Monday, January 11 - Ricki keeps asking me to come snuggle with her so I did. I can't handle how much I love to cuddle with this little sweetheart! I'm soaking it in because I know it will eventually come to and end and then I will be sad.
Tuesday, January 12 - Ricki and Bridget have a friend at school named Jazzy and they have been wanting to get together to play. Leave it to Marisa to make it happen! They had a blast together and were already making plans to do it again before we even left this play date! Cute girls!
Wednesday, January 13 - This was a sad sad day. Our friend, Josh Spilker, lost his battle with Metastatic Melanoma. The four of us went together to Farmington to attend his viewing. On the way down, we stopped to pick up our new Christ picture and got a wonderful surprise. The artist refunded our whole picture fee! So she just replaced it for us without charge which was so kind! Then we headed to dinner and the viewing. It was great to be able to see Jenny, Josh's wife, and support her, her family, and Josh's parents but so hard to see him in his casket surrounded by his young children. He was only two months older than Simon so it really hits home how fragile life is and how it can just be taken away so suddenly. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Spilker family and we hope that they can find hope and peace even through this very difficult time in their lives.
Thursday, January 14 - Every once in a while this girl's energy level just catches up to her and she crashes hard. She got up early with Simon to go pick Nick and Colton up from early morning workout (at 6:40 am). When she got home from school, I was cleaning my bathroom and when I came out, this is how I found her. She slept for about an hour and a half and shockingly, she went to bed just fine when that time came too.
Friday, January 15 - This was an interesting day. Grandma Howard had an appointment to check up on her pacemaker so I took her to that. The appointment went well and everything was great with her. It ended up being a blessing though that I took her because I was able to help Jenni and Brielle out. Jenni had purchased Brielle a baptism dress back in August or September and they decided to go do baptism pictures today. Brielle went to put her new dress on and it was too small! The tag on the sleeve with the price on it said 7/8 but the tag in the dress said 5/6. Poor Jenni was so upset because it ruined their plans and she thought she wasn't going to be able to find the dress anywhere. However, I was driving right past Costco when I called her so I told her I would quick stop and see what they had. Luckily, they had a TON of dresses! I grabbed a couple of them and was able to drop them off at Jenni's house. They were able to run out and make it in time to get baptism pictures before dark. I was glad to be in the right place at the right time to help them out today!
Saturday, January 16 - I hate when I forget to get a picture of fun things that we do but alas, I am human. So...Simon and I went to dinner at La Hacienda with Jeremy and Marisa and then came back to our house to watch The Guardian. It was an older movie but so good! We enjoyed the movie and enjoyed the time with our friends!
Sunday, January 17 - Are you ready for some football? If you need Simon on a Sunday afternoon/evening, this is where you can find him! He is loving the new theater room for football. The playoff games this year are super intense and good too so it makes the dark theater room and huge TV even that much better. I can't lie, I'm enjoying it too!!
