the past week or so...

We've been all over the place this last week.  Two weekends ago we celebrated two birthdays.  I was kind of worried that it would be a little overwhelming or hard or something to have two birthdays back to back.  Totally not.  It was way too much fun.  We had a full weekend of partying.

On Saturday we were all up by 7 and then out the door for a walk at 8.  We planned on walking to the little zoo around the corner.  It wasn't open yet...but in the park next to the zoo they were setting up a March of Dimes walk.  So we donated a few dollars, had a delicious breakfast and walked.  On our walk we past the fairgrounds where they were having a free dog show.  So we slipped away from the walk and watched dogs run around...hilarious.

Later that day we walked back to the zoo.

  Sunday James's parents drove up after church for a birthday party for James and Porter.  It was great!  We sang to each one of my cute boys and ate cake...lots of cake.  I made Porter's cake from scratch which he happily smashed into.  And I made James's German chocolate cake from scratch - except I'm realizing I'm horrible with presentation!  James's cake was freaking delicious but looked more like a big pile of slop :)

Last week James started his summer internship with Boeing - woo woo! I know, he's awesome, right? So we've been staying in Draper. A little shout out to all of my friends close by - I'm probably going to be here for a big part of the summer, so call me!
Over Memorial Day weekend we went to Hatch to continue working on the Eldridge family cabin. It is looking so good! Porter and I spent most of our weekend in our motel room or running around the grass next to the motel. But we still had a good time.


 AND...today is June 1st...I'm 24!
