May 2024

 There is a crepe place here that I have always wanted to try but it closes really early in the day so we have never made it. They opened up a new location in a fancy food court kind of place and Richard took me on a date there for my birthday. Brooklyn helped him pick out one of my presents and OF COURSE it is Harry Potter themed. She helped me put it together- it's so fun to share our obsession :)


I also tried out a fancy cake for the first time. A very talented lady in our ward had made this cake for us before and it was one of the best cakes I've ever had so I decided to go for it. While my decorating skills are subpar, the cake was AMAZING. We all were fighting over the leftovers for days!

A few days later they also did cake decorating for a YW activity! They were assigned different scripture stories and I was very impressed with how creative the girls got with such hard topics. 

For Mother's Day, the girls made what is probably my favorite gift ever! They cut out big letters of M (heart) M and mod podged pictures of us together on each one. They all took a letter and chose what pictures they wanted and wrote a sweet message for me on it. I loved it so much!

Kaylee had her last viola concert in middle school! I've been surprised how much she has liked it and how good she has gotten when she hasn't ever taken private lessons. She is planning to keep playing in high school. 


I got to go on another solo trip to Utah, this time for a very special experience! But before I get to that, Holly and I both arrived about the same time and it was fun to hang out with her and go visit all the fam without all the kids. We also got to go to the Layton temple openhouse, which was really pretty, with Scott, Jen, Rachel, and Mom and Dad. 


We also went clothes shopping with Jen since she wanted some help picking out new pants. At Ross we found matching shirts for all of us and tried them on together. Not the best looking shirts but it made shopping for clothes a little more fun!


We were also lucky enough to be there for a big graduation party for Logan and Kai at Kristi's house. I can't believer they are old enough to graduate!! And for the main event- I'll save that for the June post since it was technically the 2nd day of June :)
