Happy BiRtHDaY KaRLeE

Karlee celebrated her 2nd birthday last week and I am now just getting her post done. I am so happy to have her in my life. She is so much fun, excitement, adventure and mess. Just this morning she locked herself in the bathroom by pulling out the drawer in front of the door so no one could get in. She proceeded to get Cannon's toothbrush and roll it around in the toilet water so she could brush her teeth, GROSS, I know. After a bit of teasing she opened the door and let us in. That's when we noticed she had also pulled out all of her little rubber band and scattered them around the bathroom.

After I got that cleaned up I ran downstairs to answer the door and she followed, then ran upstairs to help Cannon, she got up to the table and helped herself to some soup and cake, our neighbor had just brought over. But no, it was not enough, she decided she needed to mix the Chicken Gumbo Soup with the German Chocolate Cake. Take my advice, not a good combo! After the day is over, I still can't get enough of her mischievous smile and tight squeezes around the neck. We STILL love her........

HappY Anniversary!

Steve and I have been married for 7 wonderful years. I am so happy I met him and we made the choice to get married. I can't imagine my life without him and all of the fun and happiness he brings in my life. One day before we left Idaho my sweet husband told me we were going to go out on a date. We we got the kids ready and took them to Dave and Jamie's house. We started heading down the road but not to Idaho Falls and I got a little confused. I said "I guess we are not going to Idaho Falls!" He just smiled and told me just to enjoy the ride and that he wasn't going to tell me what we were doing. He ended up taking me to this beautiful hotel. It had all of these different theme rooms. It was so awesome. I was totally surprised because he had packed a suitcase with everything I could possibly need. I was surprised he even remembered my running shoes and a ponytail. We got to stay in the Romeo and Juliet Room. It had this huge heart shaped spa. It took us forever to find the restroom because it was hidden away amongst all of the trees in the garden, but when we found it they had made the toilet into a king's throne. It was so cool, they even put it on a pedestal. They bed was located upstairs on a balcony overlooking the rest of the room. He also took me out to dinner and then shopping. I was so surprised and impressed with his sneakiness. He told me that he wanted to give me an early anniversary present because he knew that it would be harder to get away in Michigan. We had a great time and didn't want to leave, just to pack up and leave for Iowa. It was the best date I have ever been on. I love how Steve spoils me. What a great guy!
