FarmCountry

Today Emery had to work all night, so I decided to take the kids to FarmCountry at Thanksgiving Point. It was the last $2 Tuesday so I figured I would take advantage of it. It wasn't too exciting, but Morgan liked looking at the animals andthey even had pony rides. She hated waiting in line, but once she got on her pony she loved it and didn't want to get off!

Park City



I forgot to put up these two pics from our trip to Park City...my camera battery died so I wasnt able to take more unfortunately. We had a good time, it was a pretty drive and I bought a couple things at the outlet stores. I loved this purple peace moose we saw!

Dinosaur Museum

Today we went to the Museum of Ancient life in Lehi. They were having a two buck tuesday promotion, so we though it would be a great time to visit, since we had wanted to go for a while now. I am so glad we did cause it was pretty neat. They have the largest collection of dinosaur bones in the western hemisphere, which is awesome! Some of the dinosaurs were so big I couldnt believe it...it kinda made me wish they werent extinct. Morgan loved it too and they had a few special kid sections that were fun for her. Sorry, there are a lot of pics, but I just had to share them!
There were also some pretty gardens nearby that we took a few pics at.

surgery update

I am currently in the hospital recovering from my surgery. It went pretty smoothly. Once I woke up from the anesthesia it hurt pretty bad, but once they got the pain medication going it was much better. I am not even in any pain right now. I am worried for when I go home tomorrow morning, because the pain meds wont be as strong, so I have no idea how I will feel. But I am very happy that I made the decision to get the surgery. I am pretty swollen and all bandaged up, so I can't wait to see the results. I will have the bandages removed in a week, but I will still be swollen. I am so lonely at the hospital. My friend was able to watch the kids this morning and afternoon, but Emery had to go back home to take care of them. Well, the drugs are making me super tired, so I will try to post another update tomorrow.

Glitter Toes!


Ok, so not too much going on, but I did go to a glitter toes party. I guess they are pretty popular here in Utah, but I had never been to one before. Jackie, my friend from church, had a bunch of girls from the neighborhood over and we all got our toenails done. They are acrylic so they will last for two months or so, which is awesome cause I hate painting my toenails! It was so nice to have a girl's night. I am really bad at making friends, but all the girls are so nice and fun, so I hope I am able to do things like this more often!

In other news, I go in for surgery Monday morning. It is so close! I am a little bit nervous, even though I know it will be fine. I just hope I am not in too much pain.

Oh, and today I got some cute letters to go above my fireplace. I love them! I need to find something to go behind them cause the picture doesnt work, but I am just using it to cover up the outlets for now. Any ideas? I am thinking about putting a big mirror back there, but I am not sure. Here is a close up of one of the letters cause you cant really tell what they look like from the other pic.
