Happy Birthday Sheldon Ray!

Sheldon is 25! We celebrated the whole weekend and had lots of fun. On Friday I took Sheldon to our favorite Thai food restaurant downtown SLC and then we went on a 4x4 drive up to Bountiful peak, which was beautiful! On Saturday we went to Lagoon and rode the new ride WICKED; that was quite the adventure, a scary adventure. Finally, on Sunday we had a get together with family.

This year I decided to make Sheldon 2 homemade cakes because he had picked them out of one of my cooking magazines a month ago; this was quite an adventure too! One was a butter pecan cake which I was not a fan of, but Sheldon loved it. The second was a strawberry cream dessert, which was actually pretty good. I was just glad that Sheldon liked them both and had a good birthday weekend. Here are some pictures of our activities :)

Silly Sheldon!

The other day Sheldon was running and when I walked into the room to talk to him this is what I found....

He had literally cut the sleeve off his T-shirt and put the sleeve on his head for a sweat band. HAHA

I was laughing so hard, and he was pretty embarrassed. This is how dang funny Sheldon is. This is half the reason why I married him. He can always make me smile and laugh even on the gloomiest of days!

Farewell Rebecca, we will miss you :(

Despite all our differences, my sister and I share one passion-social work. This past weekend Becca moved to New York to pursue her Master's degree in Clinical Social Work at NYU.

As sad as we are to see you go, we wish you the best of luck. Your journey will be hard and long but we know you can do it! We will miss you and love you very much. MAKE US PROUD!!!

The Adventures of Packing Rebecca...if you knew her you would understand but she always seems to make sense of the chaos!!! haha

Saying good-bye at the airport :(sniffle, sniffle):

Becca's Good-bye BBQ

I am not saying good-bye yet! I was just finally able to get pictures of my siblings together, and this will be the last time in a long while.

LAKE POWELL, we miss you!

Sheldon and I vacationed at Lake Powell with friends this last week. This was Sheldon's first time ever and he loved it. The weather was hot, but beautiful;one day we were told the temp. reached 106 degrees! We had a blast spending time with everyone-thanks for the adventure everyone! And a special thanks to Michelle and Marie for giving us this opportunity!!! Here are some, OK a lot, of photos. ENJOY ;D

Fishing

I caught my first fish ever! The fishing trip began with Sheldon and Dan teaching me how to use a fishing pole. The fishing trip ended with only one fish caught by me. Sheldon was very proud, but I think Dan was pretty resentful-sorry Dan! Even though we didn't catch much we had a great day.

Weekend Biking

This weekend's ride was a challenge, but we had a blast! However, Sheldon lost his position as the leader. He sometimes fails to remember that bikes do not have brake lights like cars which can create a problem when I am going full speed behind him and he stops! Sheldon would also like everyone to know that I also experienced my first biff of the year. The sad thing was that I wasn't even riding! We were walking our bikes down a VERY steep slope with boulders that lead into a river. As I was walking down the slope my bike over took me and I went down with it-OUCH! Sheldon laughed and thought it was very comical; I agree it was pretty dang funny.
