Fall Break: Part 1

Last weekend a miracle happened. 

Drew and I got to go home to Richfield for the weekend!!! We both got Thursday through Saturday/Sunday off (Plus it was Drew's Fall Break) So we packed our bags and headed to Richfield for a fun-filled weekend!!!

We kept it a secret from my siblings and were able to surprise them when they got home from school! We picked up some french nutella-filled macaroons in Cedar City and gave them to Kambry to wish her good luck before she left for state tennis in Salt Lake. We may or may not have shared one on the way up to Richfield... ;) They were tasty!

We spent Thursday afternoon with the kids. I also got to see my best friend Tiana and go shopping with her! Lucky me, she gave me a piece of her "Better Than...Pumpkin Cake" and it was heavenly!!! It is definitely a must try. 

Friday we woke up bright and early and headed for Salt Lake at 6 a.m. I'm pretty sure the entire trip is a blur because I was soooo tired! 

We got to watch Kambry play tennis [2nd Singles] and she ended up taking third at state! Wahooo!! It was so much fun to watch her and quietly cheer her on (loud cheering is not encouraged at tennis matches, ha ha).

Later that evening we went out to eat and then spent some time at Scheel's. Wow. You can spend hours and hours there!!! It was a blast. We rode the ferris wheel, took tons of goofy pictures, and was awestruck by the sweet aquarium. I guess we're all easily amused ha ha, but it was definitely absolutely enjoyable! 

That night we all stayed in one hotel room HA! It was a party. Kinsley asked for a cot to sleep on, Drew & I were on one bed, my parents on the other, and Konner in between the two beds! The night consisted of loud snoring, and crazy siblings who sleep talk and sleep walk!! Or rather, CRAWL onto our bed in the middle of our night... creepy! Ha ha although I honestly don't remember that. Only Drew does and for some reason my mom too. Ha ha ha!! We're a special family.

Friday morning Kambry gloriously put up a good game against one of the top players in the state. We got to spend the rest of the day shopping at City Creek and then that afternoon we drove back home to Richfield and by the time we got home we were all completely exhausted.

However-

Drew took Kinsley and her friend out to the movies that night! It was so cute of him! He is such a sweetheart!!!

We drove back to St. George on Sunday night and made a stop in Cedar to say hello to Drew's parents! 

Needless to say, we absolutely LOVE our families and we love being with them!!!

Luckily this weekend we get to see them again! My family is driving down for the weekend which means tomorrow night we will have a house full of people! Wahoo!!

Life is good and fall is great!

Love,

Kate
