Trip to Tooele

We went to help Jason and Crystal paint their house.. here are some pics of the adventure!

Random pics of us at the temple.

Belated bday party

Since Travis and I spent Alida's birthday at the ER stitching up Travis' knee, we never got around to properly celebrate her bday with cake! So, Grandma Stout and Aunt Celestie took care of things last night... here are some pics.

She ate almost the entire thing! When we tried to grab a bite Alida would start to cry and look so sad! So we just had to snag some pieces of cake when she wasn't looking :)

All done. Happy belated birthday Alida!

Alida at Temple Square

While Travis and Celestie were out for a test drive (as Celestie is in the process of buying a car) I got to walk around Temple Square with Alida, here are some pictures! Too bad I didn't have a real camera with me, just the camera on my phone...

(she looks so old in this next one!)

...No time to waste.

These were the cutest little stanchions.. perfect Alida size.

Mother's Day

Sunday, May 9. Mother's Day! Picnic at the park, and our attempt to fly an 8 year old kite that didn't have all its pieces.

Playing at the park-

Hang gliders-

Pretty sunset.

Up, up, up!

Tough day at work

We're thinking of bringing back to our DB stores Isaac the Mouse, to help promote reading. So our Marketing team had some fun out at the warehouse this afternoon- who's in the mouse costume you may ask? ....take one wild guess.

Here I am with Gail, our Director of Marketing (and my boss)

with Leigh, our Publicist

and with Michelle, our Marketing Coordinator!

Good times.

New flooring!

Friday night, our crew takes out the carpet-

Saturday, the real work begins- thank you JD and Jason for helping us out!!

We love the new flooring!!
