We had another busy weekend. It started off mid-morning with MacKinzie's birthday party. She had 11 kids here for the party! We played games, hit the pinata, opened gifts, and had cake and ice cream! Everyone had fun!
Then we had just enough time to get the house cleaned up before we were out the door and headed to Meridian. There we stood out in the rain for about an hour until the "Take Charge Wedding Proposal" started. We had lots of friends and family there to support me and my other friends in the contest. Tanya, Jamie, Rena and I were all selected as contestants. Once the contest finally started, it only lasted about 5 SECONDS! I didn't win the ring, but I think I won the cake fight.... maybe not.
After the cake fight was over we headed home to BBQ with the family. Grandpa Young, Ron & Penny, Stephanie & Jerry, Mom & Dad were all there by the time we finally go home! I took a quick shower and then went to help get everything ready for dinner. It was wonderful! We had the best chicken, marinated and cooked by Tony, potato salad (Penny makes the best!), broccoli salad, beans (by Mom & Dad), fruit and dip (Stephanie's special) and yep, more cake and ice cream!Sunday was a little more relaxed, kind of....we at least stayed home and enjoyed the sunshine, when it was out. Tony put together Grayson's Basketball hoop while the kids rode bikes, collected "rolley pollies" (the are actually bugs, but don't tell Hannah or MacKinzie), threw the ball for the dog, and played the swing ball game. The sun would shine for a few minutes, then it would sprinkle rain. Overall, it was a very good day! No cake or ice cream today, thank goodness!
