Date Night

They don't seem to happen very often, but this date night was sure needed!  Dropped the kids off at the in-laws, and headed off to a yummy dinner at Bella Citta.  It was a cute little Italian Bistro.  Check out my hot date...phone in hand of course, I do believe he was posting a picture a me (his hot date) on Facebook!  

 Started off with some amazingly delicious tomato basil bisque soup.  Mmmm!

 Followed by a yummy panini

 And of course some gelato!

 Soooo  many flavors to choose from!

 After dinner we went to Old Navy to exchange some shirts for the boys and I ended up scoring a swimsuit for $2 for our upcoming anniversary weekend away!!

Sometimes...

Sometimes it's nice to get flowers...even if they really are just a handful of pretty weeds that were picked on a scout activity just because.

Love you, Joshy!!  :)

Utah State Fair 2010

The kids (the girls anyway) always look forward to going to the state fair every September.  We have done it every year since Jeni was a year and a half (2003) so this was our 8th time going!!  It gets quite repetitive, but it's worth it for the kids to have fun!  Usually we go up to Josh's work and pick him up, go get some dinner, and then enjoy an evening at the fair.  But to save some $ this year I made these delicious chicken sandwiches and some fries and we ate those at Josh's work before heading to the fair.  Not much to write about, so enjoy some pictures of our family fun!

 (the girls were a little bummed that they have outgrown the wagon and the boys now get it)

 (it's tradition to be measured here every year...so fun to see how we have grown...well...the kids anyway)

 (and we always have to get cotton candy...the boys like feeding it to us more than to themselves)

 (love the beard)

kitty

Our neighbors next door got some kittens, they live in their garage and come over to play with the kids quite a bit.  They have all grown quite fond of the cute little kitty.  She is the sweetest little thing and I love that she put up with the boys dragging her all over our yard!  Here's Kiki loving her...

....and here is my bad mommy moment...I think that these are all of Julian, but I may be wrong.  The boys are looking more and more alike that it is harder to tell them apart in pictures.  I should start buying more coordinating clothes just so I can tell them apart!  Cute pics anyways!  :)

 ok...i guess I am an ok mama...I know that this last picture is Jonathan!  :)
