The day finally arrived. Ever since we moved in I have wanted new carpet and 6 years of pet ownership has proved that more true than ever. I really love it! Feels so new and clean! Heres a stair pic for comparison but the new carpet is everywhere that there is carpet.
Makenna and I got to make a quick trip to Utah to visit Brayden and just have a little fun! We arrived on Friday night and spent that evening visiting my cousin Ginger. We went to dinner and then made some pumpkin chocolate chip cookies to take to Brayden. Saturday we woke up and went to breakfast with Ginger at Kneaders. Then we drove down to Provo. Brayden wasn't back yet from camping so we killed some time shopping (which was fabulous). Then we met up with Brayden, went to lunch with him and his "girlfriend" Kaitlyn, did some shopping at Walmart, did a little walk up to Bridal Veil Falls, ate some cookies, and then went to the Hemas which is where I was staying. They are friends of ours that used to live in Texas. That night Makenna did a sleepover with her friend Evie Biggs. Sunday we visited and went for a hike up into the Uintah mountains. Then later we got to see Braydens dorm room and spend more time visiting. It was a really lovely trip and so nice to spend some time with Brayden again. We miss him but we are glad he is having a good ol time at BYU (despite Covid trying to ruin all the fun).
Makenna had a fabulous 16th birthday! She started the day with crepes and presents. Then she skipped school to spend the morning at the DMV and walked away with HER DRIVERS LICENCE!!! Wahoo!
Over the summer Makenna got a job at "The Cookie Rack." Its a super delicious and cute shop that we heard was opening in Prosper. So Makenna started to work a bit at the Frisco location until the Prosper shop opened and now she works just five minutes from home.... and she gets to bring home all the extra cookies when she works a closing shift. So we have all been enjoying her new job ;)
