Stephanie's 36th Birthday

A BIG dream of mine came true, even more awesome that it happened on MY 36th Birthday!

Myself and these amazing ladies went to THE KELLY CLARKSON ~MEANING OF LIFE TOUR

It was so amazing! Seriously one of the best nights of my life. It was everything I hoped and dreamed it would be and more. My friends were such amazing company. Kelly was SO Amazing. She was kind, funny, real, beautiful, and her voice was stunning. Her opening acts were awesome too. The entire experience was so so fantastic. I cried, danced, laughed, and sang my heart out. 

I found the song set and created my own playlist with the exact songs so I can relive the night over and over again. 

Our seats were pretty amazing!!!

Before the show we went to a yummy pizza place. 

For lunch I had my favorite treat, Arbys!

The next day I took off to rest. I went to the temple with my Mom and enjoyed some relaxing time to myself for a few hours. 

Lars got me some beautiful flowers. 

I felt so spoiled and loved. I appreciated all the love extended to me. It was an awesome pick me up I was in need of. Thanks everyone!!

LiVe Well Hero

At my job I have this extra title, A LiVe Well Champion. In this role I execute LiVe Well Activities and stay up to date on things my employer is doing to promote all around healthy living. Its a lot of fun. Each year they have a LiVe Hero award they give to people who are nominated. Well I was nominated and i won an award and delicious lunch and got to hear other winners speak about what they do to inspire others to LiVe Well. It was awesome and I am so honored and proud to be one of them. Lars came with me to the fancy lunch and took pics. 

Swan dessert. :)

Roan 7th Birthday!

My little buddy Roan turned 7. \

Currently he is 

73 lbs

54.5 inches (4.5 feet)

Favorite food: Panda Express, Del Taco, Costco pizza, Macaroni & Cheese

He is off the charts in growth and is the size of a 10 year old

We celebrated by throwing a movie themed birthday party. Roan loves to go to the movies so we brought the movies home. 

Roan made the movie reel out of Legos

The after spread

We had a lot of fun and played a marshmallow throwing game, ate delicious food, then watch a fun movie. 

Then I took Roan to our local Smiths where Bruce treated us to a big pile of ice cream and a song on his trumpet. Something we look forward to every year. It was sweet to get some one on one time with him. I talked to him about the day he was born and all the feelings I had then and how proud of the kind boy he has grown to be. 

Roan's writing on a toy he really wanted. 

Lars wanted to get him some special toys that he had when he was a boy. Marbles and army men. 

We had a birthday celebration a week later with all the Grandparents at Pizza Pie Cafe. 

Happy Happy Birthday little buddy!
