Happy Birthday and a carnival

My awesome husband turned 29 last weekend! I know I'm late posting it, but who cares...I'm posting it!!

Saturday was Mesquite days, so we went to a parade, (Doug says they threw the parade just for his birthday)! And then afterwards we went to the carnival. It was small, but it was nice because there weren't any lines for the kiddy rides!


(These guys are from Shriner's Hospital)


(Yes, even the missionaries were in the parade)!

The boys had a blast! Preston would cry when he had to get off so we would hurry and try to get him on another ride! He and Drew's faces were priceless! I just love seeing how much fun they have on those things! It makes me smile so big!




It was really hot, but we survived with a little shaved ice! If you know me, I loved snow cones and shaved ices!!

After nap time, Doug and I got a babysitter and headed up to St. George for dinner at the Pizza Factory, in celebration of his birthday. The Pizza Factory did not disappoint! Super yummy and I suggest anyone looking for a good pizza and bread stick place, go there.


Now, my gift I got for him I was SUPER EXCITED about! I finally got him something that he had no idea what he was getting! So when he opened it up, I surprised to find out that he knew what is was!! SERIOUSLY?!! I got his tickets to see Brian Reagan at Tuachan. I've had those tickets for a couple months now and hid them where he had no idea.....how did he know?! I have no idea, but he somehow always figures things out.


After dinner, we headed off to Lowe's to buy blinds. Yes, we finally bought blinds! And they have totally changed the appearance of our house! I love it! I will post pictures of our windows now that the blinds are in them!

Well babe, I know it's late, but I hope you had a good birthday. It was fun to spend time with you!
