Park City Retreat!!

My wonderful parents are in Hawaii for this cold Christmas season so we invited a few couples from our ward up to Park City to my parents house for a big overnight shin-dig. Franco and I made a delicious dinner as usual, hahaha, this time with the help of Jen & Joanna cause I was trying to pack in too much in one day so dinner wasnt quite ready when everyone arrived..oppps! Anyway, Franco BBQ'd and we all ate way too much. Then they played air-hockey, several games on the Wii and"Mormon poker" with pretzels! :) We laughed, talked, and got to know each other a lot better. We have some great friends and we are grateful we know them. Our festivities ended around mid-night when all of us knew that we weren't teenagers any more and couldn't pull the all-nighters, oh plus we all have babies. We all retreated to our quarters where they and there kids slept all night..did Andrew you ask??? NOPE Andrew got up 4-5 times cause he is a stinker. All in all we had a wonderful time and next time mom and dad go out of town we may have to use thier house again..Thanks mom and dad everyone enjoyed themselves!!




I had a bottle of sparking juice and dove chocolates in everyones room to welcome them..Franco just happened to drink the whole bottle of someone's opps!




Molly, Jen, and Jimmy serious about not losing any pretzels! Jen was snacking on the pretzels all night and Franco would say..Jen your eating the money!!! Good Ole Jen puts up with Franco...



So My grandma Bates sent my mom and dad an Exotic Fruit Basket..well since they are not home to enjoy it we did!! Franco found a coconut and was using the tip of ta potatoe peeler to poke a hole cause he wanted the juice..he was determined and hey it paid off..he got his juice out!

Still playing......
