Busy Weekend

What a weekend! My weekend started on Friday. I was able to work in the morning so I could go home earlier. Mom had the Duchesne County Fair (she is one of the ladies in charge of the home arts exhibit) and so I decided to go check it out. I got there around 6:30 pm. They had a lot of fun things. There were some exquisite leather saddles, a doll that was very life-like, some amazing quilts, and some fun photography. I had a hard time choosing a favorite. When the exhibit closed we had to count up the people's choice ballets and put on ribbons. Then Mom and I wen to go get some food. We got our food from Thacker's dutch oven food. It was good! I guess Mom's been going there all week because they asked her if she wanted her regular. I got her regular of chicken, potatoes, corn on the cob, and a roll. Yum!

After we made it home I called Emma to catch her up on all the happenings of my life and to see how Alabama and her first week of teaching went. It was fun to catch up with her! Then my mom, sisters, and I just chatted for a couple more hours before headed to bed.

The next morning, Saturday, I left with my sisters to go to the Humphrey Reunion. I left my car for mom to bring to Green River later. The reunion was fun. To be honest I really only go for the food. They have a lamb fry and scones. Lamb is one of my favorite foods. This is also probably one of the shortest reunions. Everyone shows up to eat and then leave. There is some pre-meal mingling but not much after that.

Then we went over to my Grandma's to visit with her. I don't think she gets too many visitors anymore and I don't make it to Orangeville to often anymore. We had a nice visit with some stories from her past.

After that we went back to Price and stopped by Melissa's for a quick visit and to drop off some Harry Potter movies they were borrowing. They just got a piano and they wanted me to play it to see how it sounded. I think I had Dallas mesmerized by my playing ability (not that it was super great or practiced or anything). He kept moving close to the piano where he could watch my fingers.

Then we went to Helper to watch my cousin Millie in her children's play The Pirates of Penzance. It was cute and they did a great job. Unfortunately we were a little late and they did a mini version of it beforehand. Most of Millie's lines were during this. What we saw of the mini one and the main versions, the kids did great.

After that we stopped at Walmart and then made our way to Green River for the night. We chatted with Uncle Lee, Aunt Ann, Anna, and Avan for a little while. We opened Mandy's mystery Harry Potter Wands from Walmart and talked about Harry Potter and how we should have a Harry Potter party.

The next day we went to Sacrament meeting for Ross' homecoming. Welcome Home Ross! He did a great job on his talk. I am proud of him for all he accomplished on the mission. Corinne sat with me through most of Sacrament meeting. She kept stealing my sunglasses and putting them on and then taking them off and putting them back on me. She also wanted to wear my bracelet, which was really my apple watch and watch the Toy Story characters on it. At one point while she was wearing my watch she crawled over to Kara and said, "Cassy said I could have this (holding up the watch). We don't have to tell her I have it." Silly girl.

After dinner we had dinner at the Senior Citizens Center and then went back to the house for the after-party. Not everyone was able to come to the after-party so we didn't do book club. We had a nice time visiting with everyone. Ross came over and he brought some gifts for Aunt Ann and Uncle Lee. He got a handmade leather case and machete for Uncle Lee and a wooden carved bird for Aunt Ann. They were pretty cool.

As Kameron and Sydney were leaving we learned that Highway 6 had closed down due to the Coal Hollow Fire. I made the decision to go home to Altamont that night and sleep (since I hadn't slept well the 2 nights before) and leave between 6-6:30 the next morning for work. I got up with Mandy at 5:30 am and left by 6:15 to be to work around 8:00.

It was a great weekend and thanks to everyone who made it all happen! Also the photo's I'm posting I didn't take. So thanks to my relatives for letting me use your photos.
