Weekend at Lacy's


Saturday morning, we hurried down to Salt Lake City for Questar's Annual Junior Achievement Bowling Fun-ness (I'm fairly certain that's the actual name of the event).  Basically, it was a chance for Robbie to bowl a bit while I learned more about what a celebrity his father really is.  Afterward, back at the Allred's home, I crashed for at least 1 1/2 hours on his parents' bed (this baby makes me tired!)

Later that night, we went to Ryan and Sarah Shaw's wedding reception back in Logan. What a great event!  It was really fun to see them so happy.  We are also very excited that they are in our ward!  Yay for more friends in Logan!

Early Sunday morning, we headed up to Fruitland, Idaho (the other side of the Snake River from Ontario, Oregon) to see my dear little trainee Sister Lacy MacKenzie report her mission.  We were really excited to have made the 5 hour drive and still have been 10 minutes early to the service when we realized it was almost over...Dang that early daylight savings time!  After so many years of being reminded at General Conference to change clocks, I can't get a grip on this "remember-on-your-own" bit!  I vote it goes back to the old way!  We did catch the last 20 minutes or so of the service and (I think!) most of her talk--which was fabulous, by the way.

Later, back at the MacKenzie home, while I busied myself laughing and catching up with my former companion, Robbie made himself comfortable perusing the local closets (ok, so he was told where to find it) and discovered a sweet, sweet old guitar.  He was happy.
Lacy and I had a lot of fun together.  It was SO great to see her again!  
(this is before, in Anderson, Indiana)
(and after in Fruitland, Idaho--me being fat and pregnant and un-makeuped!)
In reality, Lacy's pictures didn't need to be touched up at all, but MAN!  I looked SWEET!
It was a crazy-awesome weekend!
