Thirty-Six

Last week was birthday week! Kyle and I are 36 and we celebrated all week long. Monday night we had birthday cake for Kyle (Thank you Kyle DeVaney). While I was gone over the weekend his friend, Christian, door dashed ice cream to him too.

I love this picture so much! Kasen always worrying about someone getting hurt and making sure Kolt doesn't touch fire and Mommy Tai trying to keep Kohen from blowing out Kyle's candles!

Tuesday night we went to the temple and I was reminded of how there are always more blessings than burdens and that we can always find joy regardless of what is happening in our lives when we focus on Jesus Christ. And how much I just love Kyle! We even got to go to dinner at Olive Garden afterwards.

Friday afternoon Mom Tammy took me out to lunch for my birthday and we got some Thai food at Aroon Thai Kitchen. They didn't have mango sticky rice though! Bummer.

That night we went on a date to Tucanos with Kyley and Jordan for our free birthday meals. Hayden and Karissa surprised us and came to dinner too. Kyle always orders passion fruit mousse, but they didn't have any spoons to take to go. Jordan went and took one of their soup spoons for us though! Our new birthday dessert spoon, shhhhh....

After dinner we went to see the documentary, "Am I a Racist?" and Kyley made me cookies for my birthday!

My parents watched the kids for us so when we got home Annette had the table all decorated for my birthday the next morning! So nice of her. When I woke up the next morning, Kyle had French toast made for breakfast. Delicious!

And Kohen picked me some flowers.

Later, we went to go drive the Alpine Loop to see the fall leaves and walk around Cascade Springs. Along with the rest of the state! The DeVaney's met us up there, but there we SO many people. I don't ever remember crowds being there when I've been before. And they cut down the branch that Kyle and I hung on when we went there before our missions!

2000ish

We stopped in the canyon for a picnic though and then on the way home we picked up Tapa Sushi for dinner.

With Kazookie's for dessert! 

My Grandma Judy called and sent me a birthday card, Heidi brought me a Mango Swig drink, Kelsey dropped off cookies and I have lunch dates all next week.

I have the best friends and family that make my birthday so fun! Thank you everyone!

*Update:

Emma took me out for sushi, Ashley brought kolaches to the park, Heidi took me to Village Baker and Colette brought me Costa Vida to the park. Earlier this month Becca bought me lunch at Zupas too.

The best friends!
