Post Secret

I found this blog that has people mail them their secrets that they've written onto homemade postcards. Some are funny, some are heartbreaking, and some are profound. It's the most amazing thing.

I had a couple of examples on here, but I've removed them as it just feels wrong, because they're not mine.

Some of the postcards do have inappropriate images and language, so if you're avoiding that please don't visit the site.

Little fingers,












Little toes,













Little mouth,
and little nose,












So small and yet
you mean to me

more than you
may ever see.

Quote of the week

Jessie's husband, Joe, was telling me that all he needed to restore his really annoying vintage alarm clock to life were 9-volt batteries.

Jessie responded: "It takes 9-volt batteries? I'm pretty sure those are bad for the baby."

Three birthday cakes can't be wrong!

If this birthday was any indication, 24 will be an amazing year!
With three cakes, who could doubt it?

I had an amazing birthday weekend. Here's the breakdown:



Jessie made me a spongy vanilla cake on Friday night and even had my favorite ice cream to go with it:






On Saturday morning Michael, Adam, Mom, Amy Jo, Jillian and I went to the aquarium in Sandy. Then we went to the Harvest restaurant at Thanksgiving point to have lunch. For dessert we had chocolate cake.



Then Lauren made me an amazing dinner of spring rolls and oriental beef, and crowned it all off with an amazing cake with strawberries and whipped chocolate frosting! Then we played her Wii until it was time to go home.






Sunday was also full of fun, Jessie and Joe came over for morning session of conference and we made a huge breakfast full of protein and cholesterol! Then we went to Michael's parent's house for afternoon session and some salmon. Then we went to Jose's house to watch I Am Legend with the alternate ending, and had hot dogs "completos," compliments of his amazing chef parents.

We are tired but happy! Thanks everyone for my best birthday yet!
