FREE Cake Mix and Frosting AND a Swim Suit...

Seriously, what a great week it COULD be if you won a FREE swimsuit and a year of FREE cake mix and frosting. Hurry, go and enter before it is too late. I can see it now, sitting at the pool with my new swimming suit on eating cute cupcakes with YUMMY frosting (hey, they sell plus sizes)...

FREE SWIM SUIT


FREE CAKE MIX AND FROSTING

DRESS up!!!

Carlee and I went with Kailey to help her pick out her Prom dress she earned for being on the Teen Board for Kathleens Bridal and Formal Wear. Carlee was in HEAVEN. She is SO girl!!! After distracting her by giving her a camera and telling her to take photos of her favorite dresses (which was EVERYONE in the store) I took her upstairs and put some flower girl dresses on her. These photos are not the best, but you can see how she had to stand in front of the mirror on the platform and model for everyone in the store. She was in HEAVEN. Oh, and the dress Kailey got is GORGEOUS. Stay tuned for photos of the actual event...

Salt Lake City Aquarium~

I have been wanting to take Carlee to the SLC Aquarium for a long time now. SO, while she was recovering from her surgery and I had some time off of work we met up with Colette and went. It was fun to see, but I now understand why you can get a year pass for $16.00. It is small, but slowly growing. Carlee loved it. I loved the Cheesecake Factory after. Thanks Colette!!!

Happy 30th Carson!

The Birthday 'Table'


Opening gifts...


Reading the book that he wanted.

I am SO behind with blogging it is sad. Let me start with wishing Carson a Happy 30th Birthday. He is now the BIG 30. We didn't really do much for his b-day, but I think with all of the work he has been putting in that was the way he wanted it. Happy Birthday Carson. I love you! Thanks for being a great Dad and husband.

SURGERY Day!

My poor little Carlee Faye has been having ALL KINDS OF TROUBLE with her little ears and throat. After having 4 ear infections since the beginning of December our Dr decided it would be best to STOP putting her on antibiotics and redo the tubes in her ears. Since she has been also getting tonsilitis with her ear infections they decided to take those out while in doing the tubes in the ears. And why not take out the adnoids too... The poor little girl. However, all that she knew was that she was getting surgery and that they were going to put a mask on her face and she was going to close her eyes and go to sleep and then when she woke up she got PRIZES. And that is exactly what happened. Except she didn't just get prizes she got more prizes then what she gets on her b-day and Christmas combined. WAHOO!~ Thanks everyone for spoiling her. It is fun to know that she is loved by others as much as her Mom and Dad love her.

Waiting for the nurses/dr to come and get her.

and waiting...

and still waiting (and hiding)...

After just waking up and wanting her Mom and to go home.

A couple hours later NEVER wanting to go home because the pain med's have kicked in and the nurses are SPOILING her. She gets WHATEVER she asks for to include lots of popsicles, movies, coloring books, crayons, fun toys, a cool toilet to go pee on AND A MOVING BED that she is allowed to play with (just because it kept her in it).



Yesterday you would NEVER have know that she had surgery except for her battle wounds from the iv's, etc. Last night and today---MISERABLE! Let's hope and pray she feels better soon.
