Yard work with Leroy

On Saturday Leroy came over to help me do some work in my parent's yard. We were in charge of putting some sort of weed prevention pellets into the garden and then raking it into the dirt, then after that we put soil pep on top of it, and smoothed it around. I also added some pictures of my parent's yard cause its looking awesome.

Bowling

The other night Brady and I went bowling with some of Brady's friends. It was awesome we bowled three games, and totally rocked it :) ok we really didn't do that well we bowled in the low 100s all three games. Here are a few pictures.

Joseph Smith, Red Robin and Leroy Rawls

So if you don't know who Leroy is let me give you some background. I used to live in an apartment that was in the Kimball Ward in Layton, UT. The Kimball Ward was a lot of fun, and I was in the Elder's Quorum Presidency (Yes I used to introduce myself as "AJ Webb Secretary in the Elder's Quorum" Why you ask? Because I'm just that awesome!) Anyways President Justin Cheney bless his heart decided that I needed extra work because working full time, going to school full time, being a newlywed and being "AJ Webb Secretary in the Elder's Quorum" just wasn't enough to do... I was finding myself with so much extra time... (Justin if you're reading this I forgive you, I actually wouldn't change that situation for anything... well most days :oD ). So like I was saying President Cheney decided for my home teaching companion I would be with a one Leroy Rawls... who just so happens to be the coolest guy in the world, he is in his late 50's he moved to Utah from Virginia after he was baptized and he is special needs, but very high functioning. I was also Leroy's home teacher, it was nice because I got my home teaching done by hanging out with my home teaching companion... although we had some other families too because obviously Leroy can't home teach himself! In anycase Leroy and I became very good friends, and I haven't seen the guy in a while so I called him up yesterday and we made plans to go to Salt Lake and watch the Joseph Smith movie (he has wanted me to go with him to it for around 2 years but I never had time... funny thing, I have lots of time now). So we went down and watched the Movie and it was awesome, then he and I and Brady went to Red Robin and had dinner, and let me tell you Leroy can really put food down! That is why I chose Red Robin (bottomless fries... and did I mention they are heavenly?) So we eat at Red Robin, and Leroy gets Fish and Chips... and then a refill on fries, wanted another order of fish (talked him into a third helping of fries), an ice cream sunday and a fourth serving of fries. I think if we hadn't been waiting for him to finish around the second helping of fries he may have kept going... not sure... glad we didn't find that out. :o) (btw our waiter was super slow with the last order of fries I swear it took longer to get for us than our meal... of course by that point we had already paid our bill so there wasn't too much for him to worry about, he'd already gotten a pretty good tip... cause I tip well... its a bad habit I guess?) So after Leroy finished dinner I dropped him off at the Kaysville theater to watch a movie, then he called for a ride home, but only after he goes to a second movie :) Anways it was an awesome night, and totally worth it when I was driving to Kaysville and Leroy turned and looked at me and said "You know... you're my best friend." It was awesome! The pictures are of us on our way to Red Robin and while waiting for Leroy to finish his last batch of fries. I always look like I'm straining in self taken photographs... Very strange...

The Alley Of Fun!

That's right the family went bowling for FHE, of course only after we went to the Pizza Factory of course! As always we got the swirly breadsticks, which may be the very best breadsticks that have ever been created!
Bowling was quite competitive as you may have guessed, even Kenedy was trash talking, she came up to me and with a mouth full of M&Ms said, "I'm gonna win!"
Of course everyone was trash talking, the most used trash talk was of course Mike, who started saying "You're gonna fold like a cheap tent made in China!"
Even with the trash talk little Lincoln was having fun he was walking all over the place, we started counting his steps the most he went without falling was 48 steps. Quite impressive! I added a nice action shot of him taking a few steps.
It was a great FHE thanks everyone! Love you all!

Chuck E Cheese

Today was Saturday... and so far the weekends have not been very good to me. But today wasn't that bad, I had the puppy and he woke me up this morning with lots of kisses so I couldn't really sleep in very late. After I got up Kenny and Lincoln came to visit cause tomorrow is Heidi and Mike's anniversary and being that its Sunday they went and celebrated it today so we watched the kids for them while they shopped and went to dinner! So I set up the trampoline for Kenny and Lincoln and Mr. Akerman even got up on the tramp and played. I forgot my camera but I went to my friend's house and hung out for a little while, they were having a pool party and it was great to see some friends that I hadn't seen in a while! Then tonight we took Kenny and Lincoln to Chuck E Cheese's and played games, ate pizza and rode the rides! It was awesome! So this Saturday was a lot more eventful and wasn't quite as hard as the last few have been! Thanks everyone for an awesome day!

Birthday Party

Today is my nephew's first birthday party, and thursday is another one of my nephew's 9th birthday. So we celebrated their birthdays today together! We had sloppy joes, and cake and ice cream. And got to watch my nephew dig into his first birthday cake. Afterwards Brady and I played 21 and I won 21 - 0. It took us forever to finish the game and then our nephews wanted to play, so as tired as we were we tried our best to play again and afterwards we went home. I posted some pictures below.
