Happy Belated Birthday Blog

Back to school time was so busy I forgot to do a lot of things.  One was post Abby’s birthday.  I have also missed blogging about Cordell’s so I’ll just give them both a belated birthday post.

Abby turned 7 and is so excited that this is her last year before she get’s baptized.  We always ask her why she is excited to be getting baptized and the answer remains the same “so that I can get the Holy Ghost”.  I thought she’d say so she can have a new dress, have a small celebration in her honor, so everyone can celebrate her big day but nope.  I guess my priorities at that age were a little different that hers are now.  I’m proud of her.  She is a great example to her family.  Happy Birthday sweet daughter!

Cordell celebrated his own “last year” of…should I even say?  Will he kill me?  If so then this is the last post you’ll see from me.  This is his last year in his….here I go….his 30’s!  Yep, he turned 39!  Last year to live it up!  Maybe now I understand the facial hair, the strong desire for a new mustang and wanting to go to Disneyland.  All good memories from his youth that he can enjoy before the big 40!  I kid because I love him.  We’ll all the there one day or another.  So this is your year my love!  Live it up and let me grant you any wish you desire.  You deserve it because you are a great husband, a fabulous father, an amazing man and life would not be the same with out you!  I LOVE you!

Weekend Away

I know it’s been a few weeks but better late than never I guess.  We took a vacation to Monterey for both business and pleasure.  Cordell had a conference there so we all went a long to enjoy the scenery and a little town we’d never been to.  I must say it was quite a joy.  The weather was so nice and the view of the ocean was amazing.  We spent two days at the Aquarium and the kids could not get enough of it.  I was amazed with all the different exhibits they had.  Walkers favorite was the sharks, Abby loved the pink jelly fish and I couldn’t get enough of the different sea horses that were there.  If you haven’t been you really should put this on your list of things to do before you die.
