Labor Day Weekend

Before school started up and we got Brian's schedule figured out, we had HIGH hopes for a good quick getaway on Labor Day weekend. We were excited and looking up ideas...........then reality hit! Brian had a week long orientation that was over 40 hours which interfered with one of his Human Resource classes. So they decided to reschedule........and lo and behold it was scheduled for Friday night from 6-10pm. Poor guy! He had to be in orientation all day and then go through a 4 hour night class. It wasn't the best moment for us when we learned all of the information. Luckily we never booked anything and changed our plans to spending Saturday down in Salt Lake with Jan and Spencer.
We headed down kinda early and got to hang out all day. We enjoyed a lunch of never ending pasta at Olive Garden, camera shopped at Best Buy, got Spencer a new game, Jan got a new shirt, and we relaxed the rest of the night just enjoying each others company. Sunday was Kaden's baby blessing. We got up early made some yummy breakfast casseroles, got ready, and enjoyed time with family after the blessing.
We then headed to my parents house, relaxed some with them before going to visit Brian's aunt, cousins, and grandpa. It was great to catch up with them and see how things were going for them in Arizona. It is a good thing we love our families so much since we spent the whole weekend with them.

Brian made a good attempt at mimicking Kaden

I wanted a cute picture of us and this is what Brian did. Seriously he was in the most random sarcastic mood, it made for some great laughs.

Got a good one the next time

We all ate but not Kaylee, she was too excited to have some babies to love on. She put little J right to sleep

Us with the star of the day Kaden

Then we took the Poppletons back to their house and decided to come back and stay the night for old time sake. They made us some delicious hobo dinners and we got to play some games while relaxing. We got up early the next morning to go and enjoy some Founder's day breakfast and wouldn't you know it.....it was pouring on us off and on. Good thing the breakfast is worth it.

Yummy breakfast in the rain

Best picture I could get during the worse part. It poured super hard for a good 20 minutes or more. It was pretty crazy as it got harder and harder then lightened up and got harder again. We felt bad for the 10K runners who were in this crazy storm.

 After breakfast we left since the parade was uncertain and might be starting late due to the weather. We got ready for the day and then Brian headed up to Soccer. I did a few things at home that needed to be done then went up just as the game started. It was a great game and was great weather. Besides getting scared for a moment when a dog unexpectedly jumped at a kid and bite him, it was a great day with a win for the Aggies!!

After the game we then headed to the Blue Bird to use a gift card I had been given about 6 months ago. We got dinner, which was interesting, and then used the rest of the gift card to get some chocolates to enjoy later. It was a great way to end our 3 day weekend! Now we are ready to enjoy Peach Days and some football games!!!
