Weekend with Family

Labor Day Weekend was one to look forward to.  Not only is it the last holiday weekend of the summer and it's still warm outside.  This year we had family come to visit.  It has been awhile since we have had visitors either due to COVID but everyone is busy with their families.  Sarah & Mike came through town on their way to Las Vegas for Sarah's birthday.  

We each took Friday off to enjoy the day showing off our little part of the country.  We went for a drive from Tech Drive to Sand Hollow.  We had lunch at Poncho & Lefty's for a late lunch with Ryder tagging a long. 

We were all tired but made plans to get together for breakfast the next morning at Bishops.

Dave, Sarah, and Mike

Dave received some family pictures from their aunts that Sarah had never seen before.  Copies need to be made for everyone to have.  Stopping at Steamroller Copy Center before breakfast.  They would work on them while we had breakfast.  We got the call they were ready.  It was a race as to who could get there first to pay for them.  Dave decided to call ahead and pay for them over the phone before we arrived.

Sibling Standoff

It was interesting to watch these two fight over who should pay.  Can't imagine how these two would have survived if they grew up together?  They are both so generous and competitive.  Mike & I stood off to one side and them them have their fun.

Looking at the order.

One problem appeared when we got them out to look at.  

No wonder they were all done so fast.  There was only one copy of each picture. The double sided pictures didn't match correctly.

Take them back or deal with what we have?

Sarah took the copies with plans to get them straightened out and copies for the whole family.

Still Family

Even with the picture fiasco they were still smiling.

I sure wish I had snapped more pictures.  We had a great time laughing, talking, and learning more about each other.  I love this family and how accepting they are of us.  They also give the best hugs.

Sunday night we had another surprise visit from Randy & Janelle on their way home from Las Vegas.  They had been down to the BYU Football Game and visiting Janelle's family.  It was great to spend time together and catchup.  We loved seeing how their kids keep growing.  They must be feeding them the same stuff we do since ours keep growing as well.  We dashed Kason's dreams of taking home the fun Nerf guns he found stashed away in the basement.  I convinced him that they would be here the next time to visit.  

What an exhausting weekend but oh what fun to visit with our families.  The let down after everyone left was a little depressing since who knows when the next visit would be.
