~May~

May was a pretty low key month too, but my goal is to write a post every month... er go... ~May~

I only have a handful of pictures from May, but the main thing that happened was my hubby left me for 2 weeks!! Longest 2 weeks of my life!! Since we have been together, the longest we have been apart is 2-3 days, so 2 weeks was a jump! And it sucked! haha 
Before Kam left for Virginia he was able to go to the dinner the Doc's hosted for nurses week with me!

Two days after Kam left it was Mother's Day and he was pretty bummed he wasn't going to be home so the next day I was surprised when I was mowing my lawn and around the corner came Dan, Rachel, Lexi and Macy carrying some flowers for me!
Made my day! 
Made me cry!
You never cease to amaze me babe!πŸ’—

I don't remember much about the 2 weeks Kam was gone except we were both miserable, lonely, and couldn't wait until the day he came home!

He finally started his travels home on the 24th in the wee hours of the morning and after traveling all day and sitting in the SLC airport just 3 hours awake from me all night!! He finally made it home at about 3am the next morning!! I had luckily just gotten up to go to the bathroom and was laying in bed when I heard the garage door open! πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—
I'm good to not do that again for a year!! 😜

One fun thing we did do this month was take the kids to the monster truck show! I had never been to one, it was pretty fun!
It wasn't cold that day until the minute we sat down the wind picked up... Twin Falls πŸ‘Œ

But we still had fun!

~April~

April was a pretty low key month.

We didn't have the kids for Easter this year so we decorated sugar cookies at Grandma's with the cousins before hand.
We get serious about this cookie decorating business! 😜
The Easter Bunny still found the kids at our house though! 😊

Kam and I both really enjoy being out side together, hiking or what have you, so since I hadn't hiked down to Pillar Falls, we hiked down there one day.


It was quite the hike! Super steep all the way down and then you had to come back up! When we got down there the river was too high so we couldn't actually get out to the falls, so we'll have to go again, or kayak there! But it was an adventure! And it was fun! And the view is always amazing when your doing anything in the canyon!
We took the kids to ice cream one night and tried out the new creamery!
*Note to self for next time.. get the kiddy cup!! The small was HUGE!

Poor Kam he always misses out on things when he has to go to drill πŸ˜”. The last weekend in April while Kam was in Boise for drill we took the kids on a picnic with Grandma and Grandpa and Aunt Rachael and then went mini golfing.... which I usually do decent at, but BOTCHED it!! haha We had fun though! And that's all the matters!
Love this family!! πŸ’•
Pretty low key month! 
See you in May!

The Rest of March

The rest of March brought a lot of fun and adventure!

Kameron worked his first day as a nurse


We "celebrated" St. Patrick's Day with green pancakes, green church clothes and a fun afternoon filled with bike rides and a picnic at the park

The funnest event of all though, and Kameron would attest, was his lasik surgery!
Poor guy kind of had a tramatic experience! They took him back the 1st time, yes there was more than 1! And his eye moved when the laser started to cut, releasing the suction so they had to stop. They brought him out and came and got me and he said I'm going to have to come back in a month, I was like whatever! And he was like no for real, my eye moved and I have to wait a month for the cut just made to heal! But luckily the Doc came and looked at it and the laser had just barely started cutting so he thought they could proceed. So they took him back for the 2nd time, gave him extra numbing drops and thankfully successfully lasered his eyes!

We stayed in Boise since he had a follow-up the next morning, and he was supposed to sleep when he got done so he wouldn't feel the pain of the next 6 hours, which they say is the worst! But he didn't 😬 so he was awake through the worst post op part! πŸ˜” But thankfully slept pretty good that night!

And we ended the month with a bang at the Children's Museum in Meridian for Spring Break!

March Birthdays!!

March, the best month of the yearπŸ˜‰, brings around Bentley's and my birthdays!!

I turned !26! this year!! I am getting so old! My birthday fell on Sunday, so Saturday night after I got off work we went to Pizza Pie Cafe' because I got a free buffet haha not my  first choice of dinner place but hey mine was free! Nothin' better than that! 😜 

The next morning I got breakfast in bed, and the cake batter bowl and spatula in bed after Kam made a cake for me!πŸ’• Seriously the best part of my birthday! We wouldn't have had to do anything else and he wouldn't have had to get me anything else! That simple act of thoughtfulness and love was all I needed!πŸ’— That's MY kind of love language!! I told him no one had ever made (I’m all about homemade!) me a cake before besides my mom and it seriously meant the world to me! And it was so delicious!! 

After church Kam had coordinated with his family and we went to his Mom's and Dad's for dinner, Tammy's homemade chicken alfredo! πŸ˜‹ My favorite!! So yummy! And then of course cake and ice cream! Thanks for the best birthday babe! 😘

Bentley's Birthday was on the 13th, so just a few days after mine, he turned 7!! After spending the whole day on our bikes, we took him out Monday night to ice cream! His choice... Arctic Circle! And celebrated that weekend!
We spent the afternoon at Grandma King's so she could help me make the Venom cake Bentley wanted! Oh that was after the St. Patrick's Day parade... πŸ‘Ž haha And then went to dinner with everyone that night to Red Robin (I also had a free burger there 😜) and then had cake and ice cream and presents!
Thank You for all your help Grandma King!! I couldn't have done it without you!!
He loved it!! It did turn out pretty awesome!!
It was a successful birthday weekend!!

Until next year March Birthdays😘
