House Guest!!!

This weekend we have been so lucky to have had a HOUSE GUEST! Due to my parents living in town, we don't get them all that often. BUT now that my parents are snow birds and live in AZ for the winter....we got a house guest to stay with us for a couple of nights. Hip hip hooray!!!!

This wasn't JUST a house guest though, this was my OLDEST brother! We only get to see him once or maybe twice a year...if we are lucky! (He has a daughter going to USU and so he had to drive her back down after Christmas break from Oregon. )

We had a great time laughing and joking around. He is sooo funny and soo lovable! There are many years in between us. BUT the age difference really doesn't matter we have a great time. We have always been the most a like.** CRAZY alike!

My sisters came to Logan to be with him also. We have such a great time being all together. Four out of the five siblings being together all at the same time aint bad. (missed you Brad!)It is a rare occasion but a joyous one when we can. (More so for me being the baby of the family.) Believe it or not...I don't have many memories of all of my family living under one roof all at the same time. We are spaced apart pretty good. So for me...I am making LOTS of great memories to never forget. I Love my siblings and family so much!!! Even if we can get pretty crazy. I LOVE IT!!

My older sisters Cindi and Cristi and oldest brother Bret.
Visiting and laughing as always. Aaron, Davin, Bret and bro in law Reid.
When my brother came to town, he said he has been craving TWO places to eat. Both of which we made sure we hit.

*****First for lunch "Logan's Hero's" YUM YUM YUM...really the best sandwiches in town and everywhere!!!

*****Second for dinner we had to hit "Fredrico's Pizzeria" YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY. We had hoped to eat, sit, and chat together in the back room. Nope, the odds were not so good and it was reserved. Dang it!! SOOO we did the next best thing and had to sit in a bunch of different booths. SHOOT!

My brother in law Thomas, Bret, Cindi, and My niece Alysse. Of course downing all the YUMMO food!
My sister Cristi and her family!

After which...we HAD to hit "The ZONE" at Macey's for a good ol' ice cream cone and some more visiting. YAY

What else is there to do in the FREEZING COLD weather!!??

I could have sat there for hours!! REALLY. We were having such a great time. Like I said, I love my family. They are such a blessing in my life.


Sweet little Davin is sure enjoying his cone. Ha Ha...



The best and most CRAZY action picture of the evening. Ha Ha!!! Are you ready???


Us eating our cones.................
