AN ALMOST PERFECT WEEKEND

10 REASONS WHY LAST WEEKEND WAS "ALMOST" PERFECT



1. Went to dinner with our long lost friends TJ and Kim and their cute little Jackson. Thanks for meeting up with us guys. I'm thinking next time Tooele and the tank museum.

2. Visited with Grams (no picture...but you can see her in her cute boots if you scroll down a few posts).



3. BYU 55 UNLV 7. Now this is where the "almost perfect weekend" comes into play...I really could have used a shut out, but with the way this season has gone I will take the 7 points and still be happy about it. It almost felt like the good ol' days of BYU football was back...almost

4. TCU 47 Utah Utes 7. Again a perfect weekend would have included a Utah shutout, but I will take the spanking Utah received from TCU and be happy...very H-A-P-P-Y! I have said all season that Utah is over ranked and that they haven't played anyone to deserve their high ranking in the polls. A big thanks to TCU for proving I was right. Oh happy, happy day. (Side Note: Rachel do NOT let Nate read this post. thanks love me).

Dear Utah Utes,

Thanks for sucking.

Love Heidi

ps. the big feet are mine and yes I have HUGE feet.

6. Erik's birthday party. The celebration called for pizza, ice cream and brownies. My favorites. You would have thought it was my birthday. Thanks for being born Erik!

ps. this picture is a total stage. Kami was too slow on the camera trigger so he had to fake it.

7. Accidentally running into a new FroYo store while shopping for game treats in Provo. A hidden gem I tell you. Besides the fact that it was one of the cheaper stores in Utah at $0.35/oz, they had 16 DIFFERENT FLAVORS. At least 1/3 of the flavors (i.e. New Orleans Praline Pecan, Creme Brulee, German Chocolate Cake, Banana, etc.) I haven't seen at any of the other FroYo stores. Not only were they different, but they were good.


In case I haven't mentioned this before...Clayton just loves to have his picture taken.

The wall tile job looks like something you might see on the floor of a bathroom, but the yogurt made up for what the decor lacked.

Happy wife makes Clayton happy

8. Extra hour of sleep and 9:00 church. Most people complain about daylight savings. If I had to go to my 1pm ward on this particular week I would have complained too. 1 pm church on daylight savings is like 2 pm church. Doubly awful whammy. However, this year it worked in my favor. We had to be in Ogden for a baby blessing at 9am. So extra hour of sleep AND 9 am church with the rest of the day to ourselves. Beautiful.

9. Sunday nap. Sunday nap isn't something I get very often, so when I do get it I treasure it. Sadly this picture isn't of me...I don't own a hammock. wish I did. First I need to plant two big trees. Oh how the nap was heavenly. So fitting for a Sunday. Although when I woke up my first sight was of Austin Collie of the Indianapolis Colts (formerly of BYU) strapped down on a stretcher. I thought he had died. Tis not so. Just a concussion.

10. Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Bread. Yep made another batch at the request of my husband. Man that stuff is good.

It TOTALLY WAS a great weekend. LOVED the BYU creamed them and LOVED (almost as much if not more) that UTAH SUCKED it UP! hahahahaha. HILARIOUS! I know nate won't ever read this so I have no worries!

I really wish I was there to try the new froyo place. Do you think it is as good as yogurtland and menchies?
