Scrapbook USA

It's that time of year~ Girl's Weekend in Utah at Scrapbook USA!

Though the trip was short (flew in Thursday night and out Sunday afternoon) and sweet (saw some family), it was extremely rejuvenating and fun!

Here's the quick run-down of my weekend: saw Anne, shopped and scrapbooked with Tammy & Steph, yummy Cafe Rio, ran into random people from my past, completed 14 pages, yummy Tempanyaki, shopped for friends in TN, dessert and games with Brian and Family, breakfast with Jessica, Kaci & boyfriend, and church with Tammy. Lots to cram into a weekend, but well worth the time.

Waiting in line for Scrapbook USA to start!

Still waiting...

Tammy working hard (she finished 15 pages)

Steph's super intense... because she had to beat everyone with 16 pages done

Me and Best Friends


Can I just say that I have the best hubby in the world!?! He's the one that made the trip happen and stayed home with the cute crazies all weekend. Thank you honey!

Storytime at the Library

So I've started to feel like we are in a rut. Doing the same things everyday and not really having fun or enjoying it. So when one of our friends invited us to story time at the library, we decided to see what it was all about.

When we got there, I remembered why I didn't go to story time.... my children have such short attention spans and Nolan doesn't really like large groups. It ended up that we sat outside the reading room playing with the wooden train (which made Nolan and Ian very happy) while Dylan sat with the group.

Judging by the hats on the kids when they came out of the room, they read a book about firemen and their dogs. What was great about this was that there was a real firetruck outside for the kids to explore.

Nolan LOVED it!! He wanted to drive the truck so much that he kept cutting in line and I'd have to pull him back. We even waited until the very end after everyone else had left so that both Nolan and Dylan could drive the truck again!

Doesn't he make a cute little fireman?

RainForest Cafe & Glow Golf

One of our favorite places to take the kids is the Rain Forest Cafe. If you've never been, you need to go, just to experience it at least once. We are lucky enough to live so close to one here in Nashville that we've become frequent guests when we are trying to find somewhere to go that's fun and yummy.

Sorry the pictures are that great.... it's super dark there and the flash kept throwing everyone for a loop.



The other surprise for the day was to take the kids miniature golfing at Glow Golf. It is exactly what it sounds like~ golfing in the dark. Brennan and Dylan thought they were in heaven while Nolan just liked climbing and throwing the ball.

Rub a Dub Dub

4 boys in a tub!!!

Who'd have thought they'd all fit in together? Though Ian had to stand the entire time and didn't really like the bubbles, the boys had fun playing pirates and turtles (go figure) in the tub.

Acting Silly

Sorry. I couldn't help but post these pictures. Though there's no real story behind them other than they are just cute playing as little boys do.


Even with snot running down his face, isn't he just the cutest chunk you've ever seen?!

Got the Nerf gun and glasses... where did Dad go?


One of my favorite pictures of Nolan ever



And what are the big boys doing while the little ones are crazy? Playing with their DS's, of course!
