We shot this commercial back in 2013 and I just found out Sprout Channel never used it so I am free to share it now! Look how little my girls are and my son as a newborn! Watching it makes me want to cry.

I feel I didn’t make an OFFICIAL blog post about me starting a new YouTube channel!
Every Monday and Friday at 2 pm I post a new video and it’s your lucky day because you get two videos today! My videos aren’t the best quality or edited nicely but that means it can only get better from here on as I learn more about editing and get a better camera, right? 😉 So please subscribe to my new YouTube channel!
We went to Foam Day in Lehi and it was even better than I had expected! Seriously, just loads and loads of bubbles everywhere, up to my waist! If you missed it this year, definitely check it out next year.

Cheers to the weekend and me surviving 5 days without my husband! All you single mothers & moms whose husbands are gone a lot, I bow down to you.
Just after I thought, “Oh, hey! I didn’t do so bad this time around! The kids were so good and I didn’t yell at them once!”, we decided to go to the KFC drive-thru and eat in the car with the music & the AC blasting in our faces like we have done before… when my 2 yr. old was immobile that is. This will be so much easier than eating inside at the restaurant! I thought. I don’t need to chase them around or yell at them to come sit down! I thought. WRONG.
2 yr. old spilled his electric pink Shopkin nail polish he just got at Target(can you tell he’s at home with 3 girls all day long?) when I told him firmly 14 times to not open his nail polish, causing me to scream, and I mean scream as loud as I possibly can, “AHHHHHHHH!!!”, then 2 yr. old tried to maneuver his sister to go to the back of the van, stepping on her mashed potatoes & gravy, thus a cat fight ensued with toy throwing, yelling, fighting, crying. “Breathe, Sarah. This is stretching your patience and making you a better person right now. And you’ll be blessed more than the quiet, peaceful dinner you’re giving up right now.” Good thing I had this epiphany a few weeks ago, right? (watch my YouTube video on this here)
46 mins. until my husband comes home. But who’s counting?😉

You guys, can I just tell you how excited I am about two events that are happening in Utah within the next couple of weeks? It literally is two of the COOLEST events I have ever seen. So if you are in Utah, you should definitely go, and you are so welcome if you’re finding out about it through me! I’ll take the credit! 😉
Tomorrow on July 23rd, there’s Foam Day where it’s basically a giant bubble bath!
It’ll be at 153 North 100 East, Lehi, UT 84043 from 11-4 pm. They’ll also have games, food, shopping and other fun stuff to do!
I’ve been wanting to go to this since 3 years ago when I found out about it but then I kept forgetting every year so this year I remembered and we are so going! I can’t wait. My kids are so excited
The second event is Slide The City on July 30th in Orem, Utah. We went 2 years ago and it was such a blast. It’s a giant slip and slide. They close down the whole street and you slide down a 1000 ft. long slip and slide. Need I say more?
Doesn’t it look so much fun? Slide The City is offering my readers a 20% off code: lifeisbeautiful for the triple pass. With that pass you get to ride 3 times. I would hurry because the price goes up starting tomorrow! Buy your tickets here.
If you are going to any of these events, I hope to see you there! Come say hello! 🙂

Yesterday was the best day ever.
We went to eat pho for dinner and after Aiden was done eating, he climbed on my lap, put his arms around my neck and within seconds fell asleep on my chest! Heaven!!!
I held him and kissed his sweaty head a hundred times, carried him to our car, held him while sitting in the back of our car, then when we got home, I was walking to his room to put him down when I stopped dead on my tracks in the middle of our kitchen. “This will probably be the last time he falls asleep on my chest and I am able to carry him to his bed.” When this realization hit, I squeezed him tighter and started to cry. Tears kept falling down my cheeks as my heart was breaking. “Oh, my sweet little boy. You are not so little anymore…”
I wish I could carry him all his life and he would fall asleep on my chest forever. But at 35 lbs. I have a hard time carrying my son! My sweet boy! My youngest baby!Why are you getting so big? So even though I can’t carry him physically for much longer, I made a promise to him that I’d carry him as long as I physically can, and when that day comes when he’s just too big for me to carry him, I’ll still carry him through the rest of his life by being his biggest fan, his biggest support and to always be there for him. I’ll always remind him that no matter what he does, no matter what choices he makes in life, good or bad, my love will never waiver. That he can always come to me and cry on my chest. That he’ll always be my precious, sweet baby boy. I love you more every second of my life.
