Nibley

After Manti we made it to Provo... the boys liked eating at Chuck-A-Rama. In fact, Bubba said it was almost like being in heaven - he likes places that let him choose his own food and lucky for us he's a healthy eater... out of all of the food choices he was most excited about the cantaloupe and honeydew. Don't worry, he's still a little boy... you should've seen the sundaes the boys created for dessert... in one word...

huge!

By the time we made it to Brigham City Junior was starving! So we stopped at the park, the boys played, but as you can see a couple of them decided to join Dad for an afternoon nap. Who could pass up that beautiful shade and soft grass? Two things we definitely don't have in Arizona.

After the nap everyone piled back in the car for the last leg of our journey. A quick trip through Sardine Canyon and we soon found ourselves in Nibley and pulling up in front of Uncle A1 and Aunt H1's house (sounds like the flu, but we have two Uncle A's and two Aunt H's so it will have to do). We were so excited to be at our destination for the night!

It's especially fun to visit with my brother because all of our kids have a match - we both have four boys and each one has someone their age to play with - can't get better than that!

We had a BBQ that night, so here are some more picture of us eating!

(I must've inherited that take pictures of people eating gene from my Dad!)

After dinner, and a little more playing, Uncle A1 and Aunt H1 took us to the 24th of July (Pioneer Day) Fireworks at Willow Park. They showed us their secret to getting the best spot - right where they are being launched - the best part? You don't have to go early, you don't have to save spots... you just park and walk (not even that far) and you get the best view in town!

It was great!

The kids were excited when we all pulled out light sticks to play with while we were waiting. And of course, they immediately became wands and the next thing you know Harry Potter spells were flying back and forth.

It was so much fun other kids joined in too - it made the time fly.

Isn't this an amazing scene? You can almost see Hogwarts in the background - I think imaginations were working overtime here.

And then the fireworks started. Junior didn't even cry, which frankly, was a shocker - we were literally right under the fireworks.

Thanks for a great time A1 and H1 we miss you and hope to see you again soon!

And if Handsome Hubby ever gets a job in Cache Valley - Nibley here we come!

P.S. I had a great time going to the yard sales!
