Friday night in

The options were endless. Eric had a less than stellar day yesterday, so including a perfectly timed lunch date (thanks Melissa!), we offered Eric the pick of any family activity he could choose to cheer his soul and remind him that we are--and always will be--his biggest fans. He came home from work with a list...to Emery to watch the basketball team, to Meadow to find the Hot Springs, to Las Vegas for a night at Circus Circus (I know...how cool would that have been!), to Richfield for bowling, to Provo to party with Summer, and mumbled under our breath stayathomenanddonothingmuch. Well, as we were discussing and hosting all the neighborhood children I suddenly noticed that Eric had dozed off. So I left the room and came back two hours later and said, "Well, I guess we did decided to go with stayathomeanddonothingmuch." Truth be told we did venture in to Richfield for some ooey-gooey carmel brownie twix shake and blue moon ice cream with red cream soda and crushed ice. Then we got to come home and watch the basketball game through live streaming on the internet. And do nothing much. Why do little boys think this is what you should look like when you say "cheese"?

CharlyAnn spent some time emptying her favorite drawer.

Viana and Brooke played an played.Silly face! per Brooke's request of course.Eric and Ram played basketball for a solid hour. Eric squatted down, and so Ram thought he needed to as well. I love when kids do that!As antsy as I was to spoil my husband with some amazing Friday night activity, I really really liked what we did instead. And now I am off to snuggle down and watch some Star Wars with my extremly kissable husband.

Oh my I want some ice cream now! I'm so glad that Eric got a nap. Sure it wasn't a trip to LV but it was a nap... more precious than gold in my world.

Sad Eric had a bad day. He deserves good days, glad you could have a nice Friday night.
