Finger Lickin' Good!!!

This pictures says it all...we went to Cerreta's Chocolate Factory yesterday and sampled lots of chocolate. Sariah was in heaven!!! Unfortunately when we went, they were not making chocolate so we just saw the machines but not how they work. We still had lots of fun and got some yummy chocolates.

They had this HUGE chocolate....

which lead to our next idea...to tour the Cardinals stadium.

So today, we headed over there and took a tour. It was tons of fun to see the locker room, the field and the CRAZY lofts that cost a RIDICULOUS amount of money per game. It is a HUGE stadium that has seats that can be added to make more room. After the tour, we headed to Gordon Biersch to eat some WONDERFUL garlic fries. We are really enjoying our vacation and spending time together as a family.

A GREAT DAY!!!

A HUGE thanks for Grandpa and Grandma for such a wonderful day. Sariah has been asking to see "papa" and "gama" all week. Luckily, they were headed out today to bring us a new couch so she got to spend the day with them. She wanted to go for a ride in Papa's truck but she decided that she would rather drive...

Next we headed out to lunch...Sariah was cold so "Papa" shared his jacket to keep her warm.

After naptime (which I will talk about in a minute) she played in her playroom with them. (Notice our new couch in the picture...THANKS CAROLYN!!!! & Dad and Mom!!!!)

Okay now naptime...Papa took her into her room and told her stories and was going to nap on the bed while she took her nap...although instead of her sleeping in her crib she slept on the bed with him!!!
Well tonight I put her in her cirb and went in to check on her and this is what I found...


SILLY GIRL!!!! Don't worry...I moved her to the crib so she does not roll off the bed. She is too cute. THANKS Dad and Mom for a GREAT day!!!

Princess

Poor Sariah was under the weather earlier this week so we had movie time. She has been really into princess movies lately so we decided to try out a new one and let her watch Cinderella. She has watched it over and over this week since then. She really likes it. She is such a girl!!! Babies, princesses, and purses are her favorite things!!!!

She looks so sad in this pictures. You can see she does not feel good...just look at her eyes. :(

Break

We are very excited around our house to have the next two weeks to just relax and spend time together. Yesterday Jake finished his first quarter of dental school. Jake did a great job with his classes and also balancing being a husband, father and still doing his school work. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband!!!
Mandy, Megan and I needed a girls night out so we headed to the movie "The Secret Life of Bees" while the boys (Erik, Adam, and Jake) stayed home and watched the kids. I am not really sure how well they watched the kids since this was the scene when we got home at 10:00pm....The best part of this picture (which is hard to see) is that Lila is totally asleep. Too cute!!! Thanks guys for letting us have a girls night out the first night of your break. It was fun and can't wait for more!!!

So today was the first day of family time so we headed out to do some shopping and then home for family naptime!!! It was wonderful!!! After naptime, we went to play at the cute bee park in our neighborhood. Sariah had tons of fun playing with Daddy.

Our Little Ladybug

Sariah had a really good time this year for Halloween. We had a ward trunk or treat the weekend before Halloween and she would not wear her costume because it was too hot. She did have a really good time bouncing (even though she would not go in without Daddy).
On Halloween, Sariah's grandparents came over to visit. We went to dinner and then they went to a baseball game while we went trick or treating. It is really nice to still be close enough to family and be able to spend time together. Sariah has a really great relationship with all her granparents but especially my dad...she LOVES him.
