Memorial weekend

It's becoming a tradition very quickly... anytime we have an extended holiday weekend, we most likely will be found in St. George! No complaints here though!!!

We went to George Thursday afternoon with my mom, and almost instantly Zack got sick. BUMMER PART OF THE WEEKEND. Anyway, we hung out at Amanda's house that night and mostly just visited. The best part about her house is that she has a perfect little backyard that we just sat outside and talked. Perfect weather to go with it too, until those dang sprinklers turned on on us! :)
Also that night, Josh and Amanda were "sharing" those really gross, nasty jelly beans. Jared graciously took the black bean, which could have been either black licorice or skunk spray. He got the skunk and seriously he smelled terrible after that! I went with the one that ended up being pencil shavings. In comparison to skunk, it seems so mild, but I am here to tell you that I will NEVER eat another trick jelly bean again in my life! Just chewing that dang thing, the texture actually turned into pencil shavings!! Needless to say, I was awake a lot in the night feeling like I was going to throw up.



Ugh, onto better things! Friday, Amber and her kids came. While everyone was at work, we took Zack to the dr. to make sure he didn't have anything major going on (since he was having some really high temperatures, coughing, runny nose, throwing up, etc.). It was nice to hear that he had broncitis, but not fun because there is no meds to help it go away faster. Oh well, he's better now :)


Saturday we did a little swimming, shopping, golfing (Jared), Pizza Factory (a fav!), and visited Beck at her new job, The Sweet Tooth Fairy! YUM! Busy day.
Sunday we did church and then that night had a picnic. Monday we mostly hung out until we decided we should head home again. Hardest part about the weekend... time always goes so fast!




PS - Zack was in LOVE with Charlie!! He would run around the house constantly saying "Arlie, Arlie, etc." It was so cute. Then Tuesday morning when we were home and he woke up, he immediately was looking for "Arlie". Then on Wednesday when I heard him wake up from his nap, he was calling for "Arlie" to come! So cute! He loves Chars! wink, wink!
