Hello London!

My older sister and her husband just had a new baby girl, named London. She is one month old and is truly precious! They decided to have the baby blessing President's Day weekend, so we packed up our small car on Valentine's morning and headed out to California for a few days. We had a great time and were so excited that we finally got to meet our new little niece!

Here was the picture on her baby announcement, isn't she just so sweet?!

Here's another cute one, stolen from my sister:

 

And of her stretching. I just love baby stretches! 

He looks really good with a baby in his arms, haha!

We had a great time eating out, passing around London, visiting and just being together. I love my family and was so grateful to see them all. Here we are eating out with our Pazooki desserts, yum!

The whole group that came to the baby blessing on Sunday:

All us Lineback girls: Aimee, Carrie, me, and my mom:

Great memories with even better company. Thanks for the great weekend :)

B-day and V-day

Since my birthday and Valentine's Day always fall on the same week, I like to think of it as one week-long celebration. It's the greatest, I recommend it to everyone! We had the busiest week and were going out of town for President's Day weekend, so we went out to dinner and opened gifts on Monday before my B-day or V-day. We went out to eat at The Roof, a restaurant in downtown SLC that we had heard great things about. I had been curious to try it, and since it is pretty pricey we combined both holidays with one eating out adventure. 

This was the view from our table! I think that truly is the best part about the restaurant, although the food was good too...you just pay for the view ;)

 

 Glad to always celebrate with this guy:

 They brought me a candle to blow out:

 

But luckily the dessert didn't stop there! They had two other buffet dessert tables and I made it a goal to sample every dessert...I came pretty close.

 

 We had a great time, and then the spoiling continued at home when David got me an iPad, which I have wanted for awhile! And which made the new ski gloves I got David on Valentine's Day look lame. They were practical!

And then on my actual birthday David I made my favorite dish, baked Macaroni & Cheese! I know, I'm a kid. And he really did help a little! It was one of my best batches ever, and was delicious with some roasted brussel sprouts and a fruit salad. Happy Birthday meal indeed!

I was absolutely spoiled this week, and am so grateful for David! And for all the cards and gifts from family. Thank you to everyone, and I hope everyone had a great week celebrating love :)
