Week and Weekend In Review

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last while you know that last week we voted.  This was the longest campaign I have ever lived through and boy did it seem never ending! I think that everyone was ready for it to be over...that might have been the only thing that all sides could agree one.  President Obama was re-elected.   In other news, a local candidate rented a bounce house for our precinct and I think it was brilliant.  I only wish that Lo could have enjoyed it.  Next time...

And, in case you missed the cutest voting duo in the history of the world-

Other than voting last week we also- worked, did lots of painting, had a successful cub scout activity, fed the missionaries (who are absolutely precious), had a triple date to go shooting and watch a movie.

We also got to spend time with Kelc, I'm pretty sure that I couldn't love another person more than I love that girl.  I can only hope that my Lo will be half as good as Kelc.  She is beautiful inside and out!

We visited with Bab and Roc's crew...including Roc's sister that lives out west now.  Our baby was given/snuck chocolate chip cookie, brownieand candy corn while at their house. Lo learned to click her tongue right before bed on Saturday night.  Maybe from the sugar high?! 

Today Robert was called to be the first counselor in the Elders Quorum presidency in our ward. I really love our ward that we are currently in and enjoy the friendships that we have made.

And, don't want to jinx it BUT our realtor called and said that we should be getting an offer on our house this week from the people that looked at it this morning.  We were so happy that we both cried.  So, pray for us people!

Weekend Wrap Up

This weekend we went to visit family and friends in the Capital City. 

We went to the new Mast General Store.

The Mast General Store, not sure why so grainy.

 And enjoyed ice cold beverages out of this guy.  We also got some of our favorite candies including the always hard to find, strawberry cowtails.

Cute little vintage coolers.

 We had lunch with some friends.  Then we went on a double date with my Shell and her Hubby to the shooting range and then a delicious steak dinner.  That was followed by dessert in the car and world class entertainment by their cute and sassy littles.

Shell's first time!  She did awesome.

We were introduced to "Back Injury Betty" by their oldest and we had to get a picture for our friend that just had back surgery.  He thought it was humorous.

Kids are so creative, aren't they?!

We spent the night at my parents and woke to the smell of bacon.  I present to you Breakfast A La Timbo!

Fresh blueberry syrup...yum!

We had lunch with Hubby's parents at a delicious new deli that they suggested.  I must go back to Jason's Deli ASAP!  After lunch and a nice visit we rendezvoused with my Padre to take him shooting for the first time.  We don't typically shoot that often but everyone wanted to go this weekend

and we enjoyed it both times. 

Proud of his shots.

Not pictured but still mentionable-
*Date night with Bab and Roc to see Xmen
*Family dinner on Sunday that was AMAZING!
*The "Grandbaby Talent Show" performed by non other that the grandbabies.  This show included stunts, gymnastics, cheerleading and a dance off that included my almost 4 year old niece doing a move that Jane Fonda would be proud of.
*Hubs finally getting his new glasses...they are so cute.
*Church at our old building and getting to see so many old friends.
*Coming home with a car loaded down with the rest of our new guest room furniture and other items that we accumulated along the way including an awesome new mirror.

We came home from this awesomely fun weekend to a broken air conditioner so the fun continues!
