:)


It has been a most beatiful week! Full of great times TOTALLY worth writting down! So here we go baby:

BASEBALL!!!
My my my! I get excited all over again just thinking about it! Kirk played ball with the fire department on Wednesday. I didn't realize that the Fire Department competed against other firemen from different areas. And they totally rallied! 2 winning games for St George! Kirk played awesome!! He made it home 6 times, and had at least that many RBI's! It was totally hot. Chelsey came with me to watch, it was SOoO fun! Me and that girl don't get together enough! She's so dang cute! I don't know why we don't hang out more. She also brought her man, Marshall. We celebrated by going out to ice cream after! And of course, we couldn't pass up racing each other down St George Blvd.....but it did end in lights and sirens....no ticket tho!! Gratefully! (The picture above is of us girlies at the ball park!)
MORE BASEBALL!!!!!
GooOooO Road Runners! Gotta support our school, right!? Even though they lost.... But it was still way fun! Kirks buddy on the FD was the Umpier for the game too! He had a blast yelling out all sorts of inside jokes when he made calls. And guess what!?!?! THEY HAD FIREWORKS!! I love those things!!
BRADLEYFISH
...Was soo in town for one night! He had a wedding to go to and luckily it was across the street! We love when our paths cross with family. Aint no ones we love more! He is such a popular guy... we really enjoyed Saturday morning banana pancakes together, but we def missed Miss Leah!
SUNDAY GAME NIGHT!
Marshall, Chelsea, Kevin, Susie, Kirk and me.... party right?? Heck yeah! It was so fun! Susie, that cute homemaker, hosted us for Sunday dinner and games. We brought a few dishes ourselves and HAD to do chocolate cake to celebrate SUSIES BIRTHDAY!! (Her birthday was last Wednesday, but birthday cake tastes good EvEry DaY!!) But, I think we need to make this game night a tradition, it was awesome! Between Susie showin off her six-pack, Marshall's cheerleading skills and our Chicken Roll-up Eating Champ Kirk...it was a night to remember!!
NECIA'S BRIDAL DINNER
Party at Golden Corral! To be honest, Kirk and I were a little sketchy about going there but we were totally impressed! I guess we've just had a bad experience, but dang. It was soooo good!!! Plus it was a blast to hang out with everyone from work! Kirk got to meet Necia's fiance, Alex. They were the only boys/husbands that came, THAT'S why us girls married them :) Susie and Chelsea kept us laughing until we wet our pants, as usual. And of course, it was awesome to celebrate Necia and Alex! We are soo excited for all ahead of them! :)
RED, WHITE & BLUE
Happy Memorial Day! We both had the day off which we are always soooo grateful for. SOoo, to celebrate Memorial-ness, we decided to go to the cemetary. No, we're not stupid, we are very aware that we do not know ANYONE burried in St George, but it just seemed...... tradition. Plus, there's a breath-taking display of statues, flags and walls engraved in soldiers names there that we were able to honor.
As we were walking up and down rows of graves, we came across Mia May. On her itty bitty (smaller then a shoe-box), flat, grass-covered, grave stone we learned that Mia had the same birth date and death date. When we realized that, we couldn't help but notice that Mia's grave was barren. No flowers, notes or loves. Just grass overgrowing across her little stone. Kirk and I wondered if her mom and dad had chosen to forget about that painful day, for there was no evidence for us to think otherwise. So we decided to adopt her. Kirk found a flower that had blown away and was quick to give it to little Mia. She would only be 4 if she had made it...not nearly enought time for her family to have already forgot about her. Next year we'll make sure she's remembered :) But boy, we are so grateful for good family!!
