Last year in his 20's

Happy 29th Birthday Brandon!

I hope you had a great day, even though we ended up having to speak in church on your big day.

Birthday Breakfast included, French toast, eggs, sausage, & fruit smoothie.

The athletic director asked Brandon if he would officiate at the Jr. High School football games. I had to swing by on his first day and get some pictures!

The people here really take football seriously. I told Brandon "What goes around, comes around". All those years of you yelling at the referees it going to come back to haunt you.

It is also my nephew Lincolns 5th Birthday! He had a STAR WARS BOWLING party. I wish I could have been there. Brittany rented a FOG machine and had it running as well as a STAR WARS soundtrack when Darth Vader and the Storm trooper showed up.

Onion Days - Labor Day

A LABOR DAY family tradition has been to go to Payson and celebrate at the "Onion Days" Parade & Carnival. Grandma Grace loves it and I guess the little kids enjoy it too.

Watching the Parade which has actually has turned into a big commercial. Everyone put a big poster of what their business is, on the back of their BIG RED TRUCK.

After the parade Grandma always hosts a nice BBQ on her patio. Since I had been living in Southern California it has been years since I have been able to be apart of it.
Lots of Yummy BBQ food!

Grandma bought this huge, heavy hula hoop years ago. It was one of those work out schemes that if you do this for 15 minutes a day you can burn an outrageous number of calories. I don't know about that but it was entertaining while we waited for lunch to be ready.
