Vaughn's 36th Birthday & District Pinewood Derby

Sunday was Vaughn's birthday! Wahoo! He turned the mature age of 36! Since his birthday was on a Sunday this year, he totally made up for it by celebrating ALL weekend long! 

Friday his best friend from Boise drove down with his family and stayed the night! We were able to go to dinner with Joe and Gina and headed back early enough to watch Catching Fire. 


Our kids love when they get to hang out with the Holbrooks!

Sam felt left out all alone in her room, so the boys asked if she could sleep with them. She was soo excited when we said yes.

Saturday we had the Pinewood Derby District race. It took forever. The communication in our ward wasn't very good, so we showed up at 9 am and it didn't even start until 10! It was just frustrating because we wanted to be out playing. 

We were there for three hours!! It should not have been that long, but the announcer guy and the other guy in charge took FOR-EVER!!! There was a lot of chatter and then they would do a group of boys that took WAY too long and then take a five minute break!! A break from what??! Anyway, we told Drew if he ever makes it to district again, we are not going!
We spent another couple of hours with Joe and then they had to leave to go back home.

Taysom was so tired!

Not long after the Holbrooks left we got a call from the Hamblin's. They asked if we wanted to go to dinner and of course we did! So we tried a new restaurant here in Jerome (Matty's Place) and came back here to have Vaughn's birthday cheesecake. 


Tays really enjoyed the cheesecake! 

These are his "stretchy" pants!

Oh man. He has Grandpa Linkenhoker written all over him!
