Golden Spike


Ok, I already know it's going to be a two post night...forgive me for not posting this yesterday...it's been busy. Yesterday we went to the re-enactment of golden-spike. It was the 139th anniversary of the event. I must admit that I went solely because my Grandma and Grandpa guilted me into it. I made myself have fun...but Logan loved it. (It was very very boring) It would have been less boring if we had gotten the correct start time. They told us the event started at 11. When in reality, they started at 12:30. It was hard. The boys were fussy...I was a little annoyed (We arrived on time...everyone else arrived promptly at 12:30...So I was guilted in being there...but those who guilted me were not.) Funny. It was ok. The boys had a blast. I bought them these cute little engineer hats and these little wooden trains and we got to spend some good time with My uncle Layne and Aunt Cynthia and their kids. It was so fun to get to see them. (They live in St. George, and we haven't gotten to spend time with them. This visit was my first time meeting all of their kids. It was great) We went to Maddox for dinner following and I must say...the food kind of sucked. (Ok, it really sucked. I must say, if I have the choice, I won't eat there again.) Over all it was pretty fun. Exhausting, but pretty fun.

Sorry you didn't have a very good time Lauralee. And that you didn't like Maddox. I can't imaging what you ate that was so bad. Mine was so yummy! I wish you'd had a better time. We had a lot of fun. I thought the best thing was just being there with everyone. That doesn't happen very often, so it's great when it does happen.
