Mom & Dad's Visit!

This weekend Mom and Dad came to visit! It was a very quick trip...but a wonderful trip indeed!

They came over Saturday afternoon and got a quick tour of our house. After visiting for about an hour Dad and Brandon went on a gun store spree and Mom and I went to Costco and did enough grocery shopping to last us the rest of the year! After grocery shopping, Mom and I did a little coat shopping for Dani and Am...unfortunately we had no luck finding them coats...I did, however, find two that I liked :)

After a few hours of shopping we met back up with the boys and headed out to Salt Lake for dinner at The Cheesecake Factory! Luckily there was a bit of a wait so Mom and I walked around the mall while the boys admired the tools in Sears. Dinner was amazing and of course we left the restaurant stuffed to the brim.

On Sunday Mom and Dad came to our ward for church. We stayed for sacrament then we went home and started cooking up a delicious dinner. Brandon entertained Dad (or vice versa) while Mom and I cooked a delicious dinner...pork chops, mashed sweet potatoes, steamed vegis, rice, and rolls.

I haven't eaten that much in a loooong time! After dinner we had apple pie (compliments of Dad) and ice cream (compliments of Brandon). While we were having dinner we watched Kung Fu Panda, it was Mom and Dads first time seeing the movie...the room was full of laughs!

After the movie we just sat and talked and enjoyed the rest of the evening...which came to a close waaaaay too fast. Late Sunday night came and it was time for Mom & Dad to go. I hoped that if I hugged Dad long enough then they would just decide to stay...unfortunately they both have work and kids and a life at home in California :(

They are now on the road back home and I am sitting in my lame Philosophy class pretending to take notes....if you are reading this Mom or Dad...feel free to turn the car around and come back for another day or two...or twenty :D
