Stella's 2nd Birthday

My niece Stella had her second birthday over the weekend. She had a little party with friends and family. Her theme for the party was Minnie Mouse so I made a fun cake for the occasion.
She's so cute :)

Jenny's Birthday

Michael's Mom came into town for her Birthday and we all went to Texas Roadhouse to celebrate. We made her get on the saddle and have the employees sing to her. She was so embarrassed but it was so funny!
I also made a delicious raspberry mango cake.. YUMM

Ari gets fixed!

We FINALLY got Ari fixed. I thought it was the best 100$ I have ever spent, but Michael felt so awful and guilty. We had to keep cone on him for 10 days and give him no heavy exercise. He has so much energy it's been so hard to keep him from playing. Only a few more days of keeping him locked up in the house.

Tina's Bridal Shower

My good friend Tina is getting married in July. Her family put together the cutest bridal shower. They had tons of her wedding decor around and her adorable engagement pictures.
Her sister planned a game where she asked Kyle (her fiance) some fun questions and for every question Tina got wrong she had to put a marshmallow in her mouth.
I brought dessert. I should have taken a picture of it before instead of after. I brought mini cupcakes, mini macaroons and cakebites. They were a hit :)

Bug Bite's

Earlier this week Michael and I took Ari to the park to play ball. I woke up the next morning to some small bug bites around my ankle but nothing out of the ordinary. I did my best to not scratch them so that they could go away. The next morning I woke up to this! The picture does not do justice! My ankle was so swollen and another bite looked just like this on the back of my ankle on the same foot. I went to work but as the day went on I noticed that it was starting to become painful to walk. It felt like the worst sun burn I've ever had with a combination of bruising. I went home and took Benadryl and iced it hoping that by the morning it would look better. The next morning it didn't look any better so I went to the doctor. Surprise surprise, He didn't know what it could be from so he just put me on antibiotics and said if its not looking better by Monday come back. Well at least the antibiotics are working and the swelling and bites are going away. I told Michael I am buying the Costco pack of bug spray so I never get a bug bite again!

Car Accident

A few weeks ago Michael was working a Bee's Baseball game in Salt Lake. Michael and his brother Marcus went to lunch after the game in Marcus's car. As they pulled up to Michael's car they both couldn't believe what they were seeing. They called the police to come and file a report. Luckily the lady that hit Michael got out of her car and wrote a very nice note, and I quote "People's I can fix this." THATS IT! I don't know how we got so lucky but they found her driving around in her astro van with her tire basically gone and her car just as damaged as Michael's. She was intoxicated of course and she luckily does have insurance. I can't believe that one stupid person's mistake can affect so many people. I am so grateful that Michael wasn't hurt. Michael has had this car since he was 17, and although we both wanted a new car it was still bitter sweet. R.I.P. Rafael the Mustang :(
On a lighter note, we took full advantage of the sales that went on since it was memorial day weekend. Michael was sweet enough to give me the new car. We got such a great deal and and awesome warranty. We got a car that we could grow into once we decide to start a family. We also spent some of our weekend at Michael's Dad's house playing games, watching movies and most of all pigging out!
