Wonderful Weekend

This weekend was great. My parents came up to Flagstaff to visit Race and I so we hung out with them and I got to chat with my mom for three days straight {usually I just call my mom thirty times throughout each day}. I love my parents. In fact, a year ago on Sunday my Facebook status was, "I love talking to my parents." I told my dad that and he asked me if that is still true. I said, "Of course it is!" Does anyone else just love talking to their parents? Sunday was dubbed wear-a-fancy-hat-to-church day so Teal {Race's sister}, Ellie {Race's cousin} and I went hat shopping and didn't buy any hats because we're cheap and didn't really find anything we loved. But I did get three shirts and a really cute watch! I am loving my watch and hearing the itty bitty tick of the second hand. I know, random. I got some Nutella and have been eating it with bananas and Cracklin' Oat Bran cereal all weekend and all week so far {I'm actually going to do a tutorial on how to make my little banana, Nutella, Cracklin' Oat Bran creation. Mostly it will just give me a good way to test out the "tutorial waters"}. My dad and I played some Michael Jackson: The Experience on the PS3 Move. It was awesome. I love that game. And it may or may not have been some of the only good exercise I got all week. Yeah, I need to work on that. Anyway, it was a wonderful weekend. How were all of your weekends? What was the most exciting thing you did?

Race and I eating Panda Express/Chipotle





Race and I posing for my dad to take pictures after church. {My dad takes pictures of EVERYTHING to send to my brother who is on his mission in Bulgaria}





My mum and I before they headed home. {I love love love my mum. I wish she could come and visit me every weekend!}






A new shirt. 
"I'm like a bird. I wanna fly away!"





My new watch that I LOVE.





The only picture of my dad since he was taking all of the other pictures. My parents went on a hike while I went hat shopping with Teal and Ellie. They found a super cool horned toad lizard thing and a thunderstone!





It was a good weekend. :] Now don't forget to tell me all about your weekend!

  10. I actually got mine at Goodwill but I looked up the brand {PCA watches} on google and found tons for super cheap. You should definitely get one. I LOVE it! And I used to think I wasn't a watch person until a super cute sister missionary wore super cute watches all the time and I just knew that I needed to get into watches. Now you can be that sister missionary for someone else! :]

  14. Sounds like a great weekend! Watch out for nutella though. I spent a semester finishing off a jar and have yet to lose the "extra love" it bestowed around my middle.
