Fro-YO!

So as you may have heard, I turned the big 3-0 this week (sniff-sniff), and so I got to choose where I wanted to go for my b-day treat! I of course chose my favorite frozen yogurt place on the planet...Cherry on Top! And it is only a mere 47.85 miles from my house (um, so that's like 100 miles round trip!) I honestly and truly have the BEST girlfriends on the PLANET cause they all rallied and took me there Tuesday night:) Can I just say it was TOTALLY worth the drive!!!! Thanks ladies for the best b-day EVER!

Oh No! 3-0!

The dreaded day has (almost) ARRIVED!!! I am (as of 12:00am on July 20th) THIRTY YEARS OLD!! I swear I am still sixteen in my mind! HA! It honestly and truly FREAKS me out when I realize that I have been married for 10 years, I have 3 kids and a mortgage! Where did the time GO???

But seriously, I could not have asked for a better birthday party than the one I had last night! As Roy put it, "It's a 'All of Kelly's favorite things' party", and it really WAS!

~Lunch afterwards at Carl Strauss Brewery (I know, we just went to the temple, right!? ha!)

The Temple. Wow.

So neat to get to see my Aunt Jayme go through the Temple for the first time. I can only tell you that there is a peace that is felt inside the temple that you can find NOWHERE else and I feel so blessed to have access to it:) I honestly expect them to stop me at the entrance and shake their heads and turn me away...but somehow they don't and I'm allowed inside:) Every-time  I go I wonder why I don't do it more often?! I need to be better. I vow to be better. 

I love my Eternal Family:)

Independence Day

This 4th of July was really one of the best I can remember! We didn't do really anything spectacular, but just being with friends and family made the day awesome! We pretty much just let the kids swim their guts out (Vanner took his first dip in the pool!) then headed to In-n-Out for dinner (2nd annual trip there on the 4th! I highly recommend it!!) followed by fireworks @ the Four Seasons in La Costa (they do a fabulous show!!!). Happy Birthday America:)

Bullseye!

Well done Van. Well done.
