What a great weekend...

I always look forward to weekends. I am sure that I am not alone in this, but this week end was super fun... More so than most.

My Aunt Suzi & Uncle Wes (and family) are in town from Phoenix. I always love when they are in town because the whole family gets together for family parties. We have so much fun when we are all together with aunts, uncles & cousins.

Friday Night: We went up to Park City to hang out with our family in their town home that they own in Deer Valley. All of the cousins played games, watched movies, & played video games. All of the adults just sat around the huge kitchen table and talked and talked and talked. We finally left there at about 1:00 a.m. We were so tired but it was so much fun.

Saturday: We got up early (for a Saturday) and got the kids to their Primary Practice/Party by 9:00 a.m. They had a good time there. Steve and I came home and I got my stuff together to go scrapbooking all day and he went to work. I went scrapbooking with Natalie, Katrina, Julia, Cindy, Jenn & Patty. We had so much fun. It is always so fun to hang out all day with girls and just chat about whatever. Steve said that work was pretty slow... I am not surprised because it was snowing outside and I can't imagine buying a garage in the snow. I guess the heating business is good though.

Scrapbooking was from 10am - 10pm so I was gone all day. The kids went Halloween shopping with Karen to pick out costumes (every year that is her treat). Then they went to a movie with her.

Sunday: The kids had their long awaited Primary Program. They did such a great job. I love to listen to all of them up there. Not one of them forgot their parts. It is always fun to see all of the cute kids in our ward get up and talk in church. I love to see all of our friends kids as well as our own. We happen to have the greatest Primary Leaders in the world in our ward. Glenn my father in law has a little crush on Kelly Taeoalii (our president) and for obvious reasons... she is so much fun.

After church Steve went home teaching while the kids and I hung out at home. Then around 4pm we went to Grandma Camille's for another family party before they all leave tomorrow for Phoenix. The whole family was here except for Grandpa & Grandma (they were still in Phoenix). It really is just fun to hang out and talk to family. The kids play so good together there is never... no hardly ever any fights with them. We are finally home and I have a few minutes to myself.

I really love this blog and I really love to read all of yours who have started one... Another Challenge... there are still a few of you who are holding back and haven't started one... I won't mention any names - Lisa :) - but just start one. I am leaving to read about all of you.

Scrapbooking was lots of fun. I was a little sore from sitting in a folding chair for 12 hours, though. It sounds like a really fun weekend for you. I love family gatherings and I especially LOVE the primary program in church. I seriously look forward to it all year long!
