Friday in PROVO - Shopping, Bowling and Brookers

 I am having such a wonderful time in Provo.  I love having time with my kids and their spouses, and especially time with Cayson.  Today Mark and Michael worked at the hotel until 2:00 PM - Mark decided to get off early so we can enjoy some family time together.  In the meantime ...

Robert left this morning to go to St. George to see his mission buddies.  Luckily I was able to say goodbye!

I went shopping to find Jessica some maternity clothes but didn't have any luck.  I also went to Walmart for Robert's necessities.  This took most of the morning and cost about $450.  I am surprised how much prices have gone up since Jessica moved into her first apartment nearly 10 years ago.  The kids called and I finished up shopping to have lunch with the girls.

 

Once Mark and Michael got off work we all met together at Jessica's to wait for Tate to get off.  We decided to go Bowling at Fat Cat's.  Betsy got two lanes next to each other.  Tate got us a great coupon so it was only $5 per person for the lanes and the shoes.  It was all just a great time.  Sierra went over to Costa Vida and got nachos for everyone to share!  Drinks were part of the bowling package too so we all had plenty to eat and drink.  Even Cayson bowled with us using the ramp!  HE's so cute!!!!  It was a bunch of couples:  Jessica & Tate, Mark & Betsy, Marissa & Michael, Sierra and ... well not Devon (he had to work), but we tagged her with Cayson.  The hour of bowling went faster than imagined.  

 

 

 

  

From there we went to Brookers Ice Cream to see Devon.  I also arranged to meet Ali Hodge and her fiance' Chris Collard there.  I'm so excited for her!!!  They take us for a ride in their new Tesla.  We talked for over a hour just catching up!  It's great that we are close to Ali and Chris.  I'm so happy for them.  

 

Mark and I were going to drop Sierra off at her apartment, but she invited me up to watch a movie with her.  Mark went to do something, and then came back later.  Sierra and I watched Aeronauts - what a great movie!  So amazing what they did - and a true story at that!  I'm so glad that I got to spend so much time with Sierra!  It's been great to deepen our relationship!  She is a special soul.
