South of the Border

It was a pretty relaxing week.  Kyle did take me on a date to go get some Coldstone Ice Cream.  He actually planned on it.  Mainly cause he really wanted to make his own creation.  The line was super long, but it was worth it.

We also convinced Caryn to take family pictures for us.  Dexter was super cranky.  Teething molars and 2 hours past naptime didn't help.  But we did get some great ones.

Mother's day was nice.  Kyle got me a present.  The only stipulation was not being a bag of Dove chocolate.  I mean I love Dove chocolate.  But I also got it for the past 2 valentine's and mother's day, and for my birthday.  I even know it'll be my present before he even thinks of it.
So do you want to guess what it was?  If you guessed Meat Tenderizer you were right.  That's right.  I think I probably laughed a bit when I opened it, but it is practical.  He said he was inspired by me pulling out the hammers and rubber mallets to smash meat.

I also tried to let Kyle take over most of the diaper changing.  Such little things bring joy.
We also got to talk to Elder Jacob Hansen!  Kyle's brother who's serving a mission in Mexico.  We had this elaborate set up so we could conference call with him.  I actually got to talk with him first.  Which was exciting!  I was a little occupied with calling his cell then the land-line, but that didn't work.  Then cell, then conference calling the Hansens (with Kacey) and the Provo Hansens (with Garrett).  It was a little confusing having 11 people all on, but it was also so awesome.  

Talking to Uncle Jake!!!
