SurPrisE !!

last night we went to go have a surprise party for our friend Jason who was turning 30!!
seems like more and more of our friends are joining the club ;0)
anyways, i think it was a hit. i am pretty sure that he had no idea there was anything planned.
 here he is with his sister and son walking through the door. 
SURPRISE!!
 we had the party at our other friends house the Marcums, or as our kids call them, The Markers.
they have two adorable dogs. Briea fell in love with Rocky. He was so good. He would just let her love on him and follow him around.
 We had a nice time chatting and enjoying the YUMMY salsa Trisha had made.
 After dinner of course it was time for cake. Here is Jason's wife Becca bringing the cake out to him.
 it took a couple tries but he got them all out. ;0)
 here is the party crowd minus me. i don't mind taking the pictures ;0)
 after we took the group picture a few people had to leave. so when we went back inside we opened presents. can you tell how excited the boys are. they were right there wanting to help. our gift was a little different and home made. However the kids and I had a fun time putting it together.
I saw a version of this online and thought it was cute. Its our family, wishing Jason Happy 30th! The kids thought it was Hilarious!
 After presents we all just sat around and chatted for a little longer. It was nice to get to just hang out and let the kids play. I feel like we rarely get together with friends.
see, this just proves how much fun we had. Ayla just passed right out while Trisha was holding her. 
Thanks so much for such a fun evening friends!!
ps. Happy 30th Jason!

I love the saying "the best thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother". My husband does an amazing job of that. I am truly married to my best friend. We laugh often and try to see the best in every situation, or at least find the humor in it. We have four beautiful children. Cullan (7) Kael (6) Briea (3) and Ayla (2). We are currently living in Illinois while Garran attends Grad School. He is a talented print maker and is enjoying his time here. He has a website if you are interested. www.garrangillespie.com Right now we are living every day to the fullest and trying to have as much fun as possible along the way!!

This explains why I blog so much RIGHT?

“Your journal is your autobiography, so it should be kept carefully. You are unique, and there may be incidents in your experience that are more noble and praiseworthy in their way than those recorded in any other life. …
“What could you do better for your children and your children’s children than to record the story of your life, your triumphs over adversity, your recovery after a fall, your progress when all seemed black, your rejoicing when you had finally achieved?”
Elder Spencer W Kimball!

I need to read this every morning!

"It isn't as bad as you sometimes think it is. It all works out. Don't worry. I say that to myself every morning. It all works out in the end. Put your trust in God, and move forward with faith and confidence in the future. The Lord will not forsake us. He will not forsake us. If we will put our trust in Him, if we will pray to Him, if we will live worthy of His blessings, He will hear our prayers."

-President Gordon B. Hinckley
