Boys, Boys, Boys

This weekend was a busy one for us, and the only day we didn’t have plans for was Friday.  We decided to meet up at the Gateway after work to run some errands.  We picked up the items we needed and ate some delicious sushi after at Happy Sumo.  We drank hot miso soup while we planned our anniversary weekend, which can’t come soon enough!  We ended the night with a late movie, where we happened to be sitting on the same row with old friends, what are the odds?

Saturday we went to the Utah vs. Arizona game…which didn’t end well for us, obviously.  It was so fun to get bundled up though and see everybody!

We haven’t had a time to get the entire family together for Zach’s birthday, so we tried after the game.  I told Zach he could go wherever he wanted to go…Thai Food, Mexican Food, anywhere!  My family is rather picky, but they always make exceptions for Birthday dinners.  But where did Zach choose to go?

Yep.  Sizzler.

It was honestly a disaster from the start.  Have you ever tried to seat 12 people at a Sizzler?  Camron got impatient real quick and became difficult to control.  Then he started dipping his fingers in all of the different concoctions at the salad bar, including whatever pudding was within his reach.  After our delicious dining experience, I begged Zach to take me to IKEA to get something I have wanted for WEEKS!  This amazing, state-of-the-art make up organizer.

Ok, so it is really not that amazing, but it is cheap and has enough compartments to store all my crap!  When Cam heard about our little field trip, he wanted to come along too.  It soon became a family affair.  So we all drove down to IKEA to get my stupid plastic organizer.  While there, Cam found the little cafeteria area and convinced my mom to buy a whole pan of cinnamon rolls.  It was the highlight of his week, and the sweet guy at the register even gave him “special gloves” to carry them out with.

Sunday morning, Zach’s brother Chad asked us to watch little Luke for the day.  So while Zach drove their family to the airport for their Disneyland trip, I got to take this little man to church with me.

He was an absolute angel during Sacrament and Sunday School, but when Relief Society hit…he got tired and hungry.  After church we changed into comfy clothes and cuddled in my bed while watching some weird baby show about talking tractors.

Luke apparently thought the show was not worth watching either, and fell asleep within 10 minutes.

We had a blast with Luke all day, and feel as though we have a little tiny window into what parenting is like.  From chasing them to stay away from the salad bar, to running around the halls in church…our weekend was basically spent running after little boys.

After we took Luke home, Zach packed his bags for a jet convention in Las Vegas.  We’ve been married for 3 years and I still tear up when he leaves, even when he is gone for only FOUR DAYS!  Yeah, I am still that crazy clingy wife.  Zach always comes home to a crazy clean house (out of sheer boredom) and a random new project I have conjured up.  So basically I am counting down until Thursday until I can spend time with MY BOY!

Boys…can’t live with ’em (Sizzler), can’t live without ’em!
