We Like to Party, We Like, We Like to Party

This week has been rather phenomenal and I'm so glad we got to do so much fun stuff.



Caleb:  He's a strong willed little booger that likes to push his daddy to the limits during sacrament meeting - but he's soft and sweet when he's asleep and will actually fall asleep when we're holding him now, and has the cutest little dimple, so I guess he still has some redeeming qualities.

Byron:  Friday was his last day in his current office.  The movers are working this weekend to get everything set up in the new office and while it will be a slightly longer bike ride, he, and the rest of the company, are excited about the space they'll have.

Arielle:  This week I had fun planning and plotting 2 incredibly delicious dinners, and I ALSO realized that Caleb's "Me" complex has developed a little too much and I've got a lot of work ahead of me.

In General:  Tuesday Byron and I finally met up with another couple from his work and tried a new, fun Mediterranean restaurant called Kabab House, and had a good time talking with Justin and Cassie. (They gave us the crib mattress Caleb uses and a bunch of other stuff last year and they're a super fun couple).  Wednesday night we had the elder's over and we got to help Elder Riggs celebrate his birthday.  I had called his mom and got the recipe for his favorite dinner, enchilada pie (if you click on the word HERE, you can get the recipe), and we got him a cheesecake (his requested birthday cake).  We put candles on it and sang Happy Birthday and everything.  It was a ton of fun.  I enjoy helping people celebrate their birthdays - they're such important days :) :) :).  Thursday morning I made breakfast in bed for Byron and started a pot roast for his Valentine Dinner.  After he left for work I picked up Charlie and watched him for the morning so my parents could go on a date.  My mom helped me curl my hair  and make cherry tarts afterwards and Byron and I got home around the same time.  The roast was done, and incredibly delicious, and we had a nice evening.  Friday evening was a birthday open house for one of my sisters best friends, and since we love the family, and were invited, we went.  It was fun and almost date-like, getting to talk to a bunch of other couples from church while Alyssa took Caleb.  Saturday we went to Tech-Fest at Sinclair.  It's a math and science fair geared towards kids put on by Sinclair once a year.  Businesses and schools from all over the area come and set up interactive booths to teach kids more about science and technology.  It was awesome and Byron really enjoyed himself.

I guess that's all for this week, I hope you all had a good time too, Cheerio!
