Autumn likes to be held like a baby. She missed me after church.

So I got hair extensions!!

This is before.

After. Its pretty long I think. It is so thick also. I love it.

I curled it to see how it would do. The hair curls better than mine.

Sunday Dinners

Jarom and I can never seem to buy enough food for Sunday dinners. So after church we see what food we actually have and what can we make with it. One Sunday we happened to have some pork and onions. I made dumplings with flour water and salt. Yum. It actually turned out good. Do you like onions? Jarom loves them. He ate the whole thing.

Autumn seems to think she is welcome at the dinner table. She is faithful only to food. No she did not eat off my fork.

My 26th Birthday Weekend!!!

It started with my mom suprising me by coming to visit me for my birthday. I picked her up at the airport after a long day at work.

Miles for Better Smiles 5k Run

This is a bad picture but I forgot to eat breakfast before the run. We met Al and Whitney before to ride over together. Whitney was nice and gave me the other half of her banana. I felt weird taking her breakfast but she wanted me to eat it. Thanks Whitney!

That's weird, where is Jarom? Oh yeah, he decided 40 degree weather and really crazy wind was too much to walk the 1 mile he signed up for. He left for McDonalds. I didn't care. Al and Whitney couldn't beleive he ditched us all. Go Jarom!! His excuse was "it was too windy for Autumn". Meanwhile my mom is freezing by the bathrooms (they were blocking the wind) with a little sweater.

Here I am running past the pretty pond. What they didn't advertise is that we would run through dried mud and gravel first. It was the worse coarse ever.

I finished the race. This is the helper guy taking off my timing chip.

Somehow I finished 1st in my age division. I didn't meet my goal. I finished slower. I will blame it on the wind. (not really) This other girl that got 1st all around was so so fast. She left everyone in the dust.

I didn't know if I would do anything on my birthday cause Jarom is always busy so I palnned to get my hair dyed. I didn't know my mom would be coming. She came and shopped a little while I got my hair dyed. Then she watched. It took a little bit so she decieded to get her hair styled. It looked nice. I have been wanting some blonde back in my hair for a while. Brittany did a great job. Her husband goes to school with Jarom. She is so cute.

Birthday Lunch

For lunch my mom and I met Jarom and his family at Ramono's Macarroni Grill. I opened my presents there. Jarom's family got me this facial package at a spa that I had been wanting. Jarom got me a mini laptop. It is pink. I like pink right now. It is so small. I'm horrible about email and updating my blog because I never have my own computer. I always have to wait for Jarom to be home. I love it. It does everything a regular size computer does. Technology is awesome. Thankyou everyone for celebrating my birthday with me.

Jarom loves to tease Autumn.

Jarom's mom is so funny. I asked for a half gallon of ice cream and a package of oreos for my cake this year. This is what I got. She said it is every different kind they have available. I got sick the first night from eating way way way too much.

Mom and I waiting to pick Jarom up from school. He had to take his car in. It was making a funky noise.

My awesome computer. I love it.

So I decided to take my mom to the "new" to me resturant. We both enjoyed it. It was the last thing we did on the way to the airport. The funniest part is she put a hot pepper in her mouth thinking it was a bell pepper. She learned very quickly it wasn't. It was hard not to laugh. We were almost the only ones in the place and she was making a lot of noise. I enjoyed having my mom come for my birthday. Thank you mom. It meant alot!

Pho Huong Saigon

Our friend Al and Whitney have done more in vegas in the last 6 months than we have done in 6 years. They introduced us to a resturant that I love. The service is the worst. Or I should say it is different. It is so fun. I am getting better at using chop sticks. One time we ordered the wrong soup. Thats all we order is soup. The wrong soup has tendon and werid meat. In Jaroms we saw something that I could only compare the texture to tongue. Yuck. Only order the #11.

They also have a spring roll that is held together with rice paper. I love the peanut sauce.
