February 2014

February has been a pretty crazy month! Ruby turned 3 on Valentines day. We usually let the birthday girl or boy pick what we do for dinner, either at home or out. I asked Ruby what she wanted for dinner and she said "lettuce and soup". I then asked her, "where do you want that, at home or at a restaurant?" She told me, "A restaurant, a green one." So we went to Sweet Tomatoes.


Then Saturday the 15th Ruby had a party because it was a "big year" for her. She had 7 little friends come over and they all just had pizza and fruit and watched Sophia the First since it was a Sophia party. They also decorated cookies and played.


On the 18th we celebrated Emily's 8th birthday at Texas Roadhouse since the girl LOVES steak. It was fun because they put her on a saddle and sang to her which she enjoyed being the center of attention.


On the 22nd Emily also had a party. That was a busy day for me since I was asked by the Stake Relief Society to head up our Women's Conferenece luncheon of about 150 sisters. The menu I came up with was 3 different kinds of soups, salad, rolls, and a dessert kabob with brownie, strawberries and marshmallows. The soup part wasn't too hard because we had sisters make the soup and bring it, the hard part was shopping for all the food, and assembling the 300 kabobs. After the luncheon I headed home to have Emily's party which was a karaoke party. The kids all had a blast, and Emily was spoiled.
