4 years

On the 10th floor of the Joseph Smith Memorial building is where we celebrated our fourth year anniversary. And let me tell you the Roof did not dissapoint, worth every penny. Just the desserts alone would have been worth it for me.

I guess staring at the Temple makes me feel a little nastalgic. As I sat there looking out the window of the beautiful view of the temple and surrounding city, I felt very grateful. Grateful for the life I have. Grateful for a man who loves me. Grateful for the little person we made. We talked about how fun it would be to live in down town Salt lake and live "that" kind of life style.. ya know all cool and urban. The truth is I like my life just the way it is, and I think its pretty cool. The truth is I didn't think my life could have been this cool.

I asked Mason as were were sitting there what his favorite part of the last four years was. He said hands down the day Cash was born. I agreed. He said that day broke him down to his bare Essentials.. we both laughed because that doesn't even make sense, and becuase that is a cosmetics line. And then I corrected him and said no, Bare Minerals. Then he held up his fork with chunk of prime rib on it and said since we are talking about the day Cash was born,"this looks like your placenta". I agreed.

Bug bites, sheep, and elephants..

I noticed one morning Cash had a little red dot on his forehead... 2 hours later it was the size of a golf ball! Apparently he's allergic to mosquito's, or spiders or whatever it was that got him. Besides looking a little alienish and people at the grocery store staring at him like I beat my child, he didn't seem to mind. I don't think it bothered him a bit.. maybe blocked his vision a little.

We had a fun filled Halloween this year. Started with the Nord's party at the nursing home, the Friends party at the Marriotts, and the Salmon party at my house. The rain put a damper on things (literally) Halloween night, but Cash still had a great time mostly answering the door at Nana's house and just say "Hi, hi, hi" to all the kids at the door. Here I am with my sheep. We found a little trail of Cotton balls everywhere we went..no worries it didn't take me very long to glue them on, only like 3 weeks.

Cash had his first visit to the zoo last week along with Jemaica and Piper. I think he enjoyed it, I was hoping for a little more excitement, but it was a good change of pace and I think the last of our good weather for a while.
