Sunday we went to Matthew's blessing. It was nice. We went to a park afterward and ate lunch. There was actually quite a bit I could eat. Shocking. The weather was perfect and it was nice to visit with family. Matthew was very cute. He sure is a sleepy baby. It's only the second time I've seen him since he was born.
We went to the canyon with David's family yesterday. The picnic areas were not so crowded, but the parking sure was. We were lucky David has a handicapped parking tag or I don't know where we would have parked. Kailien had to park in a non-parking spot and move when someone left. Everyone cleared out from breakfast about 11:00 am and about noon a bunch of people started showing up for lunch.
It was nice even though it was a little crowded. The picnic tables are far enough apart that nobody really bothered anybody else. We left about 1:00 pm and I hated to go. It's so pretty in the canyon.
At least this time we didn't have a ton of sugar! We had pancakes, french toast, scrambled eggs, hash browns, sausage, bacon and fruit salad. All I could eat was the eggs and fruit. At least I could eat that! I thought about taking up stuff for gf pancakes, but it seemed like too much of a hassle, so I ate a piece of toast before I left home. It worked.
If you want to see pictures of it, Meagan has some posted on facebook. We had a huge fire for a while. After it died down, Cameron and James poured water on it ashes spewed all over us like we were by a volcano. That was fun.
I was so confused yesterday. On the way home I was thinking, "Now we need to go put flowers on the graves. Oh, wait, wrong holiday." Not that we got around to it on Memorial Day. Maybe we should have yesterday.
Maybe my side of the family can go to the canyon on a Saturday morning later this month. I just gotta figure out when I have volleyball and when I don't. I think the last Saturday will work.
Meagan got up this morning thinking she had class at 9:00 am. Nope, it starts at 1:00 pm. Maybe I shouldn't have pointed it out to her? She would have been hanging around at the campus for a while, wondering where everyone in her class was.

Millcreek Canyon. Meagan loves to take pictures. When she's bored between classes (or any other time), she whips out her camera and starts taking photos.
