Utah Jazz

We had a really great weekend. Thanks to Jerry's connections through work, we were able to go to the Jazz game in SLC. We left Friday around 2pm and went to Uncle Landon's and Aunt Dana's. They are the best hosts! They prepared an amazing meal and we all ate till we were stuffed. We had a great time visiting with them. They planned a "North Family Birthday Party" and we celebrated with cupcakes. They got the kids gifts, a golf set for Landon and a little sprouts cabbage patch for Lauren. They have not stopped playing the the toys. Today we asked Lauren when her birthday was and she said she already had it at Aunt Dana's. It was a great party. On Saturday we went to Cabela's and the mall. Dana and I realized the fish feeding is a bit gruesome when Landon commented the little fish looked scared...yeah because they were swimming for their lives! Sissy commented on the worms by saying, "yummy!" We went to the mall and it was quite the adventure because Lauren was not in a stroller. Not a good experience. She has a lot of energy....just ask me or Aunt Dana. We ate lunch at the Macaroni Grill and then headed to the hotel to swim. We stayed at the Radisson right next the the Energy Solutions Arena. Jerry and Landon threw the kids in the pool and entertained us all. Landon and Dana were gracious enough to watch Landon and Lauren at the hotel. We took Avery with us to the game. We had a suite to watch the game in with food and good company. We had a great time and even got to meet Thurl Bailey. Thanks so much to Landon and Dana for taking such great care of the kids. We drove home today and stopped in Springville to see Jill and Brent's new home. We are so happy they were finally able to move closer to BYU. They have a cute home and are two blocks from Clyde and Jeannette. We were also able to see Clyde and Jeannette and loved the time we spent there. They are such special people. We made it home and Landon said, "We sure made it home safely!" It was a fun weekend.
