THE MONTH OF MAY

Much has happened this month. first off,
May 10th-our 3rd anniversary. I can't believe we have been together for 3 wonderful years. I can't seem to remember not having Blake a part of my life. He is my best friend, my lover and my eternal companion. What a wonderful father he is to our children, a worthy priesthood holder and my dearest treasure. My life would not be complete without him in it. He had to work on that day so we set aside a weekend to be together.
May 14th: Mothers day-The girls and Blake got me some really pretty Willow Tree Carvings. I love them. They made me a card and I didn't have to change one nasty diaper all day (happy day) We got the traditional flower in church and I also received a home made (well church made) book marker that I love. I love being a mom!!
May 17th, 30 years ago my brother Jeffrey was born. Its always nice to share birthdays with him. I was five when he was born and even though I said I hated him for spoiling my birthday, I love him to pieces now. Happy Birthday Brother.
May 18, 1971 My parents were blessed with their first and only daughter. Yes, it was my birthday on the 18th, I am a whooping 35. My husband sent me a beautiful arrangement of roses to my work (I was surprised) and he and the girls took me to dinner at the Mayan. I think the girls had more fun dancing to the Latin music and watching the divers. It was a fun night. After dinner we went to Smiths and bought a Gazebo for our deck. Its pretty.
May 19th: 2 year anniversary of when Blake adopted my sweet Gracie. For 18 months she was known as Marjorie Gracie Olsen. But, then my sweet husband choose to Adopt my daughter and give her the name she should have had in the first place; Marjorie Grace Watkins. That is one of the most special days of my life. Thank you honey for loving Grace and giving her a name. I love you!!
May 20th: spent the weekend at the Inn at Temple Square for my birthday and anniversary. Went and saw a movie (the Davinci code) it was really great. Went to dinner and played video games (one of my favorite things to do.) What a nice weekend and we didn't even have the kids (thanks mom and Kristi)
May 22nd: Had our doctors apt. It went really well. The doctor said I can pick a day to have this baby...I'll probably go in on the 9th of June!!! Only 16 more days. Everything thing looks good. I am just tired and sore. I can't wait to see if this baby has red hair.

coming up:
Memorial day. We are planning to spend some time up in Heber. Blake's father passed away about 8 years ago and so we are going to head up there and do the cemetery thing. Its so pretty up there I think we'll spend the day. Maybe on Monday we'll do a bbq with family.
Phew what a month!!
