Labor Day?

I guess its been over a month or so, (why Miss is having me blog about it now... ;-).. I don't quite know) but we spent Labor Day with my family and headed up to Park City and then on to Mirror Lake for the day. It was a quick trip and we had some fun times. Here are a couple of pictures to share with you. We ended the day by finally taking the time to eat at the Road Island Diner. Its a pretty good meal, and my favorite was Casey believing that the waitresses real names were "Blanch" and "Doris".

The Foster Fam minus Nate (he had to work)

Here we leave you with a random photo of Canyon and Keisha

Brunch and Birthdays

My good friends Linds and Jess and me went up the canyon to Ruth's diner for breakfast a few weeks ago. I love that place! I can't get enough of their amazing biscuits. I love this picture of us, I am never the tallest!

August, September, and October are quite the birthday months for our family. It started with Preston's mom, my mom, Canyon, my dad, me, and Preston's sister's husband Nate. Happy Birthday to us!

We celebrated Canyon's birthday on September 2nd. I can't believe that we have had him for an entire year! He is such a wonderful dog and is such a joy to have in our lives. This is a picture of him begging for food. He is sitting on the love sac, with his head resting on the coffee table.

 Preston's family took me out to PF Changs for my 26th birthday. How am I getting so old? 

Hillside Floral delivered this gorgeous basket from my parents. They know that I don't like how flowers die after a week, so there are three house plants in there!

My parents treated us to dinner at Ruth Chris for my birthday. Their steak is amazing!!! They even had birthday confetti that they put on the table, and sparkling pear cider that they brought out. The dessert in the picture was a banana cream pie, with carmelized bananas. It was delicious. We also got the chocolate duo. Yum!

Go UTES!!!!!!!!!

Miss's parents picked up two more season tickets for this years Utah Football season. Each game has been really fun to watch. I have really enjoyed each game that we have been to. As of this post the Utes are 4-0, which is AWESOME! They are also ranked 10 in the nation. I love being an alumnus of the University of Utah! Well here are some pictures of the games so far.
