Daddy's work party and other stuff

Nathan's work party was last week. They had a catered dinner and some cash give-aways and some games for the kids. The food wasn't amazing, but somehow I still ate too much (I hate it when I do that!!). Nathan knows the people he works with a lot better now, so it was fun for him to get to see his co-workers outside the work setting. I still don't really know many people, but at least I don't have to go to work parties alone like I did for so long while I was single!

S, with Daddy's help, spun the wheel for a
chance to win some cash. No luck for us this time!

One of the activities for kids was to make and
shoot little rockets. Daddy, the big kid, put
in a great deal of effort to make S's rocket.
He's very good at making rockets that shoot
really high.

Here they are with the rocket!
It shot up very high.

Afterwards S was dying to play on the playground
equipment. It's not a park if there isn't stuff to play on!

I was able to go out to lunch with my good friend Becky on Saturday. It was really nice to have some time to hang out with a friend. We visited the art gallery at Thanksgiving Point and she started talking to the director there and we ended up getting to see some of the stained glass windows they've made for the Rome and Payson temples. They were beautiful!!

Nice antlers, Becky!

My sister, Lynda, came to visit my parents and
S had so much fun playing with Lynda and
her son and daughter.

Little cutie! Sometimes her crib is so full
of stuffed toys I don't know how she can
sleep in it!
