sweet 16 and the fair

this past weekend i spent with the Gathers. It was nicoles birthday on friday and so i was happy to hang out with them. We went to an italian restaurant on friday night, and i'm not even going to attempt to say the name of it. the selling point on the restaurant had to be this sign on the side of the building...
the place was actualy pretty cool. the food was good, nothing to rave about.. but i think i may have made it sound really shady by saying the selling point was the sanitary bathrooms. the sign was just funny. So after we went home and had cake.. it was sooo good. Aunty Wilma made it.. and did an awesome job too.

Well saturday we woke up and went to the Utah State Fair. It was a fun day. and i can't beleive we stayed there as late as we did.. Wayne Ikebuchi, my dad's cousin, who works for one of the games hooked us up with ride bracelets and so we could go on as many as we wanted. which ended up not being very many for me. because for the first time in my life i got motion sick from the rides. weird. but it was still fun.

I guess maybe the time at the fair went by so quickly because of us stopping to say bye to Wayne. He had warned us that the game he ran was addictive. but we had to find out for ourselves. Nicole and i would have sold just about anything we could have to get more tokens to keep playing.. we lost a good 2 hours there. as you can see from the pictures we are quite engaged. we won a stuffed zebra, and a stuffed fred and wilma flintstone. there is a picture below. Chay also came home with some handcuffs.. which gave uncle dave a reason to bring out his own, and do some disciplining..






it was a really fun weekend. thanks to the gathers for picking me up and bringing me back in time for work on sunday. (i thought it was weird that i work for byu and had to work sunday tooo..)
