A Peek Into Our Week...
Hannah and Brie went with the Young Women
to do baptisms at the Draper Temple at 6:15 in the morn.
Brie's first time!
π
*****
Had Classic 1950/60 day with some of the kiddos...
We watched an episode of Andy Griffith,
I Love Lucy, and Gidget..
some of my fav's growing up...
We had lunch at In-n-Out...
Couldn't think of anywhere else more 50's classic to eat than that....
π
This was our highlighted read for the week....
{such a cute book that tells about her life}
*****Brie had mishap with the brace wire..
Swimming with the cousins...
Dinner group at Soho Food Park..
I tried Smoke-A-Billy BBQ & Grill for the first time.
Delicious!!!
Ky had some fun hangouts with missionary peeps!
One jaunt to Provo...
*****
On the weekend the hubs took Emma, Brie and Kateto one of our favorite Mexican restaurants and to a movie...
Kate loves Cantina's jicama salsa like me ;)
The rest of us were in Vegas to see the Backstreet Boys.
{sorta die!}
π π
On the way down South we took a jaunt to Kolob Canyon.
With a little off-roading detour.
Goodness me... hilarious!
It's so beautiful there!
We had plans to eat at a highly recommended Mexican restaurant in Vegas.
But there ended up being an hour wait.
We had no time for that!
So we went across the street to In-n-Out.
Concert time!!!
Can't believe these guys have been around
20 + years
20 + years
I have a memory of jamming out to them in the late 90's in the kitchen
of our Riverton home
holding little Emma...
{I wish she could have come!}
π
I LOVE SO MANY of their songs!!!!
Shape of My π
being one of my all time fav's!!!
They've aged well!
π
and man can they still dance!
They showed this 12 minute intro video of clips of their
old songs/ music videos before the concert began..
We found it on YouTube!
LOVE IT!!!!
One of the best things about this concert was there were no guest singers!
{I can't stand it when you have to wait an hour to hear who you came to hear sing}
After the intro video they came out and started the show....it was FABULOUS!!!
Got the awesome opening on tape!
The girls were in heaven!
These guys know how to put on a show.
It was FANTASTIC!
{We would go to another one of their concerts in a heartbeat.}
Even though I think Vegas is one of the ickiest places on Earth
this adventure was sure a fun one.
Some sightseeing the next day before we headed home...
It was so fun to taste test all these international soda's at the Coke a Cola Factory
There were some yummy ones.
The Bon-Bon Anglais from Madagascar was my favorite!!
A little souvenir for Kate.She collects shot glasses of all things...
π
Loved this place!
800 Degrees Pizza on the Strip.
On the homefront...
My fav meal of the week was G-ma's Sunday lunch for us.Chicken Cordon Bleu, brussel sprouts etc...
Helped with family pics for my sister's family Sunday night at the farm.
The hubs, Brie, Kate and I slept out in the hammocks in the backyard that night...
That made for a most interesting night's sleep.
π³
I came in the house at 6:30 in the morn and went to bed..haha
Hannah and B learning how to hang tarps for their upcoming Uintah over-nighter
*****Our 4th Celebration!
At the good 'ole town parade!
The funniest part was that the hubs had to be
IN IT
with his school board duties.
He's not really a fan of parades in general.
He'd rather have a cavity than be in one....
π
but he made the most of it...
AND he had his own personal cheering section.
My nephew's family is here from Texas. His wife got up at 2:30 in the morn and parked her van and roped off a huge area for all of us!
It was great!
Caught Kyleigh's pretend boyfriend on camera
{she and one of Hannah's buddies have a longstanding inside joke}
Back at home...
we had our traditional KFC! π
Kyleigh hung with some friends in the afternoon...
The girls and I made BBQ s'mores in the oven...Brie made gluten free cookies...we used those instead of graham crackers.....
Lit them up!
That evening we staked out our firework spot early...
We enjoyed the fireworks with my brother's fam, the hub's sister's fam, and some of Hannah's friends...
Fun night!
which included some sparkler action...
Kate's featured book for the week!
{This book is darling!}
