So…I went to St. George the 2nd weekend of October. My parents were getting honored as Distinguished Alumni. It was bittersweet. My parents surely deserved it, but I just wish my dad could have been there. He really loved Dixie College and has dedicated so much of his time, energy, and love to that great school. He fought much for the preservation of the good old Dixie spirit. We really missed him. But, my mom deserved it so much, and so it was great to see her honored as well! It was a great weekend, but was awful about getting my camera out. The only picture I took was of this little bug at my sister’s house.
Last weekend…Jason and I went to visit his family. It was his Grandma’s birthday and his Uncle Glen and his wife Mary threw her a party. They made a lovely dinner, we played Rummikub and had pie. I haven’t laughed so hard in a long time. Jason’s family is really witty and they love to laugh. It was a really good time :)

The three of us :) ....Jared's not much of a photographer! Jason's eyes are closed! haha
The Whole Gang!
It was really a great visit! Thanks so much to Glen and Mary!
Oh…and I made Cafe Rio for dinner on Sunday…it was delish! Jason took a picture…but not a very good one of the food. I was quite proud of it. It’s not too hard as long as you plan at well.
And….sad to say…we have finally past our lovely fall weather into the cold. I am going to have to turn my heater pretty soon…not too excited about the coldness, but happy to get my winter clothes out…so fun!

I LOVE making Cafe Rio dinners... it's a lot of work because there are so many different things to it that are cooked separately, but it turns out so good even done at home, huh? Looooooooove it! =)
I have to admit I love Cafe Rio Dinners.....especially after a long work week and I buy them fresh and tasty! But good on you for cooking!
I wish I could buy Cafe Rio...I guess making them again soon will have to do. I love the pictures--you look fantastic Shamma. Hugs to you; we miss you much!
Yummy Cafe Rio! And I love that Kayelee Mae! She is the cutest and funniest thing! I'll have to call you and tell you a story about her from the other day...it's hilarious! But when you said 4 going on 20 man did you hit that right on! Love you Shammy! Miss you lots!
