Happy Birthday to me!

I celebrated #27 on Sunday! It was a great day. We were at Kenyan's dad's house so they all came in and sang to me in the morning. And I have to say, they sounded pretty good for that early in the morning!!

We spent four hours of the day driving home from Elko to Salt Lake, but then my sister-in-law Crystal made a delicious steak dinner for us and the boys decorated cupcakes for me!

Before we left for Reno, Kenyan gave me a new game to play on the DS to keep myself occupied on our drive to Reno. :) (I get antsy easily! 4 hours flew by in no time!!) My mom took me out to lunch on Monday-Paradise Bakery-yummy! This was my first time and it was delicious! I also got some cute Halloween decor from her too-I love Halloween. Thanks mom!

Thanks to everyone for all the birthday wishes and cards I received, I appreciate your thoughtfulness!

I managed to blow them all out!! Don't let the 4 candles deceive you, I really did turn 27. :)


The cupcake decorating culprits.....du, du, duuuuuuu.


Ethan, me and Conrad. Those cupcakes were yummy!!

Reno

We went to Reno this weekend to visit Kenyan's family. His Grandpa Brown was in town from Indiana and we wanted to go see him, especially since I've never met him. It was a quick weekend trip, and I think we were in the car most of the time, but we still had fun. Thanks to Kenyan's dad and step mom we got to stay in Tahoe one night-it was beautiful....and very cold!! We had fun visiting everyone and even got a chance to play at Circus Circus. I have become a pro at the camel racing game!!

Ethan is very excited about his Halloween costume....wouldn't you be if you were that cute?!


I think Kenyan's pretty excited about his Halloween costume too....I just don't know how well it's going to fit....hmmmm.


Tahoe! Ethan said it best, "It's Christmas!"


Ethan couldn't wait to play in the snow! He would've been out there in pj's and bare feet if he could have!


Daphne, Ethan's little sister, she's got the coolest leggings and I want her slippers!


Me and Kenyan...trying to stay warm!!


Kenyan helping Ethan playing the chicken game. (If you've never played you have to hit the catapult hard enough to get the chicken to fly and land in a pot.)


Me and my winnings at the camel racing game. :) We were celebrating my birthday early. :)

Viva Las Vegas!

This past weekend Kenyan and I decided to join the fam in Las Vegas. My mom and dad said it was good to see us. :) (Sorry mom that we haven't been over to play games for a while.)

We played a new game called "Category 5" with everyone. The point of it is to get the least amount of points as possible by not collecting rows of cards. If you are the one to play the sixth card in a row the row becomes yours. It was a fun game and I love learning new games, and we all have a favorite new phrase now after playing, "You eat!"(Sorry for all of you who have no idea what I'm talking about.)

While the guys went to the Priesthood session of conference Saturday night the girls went to women's night at Deseret Book. They had treats and drawings and Heather and I won the first two drawings!! And I ran into a friend of mine who just moved to Las Vegas-talk about a small world! (It was good to see you Julie!)

We had a fun weekend playing with everyone and enjoyed David's Thai curry. It was fun to play with the boys-they are getting so big!! We need to visit more often. :)

Unfortunately, to Brittany and Abell's dismay, we left Sunday after the first session of conference. Thanks for letting us stay with you guys-it was short and sweet, but still fun!

Nicole and Jake
