For the first part of my visit (which bj was here for) we stayed with his parents. We ate at on of my favorite Chinese restaurants The Hong Kong. mmm I can't find any place that even come close to it here in utah. that was Thursday night. On friday BJ his dad Bryan, Me and my dad went golfing at purple sage. Man if that place doesn't make me want to jump right back to 2000! I loved living on the golf course and all the memories that come with that house! Friday night my family went to Givins hot springs :) and for anyone who has ever been there knows how ghetto it is but it is a family swimming hole!
On Saturday we went once again out to Melba for BJ's cousins boys baptism. While sitting listening to the program I was once again touched by how open people are in Idaho. The lady who did the program was so kind and dotted on each one of the kids and there were 8 kids! that's alot of dotting! We went to a dinner afterwards and got to catch up with other family that was in town.
Sunday we had dinner at BJ's parents house and Bryan and I got to stuff the Easter eggs. Let me tell ya... that is a fun job.. Jude (BJ's mom) put on a great Easter egg hunt for Carli and BJ's sister Jaime's kids which turned into a race for the adults to find all the other eggs the little ones didn't find. BJ headed back to Utah at about 5 Sunday night :( / :) now the fun begins
Monday I moved houses and stayed with my parents. Monday my mom watched carli while I went and got a manicure and my hair done. which was long over due! I haven't had my hair done since January 1st. It was so nice to be able to go and enjoy those things without Carli crying or getting into everything. Thanks mom!
Monday night I went out to Missy's house (my old babysitter) she has girls that I use to babysit :) Her oldest girl turned 15 so Amanda and I went out for dinner. It was A LOT of fun! Missy made Costa Vida taco that were amazing... I believe I had 4 tacos haha it was THAT good.
Tuesday was a nice lazy day Amanda had errands to run So I hung out with the kiddos all day outside, it made for an awesome day!
Notice how her clothes slowly came off... That my friends is a sign of a good play day! Tuesday night my whole family went to dinner for my grandpa Wayners birthday. When asked where he wanted to eat he replied with Golden Corral. Amanda and I both threw up in our mouths a little when we heard but I guess enough people complained so it got changed to Texas roadhouse! BJ was so jealous when he heard :) I guess that will teach him to bail out early! Before we went to dinner Amanda Suvee and I took the kids out to my brothers grave in Middleton. It was fun for me because I haven't taken Carli out there yet so it was her first time visiting uncle Cody! We ended the night with a nice dip in the hot tub!
Wednesday Amanda and I went into town. She had to meet with her taxes guy and I decided to have her drop me off at the Velvet Touch hair school in Nampa to get a pedicure :):) that was nice. I usually do my toes on my own but hey! I'm on vacation right?? anyway after I was done Amanda picked me up and we met up with my dad to go golfing at Farview in Caldwell. That was a blast from the past and lots of fun! That night I went back out to my friend Missy's young womens mutual activity. They asked me to come out and teach prom up-dos! I have to admit I wasn't sure if I would like it or even be good at it, but I love doing up-dos and I love doing hair and once I got up and started talking it was a blast! I was glad I got the chance to do it. When I got back my mom said Carli had a rough time... She fell a couple times and split her lip. :( Thanks Suvee
Thursday I met up with Erin my friend from high school and had lunch at Red Robin yum! It was really nice to see her and catch up but we learned that it is really difficult to catch up with three crazy kids screamin and kickin ;) Then I went out and met up with the fam who was out hitting balls at driving range in Boise called Divots. Abby my sister was there so it was nice to see her and have her see carli. From there I headed over to another friend Angelie's house. She and I were roommates right before we both got married. she has a little girl that it about a month younger then Carli named Lucy! Lucy is such a doll! We decided that they will be best friends... some how.. 6 hours apart... haha its a good thought though. From there I hurried back to Caldwell to meet up with my family for dinner and our families classic restaurant Acapulco. While I was out there I swung by a place that BJ and I "visited" while we were dating once. I wanted to see if our art work was still there and low and behold it was!! Aagain the night was finished off with a nice dip in the hot tub.
Haha I know I'm so lame. Friday morning I packed up and got on the road by ten. I was anxious to get back to my own bed and BJ! I haven't been on a raod trip with Carli in awhile so it wasn't as easy this time cause she doesn't sleep as much. She fought sleeping so hard! I was about to go crazy with her squealing and squacking around the boarder when she got real quiet. I looked in my rear view mirror and Carli as OUT! FINALLY! But when I looked at her I had to do a double take! So I turned around to get a better look .. and yup... I saw right.. Carli had fallen asleep with her gram cracker still in her mouth! haha I love that girl!
