Weekend Update

I had a fabulous weekend! My sister Aimee, her boyfriend Jack and my nephews were in town from Dallas. I hadn't seen them since October...it's so hard to have them live so far away.  We started off with lunch at Pat's BBQ.  SO good!  Jack said it even rivaled Texas BBQ so if you enjoy lots of meat (and who doesn't??) it's highly recommended.

Braden enjoyed his rib

The rest of the day we hung out in the sunshine, dug some holes and ate graham crackers.






Spiderman made an appearance and helped plant some seeds


Later I took Aimee and Jack out to Murphy's to meet some of my friends.

Me, Aimee, Jack, Monty


Some of you may remember my old friend Ryan! He was in town from Austin for a wedding. I missed him! We're still BFF after all these years...


Aimee hadn't seen Ryan in years...this is how she shows her love


Even Scottie dropped by and graced us with his presence


Jack sandwich


Mont did a nice impression of Ryan


Here's his impression of Sonny from a few weeks ago. Monty will have to be his proxy since Sonny was lame and went home early to go to bed.


Ry tired to fix my hair...a bit too edgy for me


Mabe and Les


Monty and Allen have become really close since that one night at Sound


Friday afternoon we drove up Little Cottonwood Canyon. Jack had never really seen big mountains and he was impressed!

Mack made a snow angel

Friday night was the Jazz game and they kicked the Spurs' asses!


Saturday afternoon we went bowling. When Macklin says his nightly prayers he has asked God very politely to let him go bowling so we had to go!


Paige had the distinction of having the lowest score the first game and the highest score the second game


Braden tried to bowl, but the ball weighed more than he does


Later I was off to Ryan's niece's wedding. I had to go all the way to Utah County and reception was outside on the damn rooftop! But I got to dance later so I was ok with it.

Ry and his sister Allison


This could be our family if we were still together like it was 1995


I dragged Ry out to the dance floor and he was not amused
