Our Weekend Apart...



This weekend Morgan, his dad and brother Jake flew to California for the weekend to watch the ASU USCLA game with a few of the "beach week" guys. They left late Thursday night so they could play some golf (40 holes) on Friday before the Saturday game. He "says " he had a lot of fun but I don't really see how thats possible since I wasn't there...;)


So while Morgan was in California, I took off to Show Low to spend the weekend with my family for my nephew Tates 4th birthday

The weather was beautiful!! So Tate, Corinne, Courtney and I decided to go on a little bike ride. Notice how excited Corinne is about having to borrow her younger cousin Porters bike :) She said she "felt stupid riding a little boys bike" and she didn't want people to see her. We told her that no one cares and that she actually looked cute on it!


So we set off


But didn't get a half way down the street when she just couldn't take the humiliation anymore! So we stopped to talk about it...i tried riding the little bike so she could ride the big one but she couldn't even get on the big one and i just about broke the little one! Sweet Taters said to Annie "here mom, give Corinne my bike, i'll ride Porters" but that didn't go over real well with Corinne...so the solution?? Corinne rode on my handle bars and we had a 10 minute bike ride instead of a 30 minute because her legs and bum were going numb. So we just came home and hung around....

We played outside in the cold! (notice we're wearing sweaters!)


Then got the chitlins bathed after a long hard day of play...

And soon, they were OUT



Then we got up Sunday morning and headed home. By this time I am SOOO ready to see Morgan.... Also, Maddy noticed she had her FIRST lose tooth during breakfast so she worked really hard the whole way home to get it pulled so she could show her mom and dad...


She didn't quite make it by the time we got home...but when they came over for Sunday dinner it was GONE!! Yay Maddy!



Then FINALLY I got home to Morgan! We went over to my parents for dinner that night and the babies (Isabella and Olivia) were soooo happy to see him as well! They're so cute...everytime they see him its always such a big deal they SCREAM "MORGAN!!!" like they haven't seen him in years haha they sure know how to make a guy feel special :)

The Mexico Trip...

Well...Morgan, my brother Dave, his wifey Jess and I went to Mexico this weekend and had a BLAST. The weather was absolutely IDEAL. We watched conference both days...swam, ate out, played games, the works. Now i did bring my camera so i could have some new things to post HOWEVER once we got there and i pulled it out to take a picture i realized that i FORGOT to put back in my MEMORY CARD....GAH!! I was so frustrated...then i thought, "oh thats okay! i'm sure jess remembered hers" and she did!! BUT her memory was FULL hahaha so NO PICTURES :( what's really sad is it was such a beautiful weekend i could have had some really great ones...ALSO to warn those of you who might be traveling down south in the near or semi-distant future...we left to come home on sunday afternoon around 2:30, got to the boarder town around 3:30 (which is average) and then we WAITED for 5 1/2 HOURS!!!!!!!! the line was REDICULOUS! we moved probably 5 miles in those 5 1/2 hours...THEN we drove the rest of the 3 hours home. Sooooo 9 1/2 HOURS later we got home! You know what though....it really wasn't a HORRIBLE expirience...it went by suprisingly...well....not "fast" but it didn't seem as long as the drive to UTAH (which from home is about as long). I'm just grateful that the 4 of us like eachother! Needless to say, the weekend was still worth it! We really did have a good time. Thanks Dave and Jess!!
