And a Diet Coke, Please...


No, this is not for our frequent movie marathons (we just had another one this past week...we saw Super 8 and Green Lantern), but it almost could be.

This is how much popcorn it takes to feed 300+ girls at Girls Camp for our Movie Night.  My storage room has the lingering "dirty-sock" popcorn smell.  Mmmmmmm!


Side note:  don't you just love how Jessie blends in with the couch?  Good thing she came color coordinated with my living room color palette!

Sugar Buzz


Plates and Palates
$4.95/slice
Oh My Heavenly Goodness!

We had these guys cater Kelsey's wedding, and I was never so happy for leftovers!  It is one of our favorite restaurants in town, and after hearing Soni and Treion and Kim gush over the coconut cake, I had to stop in for a take home slice.  The piece is big enought to share with four people, but I may have to hide it and have a bite here and there over the next few days...it is THAT good!

A New Tradition is Born

It was a long day of unloading the houseboat down at Lake Powell, and loading up the speedboat and jet ski's and then making the 7 hour drive back to Bountiful.  But the promise of a barbecue feast, organized by Steve, at the end made it all worth it.  Gathering together for burgers, dawgs, homemade ice cream, watermelon, potato salad and FIREWORKS was a fabulous end to our annual Mordue Lake Powell trip. Thanks, Steve for the BBQ, and thanks Bam and Dandad for the fun memories of Powell over the past 22 years!


We had the best seats in the house, without the frustration of finding a good parking space, for the annual 4th of July show put on by North Salt Lake.  Everyone agreed that this would have to be our new 4th of July Tradition.
