Slam It

It’s been a good weekend. Friday night was “Girls Night” with some girls from work. We had dinner at El Matador and watched The Proposal. For any individuals of the male persuasion who may be reading this blog, let me explain. Mexican Food + Quality Chick Flick + Fun Friends = Super Successful Girls Night.

Saturday I got my haircut and ran a few errands. I also had the luxury of a Saturday afternoon nap. Yeah for me! This weekend was also my Stake Conference, so Sunday I got to sleep in a bit and didn’t have to worry about Relief Society lessons or choir practice. Yeah again!

Had a yummy Sunday dinner with Dad and Biz. I also won our game of Dutch Blitz. I don’t think I’ve ever beat Biz at Dutch Blitz before so that is definitely worth mentioning here.

Sunday afternoon, I went with my friend Carole and her two young kids to Temple Square. After we wore the kids out downtown, we went back to my house. I pulled out “Aunt Traci’s Toy Box” and Carole’s daughter invented a game called Slam It. Slam It involves an inflatable plastic ball and a flip-flop shaped fly swatter. (I should probably clarify that this particular fly swatter has always been in the toy box and has never been used to swat flies.) The rules are pretty much what you would expect from a game called Slam It. It was a fun end to a fun weekend.
