I ♥ SURPRISES!!!

For Coleman's 8th birthday, he told me he wanted to go to Lava Hot Springs, and to Salt Lake. Well, lets be realistic.......kids don't alaways get what they want. However, I did invite all my family from Salt Lake to Lava for a SURPRISE party for him. And boy was he SURPRISED!!!!

Mackenzie, Walker and Byron eating grapes (Coleman only got out of the water when it was time for cake...imagine that!)


My Mom, brother Marshall and his wife Lauren


This cute little guy (Walker) needs to come home with me! He is soooo sweet!



Marsh, Lauren & Walker


The SUPER EASY cake I made!


The kids had to check it out & couldn't believe they could eat the ROCKS!! (the lady at the gate who looked through our cooler even made a comment on my awesome cake! lol)



The traditional picture that ERIC always makes ME take (hahahahahah)


On our way home, when we were just about in Pocatello, Eric commented on the Extreme Home Make Over they are filming in Pocatello. So I texted a friend for the address (thx Jen!) and made my hubby go find it (don't be fooled, he was just as excited to see this house as I was!) When this guy saw I had my camera out, he posed as we was walking down the street. Eric laughed at me and told me that he was prob only a volunteer, but he climbed into a BIG truck and drove away and I am pretty sure they don't allow the volunteers to operate the machinary!!!



As of Saturday evening, this is what the house was looking like. I could have stood there and watched all day! (week)


This is one of the designers. I don't know his name though!



They were moving doors inside the house one right after another. I would have LOVED to go inside to watch!


I zoomed in to try to take a look inside!!


We decided we had better get back on the road and on our way back to the car, look who we saw!!!!!


In this picture, my mouth looks silly, but Jillian and I were talking about Ed, ya know, like girlfriends do!!!

I had to get the kids involved in this celebrity action!! (pls keep in mind, we had been swimming ALL day)
