What an AMAZING weekend!

I was waiting for Amy to post about her birthday but she hasn't and I've been asked to be a few people so here it is. Amy's bday was the 5th of course and we had some fun! I started off the day heading up to Salt Lake to pick up none other than Derrick! That's right he is home from his mission and it was the first time we got to see each other again. I got up there and met his father and brother in law Chris, while we got Derrick some new jeans. Then afterward we headed back to Orem for hte birthday fun to begin. Heather, Bryan and Rylee headed down as well so we all spent the day with Amy. Amy decided that IHOP was the place to go and it was a great choice on her part. Then we went bowling! I think everyone had a great time as we played Skittle Bowling! For those of you who don't know what that is, you assign each color something different fun to do. For example we did Green for granny shots! Anyway we had a great time, then went back to our place for gifts and cake. We watched a little of the BYU game (they won!), then Derrick and I headed up to have dinner with his family. It was good to meet his sister Becky, and his mom again. I had met her once before for a short time before he left for his mission. Then we just hungout with them that night and had a nice time! At the end of the night it was so hard to say goodbye to Derrick but I know it had to be done. I just can't wait until I seem him next month.

Overall I think everyone enjoyed our time together, I know I did!
