Meet our new editions...

Well, John and I have been thinking for a while now about getting a pet. I love dogs and John likes just about anything. So, we looked a lot on craigs list and ksl. There were a few good ones but nothing seemed right. We then started looking for cats.. now, I'm not a huge fan of cats. They're cute and some are playful but I'm totally a dog lover. Well, through a friend, we found some cats. We went over today to see them and well, now they are ours. AH! I can't believe we just got not only 1 cat but 2! They are brothers and we just couldn't separate them. The lady who gave them to us was so happy we were taking them both. And she was glad we didn't have little boys who might blow them up for Halloween... anyway, here they are!

Birthday Surprises

Ok, so you all know I had a great birthday and I was completely fine with it. Well, little did I know it was far from over. Last night I had a surprise birthday party all planned by my amazing husband. Here's how it went down. Before I went to work, John told me he had a friend from out of town visiting and that they were gonna hang out and go to dinner when we were both off work. John was working til 7:30 and I was working til 8. Well at 7 he calls saying he got off a little early and that they were going to go to NickelCade first because his friend's 2 year old wanted to play games before dinner. I probably only thought for a second that, oh he's got a wife and kid? Well, I got out of work a little late and arrived at nickelcade about 8:30. I spot John right away and he seems eager to see me and have me meet his friend. I got in and we start walking to the back of the arcade and John grabs my hand and starts booking it. I was so caught off guard and in no control that I feared falling flat on my face or bashing into one of the kiddie rides. By the time we stop running I practically yell at John, WHY DID YOU DO THAT??? Then he spins me around and everyone yells, SURPRISE! I went from total anger to total shock and didn't know how to react so the tears started coming. I wasn't sad or anything, I was shocked! Of coarse people were laughing and it was all a lot of fun. We had about 15 people show up. Some stayed and played games, others came and went. Ah, my husband did good. I'm a pretty easy person to surprise though. I never suspect a thing and I'll believe any lie you tell me. John had no friend from out of town and he didn't work that day at all. He really was so cute to put this all together. I love him so much! Anyway, kinda a long story but here's a funny video. Just remember, I was having so many emotions going off that I'm a little scatter brained. Also, wiping away many happy tears.
