Valentine's Day Weekend!

Boy was it quite the weekend!! Matt and I were happy to have Spencer and HUGE SURPRISE Molly visit us this past weekend!! It was so fun to be with family because it doesn't happen too often!

On Friday we headed over to pick up Spencer and when we found him he asked if we could give this girl that he'd met a ride back to her apartment! Of course we were more than happy to and when she walked over to get in the car........IT WAS MOLLY!!! We were so excited for this fun surprise!! We all squished in the car..Matt, Paige, Molly, Spencer, and Carolyn....and hurried back to our place to get ready for our "Redneck Party"! It was a blast making the necessary preparations for our party..we even got a "Hillbilly" pizza to get us in character!

The party was a hit, we enjoyed the country delicacies of le Poo-poo Platter and a roadkill Porcupine cake, topped off with a Root Beer Kegger!
Porcupine Roadkill Cake...mmmm!
Le Poo-poo Platter, complete with a John Deere Tractor!
Nothing like a kegger!
We then participated in some good ole redneck games: Pin the Rattail on the Mullet Man, You Might Be a Redneck If... Game, design your own mullet, and Charades..redneck style! It was such a blast and we owe a huge thank you to Carolyn who was the main woman behind the party planning! You are so fun and creative!
This is Molly pinning on her rattail! We had loads of pictures so I just chose one but if anyone is wondering we do have the other pictures!
This is the "You Might Be A Redneck If.." game that Matt was so lucky to get for Christmas!
Just a couple of redneck broads! You girls looked awesome!

Saturday we woke up and had a fabulous breakfast of fruit and heart shaped waffles! Then we were off to the hillsides to go shooting!! No this was not a continuation of our Redneck party, this is simply the life I live being married to Matt!! A life that I actually really really love! Matt was excited to shoot his new Rough Rider Pistol (Valentine's gift..the spoiled little booger) and share all of his toys with his siblings!! We all took our turns on the guns and had a blast!

This is me shooting our Rough Rider Pistol!
Matt and Carolyn with the Ruger!

Molly got most of the pictures while we were shooting so as soon as we get those from her we will post them!

Later on we all went to a Thai restaurant here in Rexburg and it was delicious! I got the yellow curry, which turned out to be a little too spicy for me, but Matt was more that willing to make the ole switcheroo (he's a spicy man)! So I was able to enjoy his meal while he downed mine! We ended the night with a movie and a lot of laughs! Sunday we had a FANTASTIC Indian meal prepared by Spencer and enjoyed each others company!

What a fun weekend! One that Matt and I were definately sad to have come to and end! But we were so excited that we were able to have visitors and we can't thank Molly, Spencer, and Carolyn for providing us with a lot of fun! We love you guys!

That poo poo platter looked just delightful...like real poo. There is nothing I like more than for my food to resemble crap.
