birthday family dinner

We get together with family for a Sunday dinner when it's someone's birthday. I am so happy and lucky to have Egan and Annie living near. I super scored this birthday cause my mom was in town too. She asked me what I wanted for my birthday dinner and that's a silly question when your mom is cooking who happens to be your favorite cook in the entire world. But salmon was decided, and salmon we had. Check out that fruit salad, it's what dreams are made of. Annie always has a birthday crown and makes a bday girl feel like gold. I wish there were more photos of everyone else, darn it.

fancy sandwiches

For Maggie's birthday that fell on a Sunday we had "fancy sandwiches"! There were all the fixings which made it challenging to make the perfect sandwich (you really only have one shot). We had such a good dinner we didn't save any room for dessert, so the angel food cake had to wait a day.

Maggie's 27th Birthday

Saturday we went to Bruges Waffles with Bethany and Lindsay who were both in town. (score!)

We headed off to the pool after for a nice time at Steiners with friends. I loved having my Rexburg girls by my side.

We met friends at Myung Ga for korean bbq and then headed to the drive in. We had a blast. I'm so happy drive ins still exist and we have one close. We watched The Purge and Fast 6. The Purge was totally scary but a perfect drive in choice. And Fast 6...no brainer, love that movie.

Sunday, Maggie's actual birthday, started out with almond oat waffles and ended with fancy sandwiches which I will share in a later post. 

Love that Mags.

I took the day off work and that always is a good idea. I woke up to texts and face time with Benson and Lindsey who are all the way over in Australia. My roommates had sweet goods on the kitchen table for me which made me smile so big. My mom picked me up and we had breakfast at Roots cafe. She brought me a plant and a balloon and gosh I love her. Next up, Amber and I got pedicures and then headed to the pool. After pool, Mags, Amber and I ate Banburry Cross donuts in honor of Donut day. Then we got ready and met a few friends for tacos at a taco stand on State st. We finished the night at the Bees game and had the best time with the best group of friends. 

The next day I ran a Utah Valley Half Marathon went out with a boy who brought me flowers and took me to Chunga's for dinner.

Hurricane, UT

9 of us took off to our friend Taylor's family's new place in Southern Utah. His house is amazing. It's middle of nowhere with this incredible pool and view. We spent the weekend doing lots of whatever-we-want. That included: a 6 mile morning run, pool time listening to some 90's jams, shooting, 4 wheeling to some dino tracks (that 10 mile ride turned my hair into a giant dirt dread), bbq lunch, reading, wood-fire pizza on the back of Dave's truck, World War Z, and more shooting.

All in a weekends work.
