Sunday was my birthday and it was a great day! My mom took the kids for the weekend (Friday through Saturday...I KNOW!!!) So Chris and I had a fun-filled weekend of eating out and shopping and of course sleeping in late! On Sunday it was our Primary Program (Carson's 1st) and I was soooo excited to see how my little shy boy would do up there in front of the whole congregation. He had done really good in practice, but with the room full of people I knew he'd have to muster up some courage. I teach the 7 and 8 year olds in primary so I think it helped that he knew he had me up there with him. He did terrific though! He got up there and mumbled through his part which was, "I came to earth as part of a family." He was hard to hear and a little hard to understand, but he DID IT, which made us sooo proud! He said that he did it because it was my birthday and because Grandma and Grandpa came to watch! I was bummed that I actually missed his part. I have a little girl in my class who is handicapped and I had to step out with her for a bit and I missed his part. :-(. I was bummed but Chris and his sunbeams teacher said he did great!
As if that wasn't enough of a birthday present, my mom and dad made me a fabulous dinner of brisket, potatoes and the works with of course a birthday cheesecake! It was wonderful! I got a bunch of great gifts from all of my wonderful family (thanks everyone!!!), but I think I would have to say that my favorite gift of all was from Carson. He told my mom and Chris that he wanted to a Pink hair bow for me for my birthday! (So sweet!) So Chris searched a few stores until he found a pink hair bow that was perfect, and Carson was so excited to give it to me! I wear it proudly and Carson tells me it makes him happy when I put it in my hair! I love my sweet, sweet, thoughtful boy! and I love bows and I of course love PINK so it was a fabulous gift all around!

We often drive by the new Cowboys stadium and Carson will ask about it we'll tell him it's where the Cowboys play football...the other day we went there to drop Chris and a few of my brothers off to watch a soccer game, and Carson asked about what they were going to watch, I said soccer this time not football. A week later at church when we were walking the halls Carson asks about the pictures of the Temples on the wall so we'll tell him they are Temples and explain about them and he turns to us and asks, "But what about the soccer Temple? Where's the picture of the soccer Temple?" (it's a BIG stadium and I guess to him it looked like it should be on the wall of Temples.)
We were going grocery shopping the other day, Carson asked where we were going and I told him to the food store. Right then we passed McDonalds and he asks me, "At McDonalds they sell food right?" I said yes and he asks, "If they sell food there, then it's a food store right?" I again say yes I suppose so, and he says, "Well if it's a food store, then maybe we should go there this time."

(A little rude.)
