A day out with Thomas

Over the Memorial Day weekend we spent some time up in Heber with Mary, Fred, Dustin, Natalie and their kids. We also spent some time up in Duchesne with Scott, Michelle and the rest of the gang. It was really cold and rainy in Duchesne, but we were able to enjoy some monster burgers!

The highlight of the weekend was our ride on Thomas the Train! Carson has been looking forward to this for MONTHS! The day was cool, but wasn't too rainy. The kids had a really fun time on the train and enjoying the other activities. We will definitely have to get tickets again for next year - but I am going to wait and not buy them in advance because the Friday before we went there was a coupon in the paper for $4.50 off each ticket- I was slightly aggravated, but am trying to get over it - I guess that's what you get for trying to plan ahead. As Paul always says - "No good deed goes unpunished". Anyways...I am glad that summer is finally here and am looking forward to more trips to Heber!

On Monday we went over to Grandma Honey's and Papa's for a Barbeque - it was also really fun, I love getting together with family.

My little Rockstars

Aren't they so cute?? I'm so lucky!!

Jaedyn turns one!!

One chapter ends....

Yesterday was a happy/sad day. My baby turned one yesterday. It was a happy day to celebrate her, her cute personality and the fact that we are so blessed to have her. It was a sad day because she is my baby - my last child - and the days of having a new baby are over. Don't get me wrong - the sleepless nights, poopy diapers, ear infections, breast-feeding, and general disruption a newborn causes are definitely not easy and I won't miss those things - but it is sad when a chapter of your life closes. Paul mentioned the fact that Jaedyn is the last person to have a one year old birthday in our home and that made me sad. Paul thinks I am crazy for having a bit of the baby blues - he also mentioned the fact that it will still be another 10 years or so before we don't need a babysitter. Logically I am glad that we are done having children, I guess I will just have to hope that some of my siblings or friends still have a baby or two so that I can hold, snuggle, smell and stare into a sweet innocent newborn baby's face.
