2-We went to the opening day of the Draper RC Willey (on Tuesday). It was awesome. Some people are the kind of nerds that go to movies at the theater on the opening day. We are the kids of nerds that go to RC Willey on the opening day. (And will probably go back for their "Grand Opening" as well.) We are looking for a treadmill and a chair for my new nursery. I'm so excited about both of these things, and we had fun walking around their big beautiful store.
3- We bought a slide for Lydia at a garage sale last week and I already know it's going to be SO awesome this summer. We've spent lots of time this week outside playing on the slide and tower. I am loving how warm it is and that I can go out in the afternoon in capris and a short sleeve shirt. Lydia has some really cute summer clothes and I can't wait for it to be warm enough for her to really start wearing them.
4- The last two weeks have been so full of things. We've been so busy and had a lot of fun things going, but for the life of my I can't remember anything else to be my #4 on todays post. (General Conference has it's own post and that's the other biggest thing that we did in the last week.) Some things that I thought of that didn't quite make the cut: -Red Ladder Design business has started to pick back up a little bit. I have a set of announcements in print, a consultation tomorrow, and another client that just sent me their pictures today. -We are anxiously waiting for the Children's Museum at Thanksgiving Point to open. Even more so, once we realized that the Children's Garden is now connected to the museum and so we can't go there until May 15th either. -I almost sold the green shutter that we bought for Melissa's wedding, but then decided that I want to hang it in my entryway. Now I need to go get the supplies to make it actually hang on the wall. It makes me really excited to start decorating the living room. -Now that it's getting warmer it's about time to get outside and start working on our yard. First things up: bring our bench and table up from the basement, get a fence to keep Lydia contained, figure out what we want to do with the walkway on the side of our house, plant a garden in the backyard! Also more boring things like go spray all the weeds in the grass, get some good fertilizer down, and figure out how to turn our sprinklers back on.
5-Today is David's half-birthday. It may seem like a silly thing, but I love the chance to celebrate whenever I can - especially when I'm celebrating my handsome husband. Before he left for work I made him some half-pancakes and half-bacon. (Meaning, I made pancakes and bacon and cut them in half.) I have a little gift for him to open tonight and I even called my nephew last minute to come watch Lydia while we go out to dinner and go treadmill shopping. (We've been wanting to do that for some time, and this was the perfect excuse to help me finally make the call to get a babysitter.) I'm looking forward to spending the evening with David and celebrating his half-birthday!
Update: This afternoon we went to the Gardens with the Cooper crew. Lydia and Elsie were being so cute and I just had to include these pictures (complements of Ashley because I haven't uploaded mine from my camera yet). Aren't they darling and the sweetest friends? It almost makes me forget the headache of chasing Lydia all around the pond to make sure she didn't jump in while she was following the goose.
