Song

For anyone who may be wondering why this song is on my play list, I'll tell you. Jay was humming some song a couple weeks ago. He's like "They play this song on the radio all the time. It reminds me of you." I had no idea what song he was talking about because my radio has been taken over by Thomas the Train and a random Christmas cd that Noah can't let go of. Anyway, I'm like, "Sing it! I want to know what about it makes you think of me..." He proceeds to sing it and I haven't the faintest what he's talking about. I make it a point to turn on the radio the next day on my way to the grocery store. What do you know? It's playing on the radio. I listened to the words and almost cried. So, I smother my husband with hugs and kisses. THEN, I log onto the blog and ta-da... he put the song on here as a reminder. Sweet, huh?

Sampling

Sampling is what Noah does best. Jay is on a kick of exploring all the self-serve frozen yogurt places around and Noah is loving every minute of it. These places will give you a little sample cup to try the flavors before you decide what you want. As soon as we walk in, Noah says "Cup please!" Here are the two frozen yogurt lovers sitting on the curb with their sample cups.

Birthday Boy!!

We had a super fun time with friends (Jenna and John: you guys are friends and family) tonight celebrating Jay's 33rd Birthday!! We even bartered some of our lemon cupcakes for a huge slice of their chocolate fudge cake - mmm mmm mmm! Happy Birthday, my love! I'm so blessed to have you as my best friend and husband!

Jay's Baptism

This afternoon I was serving in the child care area while Jay attended service. He comes up to my room afterward and says, "I'm going to get baptized...right now!" The girls insisted that I cut out early to witness this awesome moment. I asked him what happened that he decided that today was the day? He said he has felt it weighing on his heart for the longest time and felt it was time to obey. It sure was special...

Fun

Jay and Noah played hide and seek in Noah's tent this morning.

Monster Jam

Noah gave Jay Monster Jam tickets for Christmas so they could go out and have some daddy/son time together. Jay said the first half went really well, but Noah didn't want to sit very still for the second half. Luckily, Noah had Gabe to entertain him.
Overall, they had a great time and would definitely go back next year!

More fun!

We also went to AZ Mills. Jay and Noah both spotted the carousel this time and just HAD to ride.

Happy Birthday to My Forever Love!

Today we celebrated Jay's 32nd birthday with our family. Jay's favorite dessert is lemon meringue pie, so Mimi made two of those so there would be extra for him to snack on all week. I made chocolate dipped strawberries, and Poppy also picked up a super moist coconut cake. Everything was so good! We had a ton of fun hanging out and telling stories. We always enjoy the special time we get to share with our family.

Happy Birthday Jay! Part 1

Tonight we celebrated Jay's birthday with all of our best friends. We had such an awesome time! It's difficult to do this often since we all have families and many other obligations, but it meant a lot to both of us that everyone made an effort to come. Whose birthday is next??
