this week.
