not having internet at home is a blessing and a curse...

blessing: nearly EVERY SINGLE ONE of my boxes was unpacked & put away after a week of moving in.

curse: no time for blogging :)

i will however, say i saw this photo on the kitchn today
& i still haven't decided what it makes me crave...

a gorgeous bouquet of roses, or a decadent dessert (in chocolate please).

the finish line.


well, it's about killed me...
but we're within a week of our moving date. the stress is nearly unbearable, and i'm sure everyone who knows me wants to lock me in a closet, but i promise to be a better mother, wife, daughter, friend, blogger, etc. when this is all over with & i can start going on to my real life again! can't wait to pull into the driveway, decorate the walls & call this little house our home.

miles birthday weekend.

it was LITERALLY the whole weekend...

i'll start from the beginning:
friday morning, we woke miles up with his present from jonny & i
then he went to school and shared rice krispie treats with all his classmates.
that night, he went to pirate island with his dad & brittany & some friends.
brittany sent me this picture of the party...he looks so happy!

saturday we woke up and got miles, and trekked up to midway
he got some great gifts, swam in the river, and ate cake & ice cream!

sunday the holt's threw miles an adorable little party with their family...unfortunately, we don't have photos because my camera died : ( they had tons of balloons, (they dropped them from the balcony when he walked in the front door, so cute), batman streamers, tons of amazing gifts, pizza (miles favorite), cake & ice cream (AGAIN, 3rd time!)

sunday we had our family party up at my mom's in salt lake, and i'm so friggin jealous of her new house. it's absolutely adorable. she's going to have to work double time to help me set up ours!

those are just the first 2 rooms of the house, but they're so cute.
we have about a billion photos of the party so i'll post a couple now:
my mom's side yard is so adorable.

backyard scene, love the lights.

miles & kennedy playing on his presents.

miles had a pretty epic bike crash...he cut his lip open & had blood everywhere.

opening MORE gifts

attempt at a photo, somehow nobody looks very happy but me.

blowing out his candles.

his "dirt" cake, which he wouldn't eat.

oh so cute!

if this didn't satisfy (haha) here's a link to all the photos:
