What I am lovin' :)

Not much going on in the Madsen household so I just wanted to share a few of my favorite things that I got to experience this week! Thank you everyone for helping me celebrate my birthday also. I have so many friends and family that I love so much and I felt very loved in return on my special day. I was definitely spoiled!

I got the chance to eat in Provo this week (what a treat!) and I picked Mimi's Cafe. An all-time favorite. I have lots of good memories of meals that I have had there in addition to the best food ever. I had the best meal of French Onion Soup, Buttermilk Spice Muffin & Balsamic Chicken & Pistachio Salad. Yum, yum, yum. Oh and a Diet Coke of course. I even came home and found the recipe online for the muffins that taste the exact same!
My friend Amberly had an Scentsy party this week and I popped in to get some holiday scents. I am in love with their "Scent of the Month" Cinnamon Cider. It is a must for the holidays, along with Spiced Orange Harvest. I will never burn a candle as long as I live! Oh and I won the raffle which was even better!

I finished up my Christmas shopping this week and got to go to Build A Bear to make a dog for Colt. I also got him a cute blue umbrella stroller to push around. Blue strollers are hard to come by so I had to jump on that one. I have built 6 bears in my lifetime and I love it every time I go in there. I am such a sucker for that place. I told a friend that I don't need to have a girl, I will just go to build a bear and dress up a bear all girly. I don't know if she agreed with me. (wink, wink)



K, anyone who watches this show knows what I am so happy about. Denny!!! I am still a little lost about what is happening with Izzy right now but I love to see those two together. They never got to have a real romance so I happy to see it, even if she is losing her mind!

I have rediscovered Kiddie Kones this week. For $1.75, I can get an XL Diet Coke with extra ice, and 3 kiddie kones. Who could pass up that every afternoon at about 3pm? Not me and my boys!

I hope each of you had a good week! Now tell me what you are lovin' right now!

The Best Weekend Ever!

It was our 6 year wedding anniversary yesterday and Kev surprised us and took us for a weekend in Park City! We stayed in the most amazing condo at Deer Valley which during the on-season, is rented out for $1000 a night. It was that amazing! (He got it from one of his customers and we only had to pay the $60 cleaning fee!) It was 2 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms, 3 indoor Jacuzzi tubs, a huge hot tub on our balcony, plasma TVs everywhere and a gorgeous kitchen. I loved everything about it! Kev dropped me off at the spa for 2 hours where I was treated to a mani & pedi, the best of my life actually. And other than that and hitting the outlets, we had a wonderful weekend of relaxing and enjoying our little family. Who knew you could have such a fun anniversary get-a-way with your kids :) They were angels, something that hardly ever happens! Thank you for everything, Kevy, it really was a weekend to remember!

We had a blast at our annual Madsen Family Halloween Party. It is so fun for everyone to get dressed up, even grandparents & great grandparents! Kev went as a rocker, I went as a "leopard girl" as Troy would say, and the boys were bats. Brett, Jenna & Maddox went as a Mexican Family with stuff from their trip to Mexico! Even Maddox had a poncho. I kissed his little face so much I got makeup all over him! It's so fun having babies in the family, and not having them be your own is even better!
