A Fun Weekend

FRIDAY (with my mom and sister):

Our first stop:

Carl Bloch - The Master's Hand

Take the opportunity to get your free tickets

and enjoy this beautiful exhibit.  It was wonderful!

Get details here:    http://carlbloch.byu.edu/

Second stop:

Chili's for dinner

Can you believe Mom and Shelly have never had this?:

 I have a feeling they might have Molten Lava Cake again sometime.  

Yummmm.

Saturday:

First activity:

Helping at the OHS winter drumline competition and 

watching Ogden High take first place!!

Woohoo!

Second activity:

Party with these two families!

Highlight of the party:

Ally, Kaylee  and Lauralee dancing with Wii's Just Dance.

Sunday:  

Not so much fun as challenging - the power went out from 8:00 am to 11:00 am.  Needless to say, Manja was just a bit worried about how her hair was going to turn out for a 12:30 church start time.  Thanks heavens for the afternoon session.  Apparently the early ward had no power at the church - but they did get a condensed meeting schedule.

Monday:  

Beautiful snow with a bonus - Emma and James came to visit for a few hours.  And Aunt Annie came home just in time for playing in the snow!

Taylor's Birthday

So while my parents were gone for my birthday Anne and I threw a major party!! We had pizza, chips, candy, and homemade rootbeer (because I can legally buy dryice). Everything was devoured in minutes! Anne also had to practice her presentation of balloon animals for her class, so what are teenagers used for? After we made balloon dogs Brian and Jeff made some awesome balloon suits!

Three of my friends made me some cake.

A bride cake

and a Pocahontas cake  

and I got some awesome gifts.

I'm holding a weightloss shake, and as I opened it the kid who gave it to me held up a sign that said:

"Yes Taylor, this IS a fat joke!"

and that sign now hangs above my bed. 

Yay! New boxers!

We also did some sweet dance moves, played ping pong and fooseball, and watched Psych!

Well that's what happens at a band geek party!

WARM!

First trip to the park 2011

SUN, GLORIOUS SUN!

Bryan and I spent the weekend in St. George ---- only put my jacket on once, at night!

Wow, I thought I had forgotten how beautiful clear blue skies can be and what warm air felt like.

We stayed with this cute couple:

Carly and I and her sister-in-law Jenny did a little scrapbooking - all day Saturday.

And we had some great visits and dinners with Bryan's parents.'

Hurry Spring, hurry!
