The Pentons

Yesterday Craig and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary. We decided last year that we would follow a traditional gift giving list for our anniversary gifts. So last year we gave each other something that had to do with paper and this year it was cotton. So Craig bought me a cute little robe and I made Craig a quilt (still in the works). That night for dinner we went to a steakhouse and then we went to the Anniversary Inn. It was a fun place to go because there were different theme rooms, we stayed in the Carriage suite. It was like old England, there was a mural on the wall and our bed was in a carriage. It was a lot of fun! Thanks Craig for a great 2 years and I look forward to many more together!

Here at our apartments they have garden plots that you can rent for $5, so this year we got one and we are having quite the harvest. This picture is of the first tomato we grew but we have gotten about 2-3 tomatoes/day since then. We have also had an abundance of lettuce, zucchini and cucumbers! I love fresh veges!

For our family vacation this year we spent a couple of days in Moab. We went to Arches and Canyonlands national parks. We saw about 1000 arches and have the pictures to prove it, but I didn't post most of them. We went white water rafting in a little blow up canoe, that was an adventure! And we found the best huckleberry ice cream which we ate every night!

This last week Jenna, my sister in law, had a little baby girl and she is so cute! Here are some pics of her!

Happy Birthday to me!! Yeah. We celebrated my birthday on Saturday by buying tres leches cakes, going mini-golfing and finally ending our adventure at the Rodizio grill (they have the best birthday song ever PS) So heres some pictures from the event.

So a while ago I started this second baby quilt meant for the sister in law, her baby is due in August. I decided it would be fun to machine quilt it....never again. I had such a hard time machine quilting it and there are so many imperfections I hesitate to even give away this quilt, but its so dang cute on the front that I've decided to look past the imperfections and give it anyway.

So I just want to share the super deal I got at Albertsons today. I bought 6 boxes of cereal and 2 boxes of Eggo's. They were all on sale for 1.88 each. I had 5 $1 off coupons and one $1.50 off coupon, I also had 3 coupons that doubled the price of any coupon. Guess how much I paid....$5.86! YAHOO!! Guess how much I saved.... $29! Double YAHOO! I love getting good deals!
