SLEEPOVER!

 The girls came to sleep over to give Carley some time to relax and catch up on sleep with baby Ryan. We played a whole bunch in two days!! We took them to Arctic Circle to eat and play in the Play Zone. 

They were in heaven! Especially with the dipped cones.

From Utah to Texas!

 Have you ever dreamed of that person you could LIVE, laugh, CRAFT, cry, HAVE GREASY HAIR AND NO MAKE-UP, workout, COOK, sit & do nothing, pound MACDON'S, SCAVENGE D.I., dress up, EAT, watch movies, American Idol bloopers and Desperate Housewives with....??? Well... We found each other on a Caribbean cruise and the rest is history! That is, until today.... which is THE saddest day ever really-- Our best friends move for the summer to manage alarm sales every year. I honestly dreaded this day coming! Shan and I just kept burying the subject since we didn't want to face the facts of not being inseparable for 5-6 months straight. The worst part about it was she got a surprise attack and needed to leave early to help in the office until the "office chic' arrived. Every week seemed harder knowing she would be leaving so maybe this is better-- and maybe it's worse?! I haven't quite decided yet. With not much to do than celebrate change we of hit up our favorite  
TEXAS ROADHOUSE!

Ben & Matt's Fav Joke when we think they are taking a pic of our face!

After a fab din we headed to her parents to say our good byes. 

Ben played with Ladd while Shan rounded up her last few things..

THEN... we said our good byes.We both hugged and cried like babies-- then cried all the way home! I just LOVE my bestie and pray this summer flies by only for the pure fact that.... one days down and I already miss her like crazy!! Thank goodness for the modern technology of Skype, Face Time, Text and Phone Chats!

Night out for the Ladies!

Jonathan and Carley needed to get to the Temple so I HAPPILY offered to take the girls for the night. We went to the Treehouse Museum in Ogden and had a blast.
