Code and I had a GREAT weekend in Conyers, GA (just outside of atlanta) with the Nolden family! We flew out Friday evening and proceeded to have an AMAZING weekend. We played an old fav from BYU with the kids-basically capture the flag with each person having knee highs full of flour to hit opponents who enter your territory. That's right, no claiming that you weren't tagged :) It was way fun and eventually we had to call a truce cause we couldn't find each other's flags in the dark, haha. It of course turned into "let's hit Cody with them as we walk into the house."
We went tubing down a river that was a few hours away. It was way fun and the water was so cool and refreshing-very much unlike the warm waters here in TX. There were some low tides at times that resulted in sore bottoms, but some super sweet rapids and mini waterfalls to go through as well. Code was of course awesome in coming to my rescue every time I got stuck on rocks etc. I swear I felt like a beached whale every time haha.
We ate out a few times of course throughout the weekend: IHOP and Chick-fil-a. One of my favorite parts was going for an evening walk in their neighborhood and just talking. I saw some fireflies that totally made my day-I love those! Sunday was fun-went to their ward and then Aunt Sandy, Larry, and the kids came over for a BBQ and a bazillion cookies that PJ felt inspired to make all while we were fasting...yeah...it was hard, but worth it in the end. Code and I stayed up and watched forever strong with Liz-it was way good and I hadn't seen it in awhile.
Monday we got together with Sandy and the gang again for a volley ball game that was sooo much fun! My serve was on which made it fun for me :) yeah...I'm sore from that too. Ashley was my lil sous chef in helping me make some pizza rolls that were a hit-even Don liked them which is saying something :) We visited Liz at her work (at tutti frutti) before going to the airport Monday night. Of course that's not to mention all of the card games that we played like zion's check and spades.
It was an amazing weekend and it's a little hard to come back to reality of working every day.
