Friday

Memorial Weekend

We went over to IF for Memorial Weekend. It was nice to have everyone {minus Sam & Megan, who currently reside in a deluxe condo on the lake and weren't able to get away} together for a weekend. Saturday Collin helped my dad out with some yard projects while us girls washed cars, made Skor cake, and hung out. We also had pizza and movie (tradition!) . . .and that's about all I can think of. Oh yes, I also did some shopping. And even got Collin to come along! {side note=he is Mr. I Hate Shopping until I get him into a store--then he is totally into it! And I don't mind at all because let me tell you that boy looks good in everything. I could watch him try on clothes al day .. . sigh . . . :) }
Sunday was the usual church and dinner.. then we played some games which were hilarious as usual.
Anyway, we didn't take a single picture until Monday, when we went on a big cemetary tour--the biggest cemetary tour I've ever been on! We went to 2 cemeteries (how the heck do you spell that?) in IF, one in Shelley, one in Pocatello and one in Burley. whew! Grandma came with us and we got to hear lots of great stories. What is Andrea doing in this picture?? What is Jodee doing in this picture??
I love Grandma! She is an amazing lady. Beyond amazing, actually. If I grow up to be anything like her I will consider myself very successful! She is a great example to everyone. It was great to spend the day with her!






We had to grab our picnic lunch and take it to go . . . first time I've eaten fried chicken, potato salad and baked beans in the car! I had some lessons at 5, I got to the lessons at 5:15! Cut it close!! Thanks for the fun weekend, family. We will see you again soon!
