This my brothers nephew and niece! Aren't they cute! Brandon and her get along so well! Me and Jaci took them to the splash pool to play! The cutest thing was them playing Brandon's new favorite game ring around the rosie!

Dave's Birthday Week!

So things have been a little crazy at the Stringham house for the last couple of weeks. I think a round of this plague cold virus has gone around our house and at one point one of us has been sick!
I had to get a new car because we had 3 and we only need 2! So we traded in our cars and I got a new one and yes 3 days later a girl smashed into the side of me! That has been a delight since I now get to drive a rental car for 6-7 weeks~ But all is well!!! I am just happy Brandon was sitting behind me and not the side the car was impacted! Let's count our blessings!

So for Dave's big 29... he was still feeling a little bit under the weather so I decided I would give him a celebration throughout the week!

Tues- was Dave's B-day and I decorated the house of course and took him out to lunch where our little darling Brandon decided to spill 2 glasses of water!!! We had to leave a big tip and get out ASAP kids are so embarrassing! That night we had that so Bundt cake and I made Dave his fav dinner!
Wed- SINCE Dave was feeling somewhat better, I thought some fresh air would do us good. I planned a surprise to go up the canyon BBQ tinfoil dinners and s moors! My brother decided camper fuel is a good way to start a fire... and Dave went to light it ... and it exploded into a fireball! All I could scream was stop, drop, and roll. I literally thought he was going to look like a burn victim. Thank goodness it only singed off all of his arm hair, some eyelashes, and the side of the hair on his head! None of his skin was burned.

Thurs- We went to dinner with Dave's fam out in Bountiful at a yummy pizza place. His sister and parents definitely spoiled him!

Friday- This was un planned on my part but Dave really wanted to go to Cabellas were he was able to stock up on some of our fishing supplies!

Saturday- So this is the day that I really planned out! I told Dave that we were doing stuff to celebrate his B-day and he would just have to go with it! He really does not like not knowing or being surprised, so he was threatening he would not come! LOL! So first I took him out to lunch at this amazing restaurant @ the district called rumorz they let you choose the kind of fries you want! They have the best terryiaki chicken sandwich ever and I am not a chicken sandwich girl!!!
After that I dropped him off for a massage at the Aveda salon best massages/couple massages!
At this point I had 2 hours to take Brandon to Bountiful... by the time I got back Dave was waiting and then was confused why Brandon was not with us anymore! I could of at that point been like oh my heck I left him at the store... but I told him he was at g-ma's!!! So I started our drive up to Park City were I told Dave we had dinner reservations! I booked us a room at the Hotel Park City, my new favorite to die for place! That night we had reservations at Ruths Chris, Dave's favorite kind of food ever fillet minion done to perfection! After dinner we went and saw the other guys funny/ long and weird at some parts! But all in all I would say one of my favorite date nights!




Sunday- We got breakfast and then headed up to the Uintas and decided to hike bald mountain.
This was the rockiest trail I have ever been on. 5 miles of rock and climbing up rock, with 1000 foot cliffs on the sides of you! Lots of fun and worth the time if you aren't terrified of heights. You can see all of the Uintas it has some great views!

All in all we had a wonderful week and I think Dave enjoyed being spoiled and surprised! I am so grateful for my hubby!
