A Visit From the WY Evelos



Well Grandma Vony and Grandpa Lyle (Rick's dad and stepmom) just left yesterday. We had a good time catching up with them. They arrived Friday and we hung out and showed them our house, that took all of five minutes. Saturday was filled with Basketball games for Madelynn and Andrew, and then we went out to the golf course to run the dog. They had a good time watching Bett chase after the geese.

Sunday was really nice, Andrew got up to bear his testimony in Sacrament for the first time. I of course was teary the minute he walked up there, but he did a great job and I was blown away by his maturity, he is such a great example to me and his brother and sister! We had some time before the big game so we took them to our favorite sledding hill in Monument. It was nice because we were the only ones their for a most of the time and could go crazy and not worry about running someone over. When we got home, I immediately started Super Bowl food, Rick always has a menu that starts with snacks and gradually leads up to a huge meal! Don't get me wrong, I love it as much as he does, eating in between every play makes the game that much more enjoyable especially when the team you want to win blows it in the end!

By Monday we were all wore out I think. The kids went to school (Madelynn had a fever so stayed home) and the grandparents went to see their classes. We took Grandma to Current Factory store for some good deals on things she loves to do.

When they left they promised it wouldn't be 5 years before they come back again!

Blows it? How 'bout that they just weren't as stacked up as the Giants. Plus you gotta give it to Eli and Tyree for that awesome play towards the end of the 4th. Talk about athleticism!
