another month gone...

Can you believe that april has come and gone? Things have been very busy for us but that is a good thing considering my mental state hee hee. Tanner is one year older, taller, and in charge if you ask him! I just wanted to drop a little note saying hi and that we are still here in the windy city of Idaho Falls! We hope that everyone is doing great....healthy and happy. Pictures will soon follow just wanted to say hi!

Happy Birthday Tanner!

My little boy turned 4 years old on April 5th!! This was the first year that he actually understood it was his birthday. We started off the weekend with taking cupcakes to his pre-school class, opened presents the morning of his birthday, got him a jamba juice (his favorite!!), took him to his favorite place to eat--primos--, then took him to see Horton hears a Who! Then sunday we went up to his grandma and grandpa Nichol's house and had a party! He loved every minute of his weekend and Mark and I really enjoyed spoiling our little boy!

 

This year I decided to make a special birthday cake and am pretty proud of myself! hee hee The problem is that next year I will have to do bigger and better...what did I get myself into??!! AHH
