FAMILY TRADITIONS-



When you have four birthdays in one week, your family tradition is pared down, Instead of four spegetti dinners, you combine them and only get one! Well last night we rounded up three of the four birthday people and descended on the Spegetti Factory for one of our favorite meals. Most of us know before we even set down what we are going to order, Managers special with meat sauce and mizeethera cheese, salad with blue cheese dressing and spamoni ice cream, are favorites for a very long time. Then there are the little boys who stick to "Mac and Cheese". We will convert them eventually though. The first round was just the Cook family and Pam and I. It was Pam, Andea and Richard's birthday. It was also Brayden's but he couldn't make it in from Vernal. Then Tiff and Scott called Pam and said they'd like to go........then Rob called and said some of the deer hunters had gotten sick and he and the boys would be back.......in time to meet her for dinner. SOooooo we ended up with 12 people, a real birthday party! I love it when we all get together, even unexpectedly. We really missed the Christenson's family, but understand they can't just drop in from Vernal. Memories.......Today school started, happy mothers, excited children. Leslie called and said my Aunt Josephine died. I called to tell Lucille, Aunt Josephine was the last of our aunts and uncles on my mother and her dad's side. Off to get my nails done.
