Life Lately...

Mmm...the yummy sugar cookies Paige and I made and decorated

Finally I have something worth blogging about! A couple weeks ago our friends, Paige & Jeremy, came to stay with us. Jeremy had to some work to do up here so Paige and their little boy Chase came along too. They ended up being here for a week and a half and we had such a blast! I don't think I would have been able to get through the rest of my time off work if they hadn't been here. Paige and I marathon watched "Felicity" and it really brought back some Junior High/ Highschool memories for me since that was when it had origionally aired. It's a great show-and now Paige is totally hooked on it (unfortunately though, it was only 4 seasons and is long since over). Ohwell... We did decide to get out of the house a few times, one of which was to go to the park down the street. It was a really nice afternoon, and we had fun playing with Chase.




While the boys worked we had a good time just relaxing at home reading, watching shows and just taking it easy. Kay came over one night and we had some classic girl talk while the boys played games. (Kay made me promise not to post any of our 'sweet' pictures from that night, so I am honoring my word.) We managed to keep the shopping to a minimum and only went out to eat twice (once for lunch, once for dinner). The dinner was at Joey's and was a girls night out. Kay, Julie and Christa met up with us and we had such a great time chatting the night away, talking about what girls love most to talk about: boys. Haha - we all swapped stories like our first kiss, first time we met our spouses, our marriage proposals, etc. The restaurant was crazy busy and our food took FOREVER, but for once it didn't feel like it at all!

L-R: Me, Julie, Kay, Paige and Christa

I figured I better include some pics of the boys:
Nick and Chase on our delicious Costco run


How many men does it take to feed a baby?
(they were having struggles...haha)


The last Monday Paige and Jer were here, it was Kay's birthday so I made a yummy Skor cake and we headed to her house to hang out. Unfortunately the only picture I took was of the cake...

Paige let me gel Chase's hair for the bday get together,
so I made the most of his curls. He is so cute!
