A weekend of bliss!

We got to go the Washington for Memorial Day weekend.  It went with Jon and Nicole (her first Washington visit) and Kirsten and Mike met us there.  It was wonderful to be everyone.  We missed Laurel who happens to be "studying" in Mexico for the spring term.  But come July, the whole family will be together and we are pretty excited for that. I haven't been home since we got married, since Christmas was in California.  We've seen Mom and Dad a lot in Utah, but there is just something special about going home and seeing your neighbors and smelling your house, and sleeping in your bed, and eating the best of Mom's masterpieces for 4 days :) Ahhh, home sweet home!



2 beautiful boys who love each other :)  It was so fun to be with these guys this weekend.  They are growing up fast and I'm amazed at how smart they are!  Really are little men :)

This is what the men do when the women are gone...RISK


This is what the women do when the men play risk :) For Nicole's birthday Mom took us.  It was fun and we're hoping it'll stay for Jon and Nicole's wedding. Starting at the bottom you see my toes (cute eh?) then to the left we have Mom's, then Kirsty-pie's, then Nicole's.  Cute toed women to woo our men :)

Handsome, aren't they? Kirsten and I did quite well :) 

I love this guy!  One of the coolest :) He's an awesome slalomer I found out.  We miss him and had fun spending the weekend with him. 

SOOOO happy to be on my river!


Goin' with the boys.  They loved it :)  I think Kirsten and I were more scared than them because we knew how cold that water actually was.

I love him. 

Nicole can officially become a Burrup--she learned to slalom :) She was the bravest of us all I think.  That water was cold! But she got up pretty quick! Love that girl!

Adventures!--flat tire!  It was already pretty late, but we found a 24-hour truck repair. There we met a man with a hook for a hand and heard all kinds of weird stories from the man who ended up not being able to fix our tire.  It was pretty exciting.  He did fill our spare up with air and we stayed the night at my mom's uncle Tom's house.  Haha...what a night.

  1. A hook for a hand? That's sweet! I think I'd be too tempted to start chanting, "Hook, hook, where's the hook...!" :)
