Soccer, the Zoo and my Favorite Restaurant

We had a great weekend! Friday we went and picked up Felicia and Jordan to give Ed some time to relax without the kids. We went to the park, played games and watched movies. Then on Saturday we went to Kelvin's soccer game and then to the zoo. The soccer game was really good and my fabulous man scored most of the goals! He basically won the game for his team single handed! (Hey, a girl has the right to brag about her husband being the best, right??) He was so good and he had a lot of fun. I tried to get a good picture of him scoring, but the camera takes pictures 2 seconds after you push the button so it was always just a little too late. Maybe next time I will have figured out the timing and can get a good shot! It was really good for him to get out and play. Most of the semester has been him doing homework and then going to work. He never really got a lot of time to play. But when you are in school to be a Mechanical Engineer, you don't have time to do much of anything else. The classes are killers! Needless to say he is so excited to be done in a couple years.


Isn't he awesome!









He had just missed a shot in this picture but was so close!

After the game we went to the zoo with the kiddos. We went with them last year and had a lot of fun. Our camera's batteries died so we didn't get any pictures. Our other friend Matt Welling came with us and he took pictures for us. We don't have them yet so they are not with this blog. After we dropped the kiddo's off we went home and got ready for the night! Ever since we have been married I have wanted to go to my favorite restaurant in the World! Tepanyaki in Utah is a Japanese Steakhouse and like a Hibachi Grill. They cook the food on a big grill in front of you and you get great entertainment from the chef. The food is fa nominal but unfortunately so are the prices! This is why it is not a common occurrence to go. In fact, in our whole year and a half of marriage, we hadn't yet been. So this year, I insisted we go. I saved the birthday money my parents gave me and we invited our friends and went out for a birthday/goodbye celebration! It was SO much fun! Everyone had a blast and our chef was hilarious! When we first got there, there were a ton of high school students standing outside. They were all dressed up and we assumed it was for the Prom. In the middle of them all my friend Joey jumped out and yelled "Happy Birthday!" The high school kids then started to sing to me and the boys all got together and made an arch for me to walk through to get inside the restaurant all while they were singing to me! I was laughing so hard and a little embarrased. It's awesome though to have attention like that occasionally. When we got inside the kids left and I asked my friend if she put them up to it. She laughed and said she had nothing to do with it they just did it! So cute!

Kelvin thought it was so cute that I was SO excited to be there. I tend to act like a little kid when I get excited and was dancing when I was eating, wide eyed and a huge grin the whole night!



The love of my life and very best friend! Thank you baby for my wonderful night! You mean the world to me.
