HaPpY BiRtHdAy JJ!!

Saturday night at Keys on Main was thee place to be!! JJ's spectacular birthday party!! Everyone had a great time and most people drank way too much, except me however, who had the fun (and I mean that...it really was fun) job of being the designated driver! Party-goers (that I knew) included....JJ and Casey (she had to leave though), Amber and TJ, Bradley, Al and myself! It was a great time....songs were sung, cupcakes were eaten, drinks were drank, Amber danced (on my lap!!), and JJ was sung to onstage!
FUN, FUN, FUN....Thanks for having a birthday JJ!! Many happy returns!

More pics of the party!!

Girls and Little Boys Day Out!!

A few weeks ago, Cameron and Parker took the girls (my mom, my sister and I) out to lunch at the Cheesecake Factory.
It was our first time there and we were amazed as we walked in to see the display case full of every type of cheesecake you could ever imagine!! I wasn't planning on eating any cheesecake, but how could I resist the temptation that was staring me in the face...calling my name..."Kimi, you know you want to have just one little piece of one of us!" So, I gave in and took a "little" piece of the banana cheesecake home. I couldn't have possibly eaten it after the ginormous navajo chicken sandwich I had just eaten! DELICIOUS!!
YUMMY!!!
The boys were being cute and having fun. It was a great day out!

Thomas & Friends!

My wonderful little boy just LOVES Thomas the Tank Engine, so when his grandma saw that he was coming here to SLC "Live on Stage", well, she immediately called for me to buy some tickets!
So, last night was the night of the BIG SHOW. Cameron had so much fun! At first, he wasn't too sure of the big trains (with big eyes that moved and mouths that actually talked), but he quickly came around to liking them.
I went in thinking that it would probably be kinda dumb, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was well done and definitely kept the kids attention! Audience participation was encouraged and once in a while, Cam would shout out something (I still have a bit of a hard time translating his dialect) and do some of the train actions with his arms. It was really cute!
He, of course, got spoiled with a new T-shirt, a plate and a crazy straw! He was in heaven seeing all of his favorite trains....Thomas, Gordon, Percy and James! It was a great night out with Cameron and grandma!

My Trip to Walgreens

So, I have had amazing deals before at Walgreens, but this one takes the cake for me! I got....2 jumbo packs of Huggies, a giant pack of Huggies wipes, 4 12 packs of Coke products, a Glade lasting impressions holder, a Glade Sense and Spray holder, 2 cans of almonds, 1 aquafresh, a bottle of Jet Dry, a box of Electrasol gelpacs, some Garnier Fructis hair gel, a deoderant and 3 packs of gum! I had $9 of register rewards to use with all of my coupons. I also had a gift card from Walgreens rebates of $19. My final total came to $12. I then got back $15 in register rewards and I claimed $1 on a rebate, therefore bringing my grand total to.....-$4! I made a profit of $4 on all of this stuff! I was paid to buy this stuff! Pretty cool. Just had to share it with people that will appreciate it as much as I did.

I Want To Go Back & See It All Again!!

It has been nearly 3 years since my family and I traveled to the Mediterranean and I think it is already time for me to go back and see it all over again! We visited Rome, Venice, Naples, Pompeii, Barcelona, Dubrovnik, Sicily, Capri, Sorrento and Cannes. It was the trip of a lifetime!

Since I have been daydreaming about it lately, I just thought I would share some of the beauty with all of you. So, I have uploaded just a few the pictures below so you too can dream of being in those anciently amazing places!

Picture Tag #2

This picture is for my 2nd picture tag!!

This is my sister-in-law, Mandy, with her new baby and my newest niece, Claire. This was on Thanksgiving of last year. Cameron is checking out his new little cousin. She is such a cutie!! She was just about a week old in this picture, so now she is 3 months old and getting even cuter by the minute!!

I'm not going to tag anyone again...this could get ridiculous.

Picture Tag #1

I seem to be caught in a game of endless picture tag!! It sounds like lots of fun, so here I go. This is my picture tag #1 for Angie! My 6th folder is my birthday folder and the 6th picture is described below.

This is my sweet nephew, Carter. It was his 6th birthday party. He turned 6 on January 2nd. We had a great time at his birthday, eating Spongebob cake and smacking around a pinata! He is such a cutie and he is a super nice & very sweet kid!

Now, I have very few friends with blogs, so guess what? I'm tagging some of you again! I'm tagging.....Nikki, Angie, Deanna, Morgan and JoDee. This could go on forever, so if you don't want to do it, I will understand. However, if you want to keep playing, this time post the 2nd picture in your 5th folder!

Amazing Deal!

If you haven't already checked it out, you should definitely go to http://www.restaurant.com/. Every once in a while I will check it out to see if there are any restaurants worth going to and last night, I hit the jackpot.

I recently visited the Pleasant Valley Grill (located at the Pleasant Valley Golf Course by the Adams Parkway toll road) and I absolutely loved it!! It was so yummy! Anyway, as I was looking through the local eaterys, low and behold....there it was! So, here is the deal. I purchased 4 $25 gift certificates (that is $100 worth of gift certificates) for $8!!! They were $2 each when you use the coupon code DINE! Can you believe that? The only stipulation for these certificates, is that in order to use the $25 certificate, your bill has to come to at least $35. Not a problem. You can only use one per party and one per month. Also not a problem!!

So, if you haven't already, check them out....the website and the restaurant!! Happy searching and happy eating!!!
