Matty's Birthday

My baby turned 7..... its wonderful and sad all rolled in one. The day started out pretty good, I left his presents out on the table and he waited for me to wake up before he opened them. I went way over board as I do with every holiday:




After presents we decided to clean house because we were going to dinner and then the movies.

I love these potato skins they are my favorite. Matt likes them too!
One word Yummmmmmy!!!! The kids loved it.
As you can see!!
After that we were off to see KUNG FU PANDA, loved it loved it loved it. Go see even if you don't have kids.
As a special treat Brendan drew tattoos on all the kids too it was way fun.


Can you guess who got what? All in all it was a great day and Matt was very happy. After all who doesnt love a day all about them.

Natural wonders

Well we didn't go looking for opals but we planned out some fun things. My favorite was by far Kennecott copper mine. Holy cow I just couldn't stop starring at it. I just thought the mine was the coolest thing ever. Anyone who hasn't seen it or just been a really long time GO. I mean where else can y0u stand just feet away from something you can see from outer space!
It really looks like toy cars but wait till you see the next picture.








This is the kids in front of the tire to that toy looking truck. Jordan read the sign that said these tires are $25,000 each. OMG










I did this picture big because if you look carefully you can see the copper. Hint: its green!

















It is a gem stone I saw on Cash and Treasures. She said that if you can find a gem quality that it could be worth $2000 to $2500 a karat. I really want to find one of these. They are best found at night! All you need is a black light and some good walking shoes.
