...Friday's Favorites...

So here you have it...my favorite purchase of the week, "the Office: season three". Really, how can you watch it and not laugh at something?! Yesterday was a bit of a stressful mom day for me. Chad was out of town for the night & I slept at my parents'. Zac gets on this kick when he's at either of his grandparents' houses...and he decides that he doesn't want to go to bed. To make a long story short by the time Zac was asleep, it was past 11, I was in tears, and I felt like a horrible mom. I walked out into the family room & my sister Kylie was just putting "The Office" in to watch. It was the perfect ending to a hard day...thank you Dwight...for making me laugh when I really didn't think it was possible! :)

...Blinded by the Bow...

So I'm busy doing laundry, driving the car, bathing Zac, working on the computer, or whatever it may be and I start to hear Emerson grunting...and every time I find her like this turning her head back & forth confused as to why she can't see. She's now learned how to pull her head bands down over eyes & it makes me laugh every time. I probably should stop putting the dumb things on her little head, but I can't help myself sometimes...I just think they're too cute.

...My Rockstar of a Husband...

So Guitar Hero is Chad's new found love. Here he is jamming out at our friends Teyan & Jessica's...it's weird, it just comes sooo natural to him. ;)

Now he thinks he's a rockstar...this was such a fun game! You sing along and it grades you on how well you sing on key. I pretty much failed every time, pathetic but true.

Notice my white legs...however I have been tanning two times since this picture was taken. So now that summer's practically over I'm going tanning?? Don't ask me why.

...Friday Favorites...

So my favorite sweet tooth satisfying treat is hands down a McDonald's soft served icecream cone! The addiction began probably close to 5 years ago, when Santa left a book full of McDonalds $1 gift certificates in our stockings. For the next 4 months following Christmas, instead of going out for hot chocolate, we would go get icecream instead...despite the fact that it was below freezing in Rexburg, Idaho. Ever since, I've been a loyal McDonald's Icecream Cone Consumer. Not only are they quick & delicious, but better yet...they have only 150 calories and cost less than $1. Another perk is...they usually have little kiddie cones for 25 cents. Zac thinks they are the coolest thing ever since they're just his size, but we have a hard time finding them since they're only at select locations...(that causes problems sometimes as you can probably imagine)...but other than that, they really are the perfect treat for those of us craving something sweet when we're on the go, or not on the go for that matter!

...What's Been Happening...

Last week was a busy one for our little family...to start it all off, we went to the Josh Groban concert and I loved it! I've always wanted to hear him live...and seriously it was awesome! He has an amazing voice...and surprisingly he was quite the entertainer, I'd go again in a heart beat...Chad on the other hand...says he has an "appreciation for his music."

And then of course, there was the Boise State football game!! We drove to Boise for the occasion...and we won 56-7...it was definitely worth it. I had to get a picture of the Fiesta Bowl Champions sign...seeing as how that was the BeST game ever!

Here's the Broncos getting ready to run out on the one & only blue turf!

Zac's game day attire...he loves them "Broncers"!

And then we got to celebrate Grandma Field's 88th birthday! She's such a great lady...I hope I live to have as much energy as she does at that age.

One of the things I miss most about living in Boise is the river! We went on a walk along the greenbelt for old times' sakes...it was great. Zac loved throwing rocks in the water & Emerson loved just being outside...she's starting to notice everything now, so it's fun to watch her constantly looking around. I've decided that the only thing Utah is missing is a nice pretty river running through the middle of the city with a nice greenbelt right alongside it, it's my favorite.

So we're home now...and I'm proud of myself because I got all the bags unpacked, clothes washed & PUT AWAY today! Usually it takes me a few days to get things back in order, but we got back early today so I had the time to do it, and can I just tell you that I'm going to sleep better because of it. Yay for me...Hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend! :)
