Woo hoo!! Looks like you had a fun birthday :) Hope it was a good one! (Gosh we're old!) and I totally remember you buying those Hershey's eggs and we'd be sneaky and eat them during choir ;)
Yes Kristen, that is a 'Big Bang Theory' quote, along with a 'Battlestar Galactica', and 'Scrubs'. (They are all things I have had as my status on facebook, my sister is funny!)
Happy Birthday to you guys! So fun that K made the cake. She has to check out a blog site called cake wrecks. I am sure she would get a kick out of it. I have loved your posts about how much you love each other, so sweet. I am glad my cousin ended up with someone who adores her!
Happy belated birthday! And that rock paper scissors lizard spock was funny! You'll wonder where the time has flown when you are registering your BABY for kindergarten too!

It's been awhile since I really blogged. There are a few reasons for that, but I will get into that in a bit. I just need to recap the last week or so. Pat & I don't really celebrate Valentine's day since our birthday's are before and after it. It's always nice to be together and luckily he had the evening off. We were able to get together with Morri & Liza and kids and went to dinner at Training Table (yummy). We then just hung out at their house for the evening and were able to come home at a reasonable time to get the kids to bed. While on the way home Mara fell asleep in the car, which happens a lot more now that she doesn't nap anymore. Amazingly this time, when Pat got her out of the car she stayed asleep!! He sat with her on the couch for a minute, put her down, and we were able to change 1/2 of her clothes too, all while she was sleeping!! I even got a diaper on her! She did wake up a bit when we put her in her bed. I was just so amazed that she slept through it all! Here is a pic after we changed her clothes, Xander even put her bear on her chest and told me that he was nice when he did it!![Image]On Sunday the 15th, we celebrated mine & Pat's birthday's with my family. He got this awesome Skeletor that is a remake of the original! [Image]Karri got us Battlestar Galactica Dog Tag of our favorite characters!!Pat got Lee 'Apollo' Adama[Image] I got Galen 'Cheif' Tyrol - He's my favorite Cylon!! [Image]My mom got me a new Disney Precious Moments figure of Snow White and the Prince. [Image] Karri works in the bakery at Target and decided to make a cake for me & Pat![Image] She decorated the sides for each of us, and even made the cake half chocolate & half yellow cake!! It was so huge and yummy. We were still eating it 3 days later![Image][Image] A close up of Snow White & The Prince [Image] I was so excited to find my favorite Easter candy at Target this week. But the packaging is different this year so I almost missed it! [Image] With some of my birthday money I got this fun ribbon holder! Too bad I need to go back and get 2 more! LOL[Image] On Friday (my birthday) we had tickets to go to the Draper Temple Open House with my mom, Karri, and Grandma Joan. Mara fell asleep on the way up.[Image]It was nice to be there with the kids, but there were so many people that the tour was silent, so the kids were bored, and Xander was hungry and tired of walking. Next time we need to go in the middle of the week & earlier in the day, or just go without the kids![Image]After the temple we went to dinner at Chili's.[Image][Image]Thanks honey for a great birthday! I love you!!Okay, explanation: I have been trying to limit my time on the computer and have been doing really good at it. I finally pulled out my scrapbook stuff and have been working on that this week. But the major thing is that the laptop that I usually use is out of commission!! "What happened?" You ask? Well, here's the story. Background info: the laptop is not even 3 years old, but my mom got a new one so the old one became mine, and about 6 months ago the CD drive died, which is normally not a big deal for me because I didn't need it. Then the McAfee security came up for renewal but I didn't do it because of said CD drive. It's been doing just fine for the past 2 months, until Thursday! I was downloading some new scrapbook paper and there was a virus with it!!!! Luckily I was able to get all my files off of it without having the virus hitch a ride. So I have been limited to using a desktop computer that is out of the way and in my opinion, very inconvenient to use, and not to mention, slower then what I am used to. But my very nice and wonderful mom, is letting me use her new laptop so I don't feel so out of it. I just don't know what we are going to do with the old one. My brother is going to take a look at it and see what he can do, but we will probably have to take it somewhere to get the CD drive fixed first. I don't know if it's even worth it. So we'll see what happens. Ah, I feel much better now that I'm caught up.

Happy Birthday to both of you! It's neat that you can celebrate your birthdays together.
P.S. I love the Snow White and Price figurine - too cute!
