Best $6 I've ever spent...

I've been looking for an ottoman since the dawn of time but I'm never willing to pay much for it.
The other day at the thrift store I found a tan leather one for only $6! Even then, if you can believe it, I passed it up! The next day I came to my senses and went back for it.

And now, not only does it give my poor knees a rest and my husband a spot to sit on the couch, Owen has found a new "walker." He seriously will push this thing allllllll over the living room cracking up. It's hilarious.

vay-cay.

We took a last minute trip to Salt Lake when a friend in the ward offered us a free ride! We had so much fun but as always, we're happy to be home.

While we were there we did the usual:  hit up Red Iguana with Becky & Warren, Cafe Rio, visits with family, etc. We even were able to fit in a trip to Antoinette's Jewelry! (We got our antique engagement rings here! you can check out what we got here.) It was so fun to spend time with family and I totally melted watching Owen & his cousins play. So cute!

And since we won't be in town next month for Owen's actual birthday we made him a  panda cake.(If I knew it was going to slouch that way I'd have made it into a buddah instead.) The poor guy didn't have a clue as to what was going on and I think he was more afraid of his cake than excited. He didn't touch it the whole time and when we tried to give him a cupcake he started crying! Silly boy.

 His face here cracks me up.

Totally not interested. :-)
