Graduation and Mother's Day

Long time no post. I have been meaning to put something up but I just haven't. Hmmm...We have been having a lot of fun around here. Matt graduated the same weekend as Mother's Day. We went down to the Georgia Dome for the graduation which was totally different than BYU's. As in they had concession stands, Dippin' Dots, Hot Dogs, Popcorn you know regular concession food. They also had confetti and firework type things. It was really fun, but not like the very serious graduation that I experienced!






That night we went out to Fogo de Chao. Best restaurant ever! We can't wait to go back. It is one of those Brazilian places but it is really good. They have a few other ones around, I know there is one in Dallas, but if you are eve given the chance to try it out, DO! Yum.


Then Sunday was Mother's Day. Matt was so great and got me a great gift and a card from him and a card from Ryan. It was really cute and fun to celebrate. You only get one first Mother's Day, right?!



Ryan has been crawling everywhere and has really perfected the fastest way to crawl. He is getting into and up on everything. He seems more interested in walking. I hope he doesn't master that for awhile as he already seems to be getting into everything!! This pic is from when we went to the park with Grandpa!





A long time ago we went to the park with John and Lindy and Sue Ann (for those keeping track I think Sue Ann was here more than a month ago) and we played this awesome game called Kubb. It is totally something Grandpa Salmon would be into. You throw sticks to knock down other sticks!! Sound ridiculous but it was actually quite challenging and really fun!





I am going to post something about whatever we do for the long weekend so stay tuned!!
