Family...

We spent the day hanging out in Nampa with my family to celebrate my mom's 70th birthday. We went to Golden Corral for lunch and then spent the afternoon playing games (Dave and Spencer left after lunch and Rob spent the whole weekend as a vendor at the gun show).

Lunch:

Back at the house we played Catch Phrase which was hilarious!

One of the words my dad had to describe was "selfie". He grabbed Gloria's phone and took a mock selfie. He doesn't know how to use her phone so when the round was over, we showed him how to take a REAL selfie:

All in all it was a lovely weekend. The weather is getting nicer, I had a really nice lunch with my friend, Joyce, at Kona Grill in The Village and Rob had his hands full working at the gun show. 

The only thing that would have improved this weekend is having Zach at home! Although Zach and I did have a nice, long texting conversation while I relaxed and watched the Olympics so that definitely added to my contentment for sure!

Valentine's Day...

No mushy, lovey post here, just pics of the two events we ran sound for:

The Chancellors at The Red Lion Downtowner:

 

 

And Smooth Avenue in The Sapphire Room:

This just in...

Sometimes the only way I find out what Zach is up to is when he's tagged in a photo on Facebook. Just now as I was scrolling through, this pic popped up. I have no idea what's going on here but my boy is in it so that makes me happy :)

Creativity

Gloria has a creative gene that certainly didn't come from me. Of course she comes from a long line of creative, artistic people, most notably her dad, but she has a definite uniqueness to her art that's completely her own. She spent a couple of hours yesterday creating this Masterpiece on canvas:

The figure in the picture is Ariel from The Little Mermaid. Obviously. 

She also made a video of herself singing and playing the guitar that I love but can't seem to upload to the blog so I'll save that for another day!

Snow Days....

I'm not exactly sure how I feel about the weather these days. I dislike the cold but I'm not ready for winter to end and shove me mercilessly into a summer I'm dreading. So let it snow, let it snow, let it snow....

Plus I can be in denial while sitting on the couch watching the Olympics with this sweet thang...
