New Taupe Boots.

As an early birthday present to myself I got these beauties.
Shoedazzle had an awesome sale last week (thanks Bri for letting me know) 
and I was able to score these great boots for $17! 
I love a good shoe bargain.
I am continually amazed with the quality and comfort of ShoeDazzles shoes. 
I will definitely be a long time customer. 

Wore this out tonight on an early birthday dinner date with the Hubby.





We left Hunter home with a non-family babysitter for the first time.
It was a success. 
Hunter didn't even notice we were gone.
He LOVED Sydney.
We will absolutely be going LOTS more dates.


Glad we got to sneak out tonight since its going to be FREEZING this weekend.
We are going to be staying inside, drinking hot cocoa and watching movies.


What are you doing this weekend?

worst Blogger ever.


20 days since I last blogged?!
Blah.
I should be fired.

It has been a crazy three weeks but I am excited to be back and update you all on that has been happening with The Fords.

After my dad and then my sister McKenna both visited Utah in the beginning of the month, it was only fair that my mama came for a stay as well.
She arrived by train on Wednesday May 8th and stayed until Monday the 13th.
It was AMAZING to have her here and we had so much fun.
Hunter was just a LITTLE excited to have his Grandma here.




We enjoyed a few days of complete relaxation. Staying in our PJ's all day, watching TV shows, drinking Diet Coke and enjoying being together.

On Friday we went to the Beehive Bazaar handmade craft event and Sundance for lunch.


We obviously LOVE Sundance.
(We go EVERY TIME my parents are here)
Right when we got there Daniel was ending his shift (both my sister and her husband work at Sundance) so he was able to join us for lunch.
We sure Love Aubrey & Daniel and are so glad they live close and that we get to see them often.











Probably one of my FAVORITE photos ever. He ADORES his Grandma.
Sunday was Mothers Day.
My FIRST Mothers Day.
It was PERFECT.
Of course It was extra special because my mom was here.
What better way to spend Mothers Day then with my mother and the one who made me a mother.

Our day started with Breakfast in Bed.
Kevin's famous french toast.



The weather was beautiful Sunday afternoon.
Perfect for a mini mommy photo shoot.

(Sad I didn't get a photo with my mommy)

Aubrey came over to celebrate Mothers Day with us and Daniel joined us later in the evening for games! 
Dinner was delicious.
Tri-tip (that marinated for three days), potatoes, corn, homemade rolls and a white carmel macadamia nut cheesecake.

Mom went home Monday night.
How come time flies so fast when you are having so much fun?!
We had an incredible week hanging out with the family.
One of our FAVORITE parts was the many late night games of HEADS UP. 
Have you heard of this new game?
It's basically charades with your iPhone.
It records you and it is absolutely HILARIOUS. 
It's available in the apple app store.
Download it NOW. 
So worth it.
Many a family memories made.
Selfie. Not a self breast examination. 

After mom left the three little Fords were sick.
Really Sick.
Mom left Monday and for the next 7 days our home needed to be quarantined.
Coughing, sneezing, runny noses and poor Hunter got the WORST rash I have ever seen.
All week we stayed inside trying to SURVIVE and going a little stir crazy.
















It wasn't until Saturday afternoon that we were able to leave the house.

A late brunch at The Crepe Co and a walk around the GORGEOUS BYU campus was about all we could handle but it was so nice to get some fresh air.

It's a new week and we are all feeling a little better.

Headed to St. George this weekend for some sun and a little family vaca.
Hope everyone has a great week.

McKenna is Here + Day 2 of B.E.D.I.M.

My sweet sister McKenna is here from Sacramento for BYU Women's Conference this weekend.
This afternoon my sister Aubrey and I kidnapped her and we had a sisters afternoon eating Zupas for lunch and shopping at The Traverse Mountain Outlets. 







It's so fun to have McKenna here.
I sure love that girl.
So proud of everything she is doing and the choices she is making.
She bought a beautiful Coach wallet today that I just might have to "borrow" sometime.
Love you Mickey G.

Day 2- May 2nd: Educate us on something you know a lot about or are good at. 
The original post said that this topic could be serious, funny, educational or sarcastic.
I am gonna go with RANDOM.

I am a CELEBRITY know it all
It's kinda silly but I can honestly tell you ANYTHING about ANY CELEBRITY that's been in the news in the last handful of years.
I don't know where it comes from. 
I don't spend hours a day reading gossip magazines or watching celebrity reality shows.
It just happens from occasional channel surfing, Good Morning America watching and browsing the magazine cover pages while waiting to check out at the grocery store.
But once I see or hear it, the information sticks like GLUE to my brain.
Kevin is always surprised that I know who celebrities are married to, or just had a baby. 
I know who attended award shows and what they wore. 
And I know who is going crazy or who just bought a 17 million dollar home.
It's not useful information.
It doesn't make me smarter.
I Wish I could take that part of my brain that stores all of this information and fill it with something cooler like awesome recipes or things I read in books. 

Maybe it's a memory thing.
Kevin has said that I am very good at remembering dates and events and lyrics.
 Yea... let's go with I have an AWESOME Memory.
I guess I can live with that.
