Zach's 22nd Brithday

I didn't even get any good pictures! What the heck is wrong with me? I dunno. Anyways...
We got up early (0730ish) and started to get ready to head to SLC. I decided that I would let Brooklyn sleep an extra few minutes (given her grouchy attitude lately) and just take her stuff with us so we could get her ready when we got there. We were cruising down I-15 and all of a sudden I hear Zach say "oh S***" and my first thought was "where is the cop?" I didn't see lights or anything but Zach was already explaining to me that he saw the cop going north bound and he flipped around just when he saw Zach. I thought he was being paranoid but...He got pulled over! The cop was large and mean looking but he proved to be very nice and just gave Zach a warning...wheh!
When we got to SLC everyone was happy and excited to see us. We hurry and got Brooklyn ready and headed to Ihop where we had breakfast/lunch with Grandma and Grandpa Day, Mark and Tammy, Amanda and AJ, and Danika. It was good to see them all. Brooklyn was being a booger as usual and kept floating around the table to anyone who would take her. At the end we even got Ihop staff to sing a little ditty and give Amanda and Zach some Ice Cream. They weren't too thrilled but admitted it was better than years past where they had to hoola hoop and wear a coconut bra!
After Breakfast we all headed over to Mark and Tammy's to just hang out and visit with everyone (including Zach's cousin Tyler) and we got to meet a couple of Amanda's friends. Brooklyn and I took a short nap which was very much needed and then everyone started leaving.
Mark and Tam were nice to keep Brooklyn while Zach and I went out and did a little shopping. We went to Pet smart to get a few things that we needed to bring Kiwi home (HURRAY) and over to Kohl's to check out their sales which turned out to be not so great because we couldn't find anything). On our way home Jess (one of Zach's friend's) flagged us down at his mom's house so we stopped and visited and got all caught up. Then we took Brooklyn back to see his mom Linda and she gave her all kinds of treats :)
After we visited with Jess and his family we went and got slurpies at the 7-11 and then we hung out and BBQ ed some burgers. On our way back to Tremonton we swung by the Eliason's to say hi for a brief moment and off we went. We stopped by my parent's house for a minute to say hi and show Kiwi to Jade and Jamie then we went home for a nice night of sleep.
I felt bad because we didn't do anything to extravagant but Zach didn't seem to mind. I think that once you are married with a kid and a house holidays don't seem as important as the every day life. It's interesting. I will tell you though that he ordered a muzzle loader for his birthday, which he was VERY excited about.
Thanks to all of you who called, left messages, sent cards, and wished my Hubby a
HAPPY 22ND BIRTHDAY!!
