Bit by Bit. . . starting with the small bits

We have been horrible at keeping up with this thing lately. Sorry about that. I made a list of everything that has happened since last time we really blogged and it was a lot. So we are going to do this bit by bit. I decided to split it into 3 or 4 separate entries to make it more tolerable to read. Following the small bits will be Vegas, Easter, and an Ellie update.


By no means is this bit of information small in importance. My favorite (and only) brother is getting married in June! He proposed to Rylee when they went to watch Spring Training in Arizona during the second week of March. Their official wedding date is June 20 and we are so excited for them. They bought the cutest little skirt and sweater for Ellie to wear. My family got to meet her family a couple of weeks ago. They seem so fun and they love baseball just as much as Jimmy does. We can't wait!

Weston and I both celebrated our 26th birthdays! We feel really old because we're now nearing thirty. We had family over on March 28th and had barbecue chicken and bratwursts. I got to celebrate my birthday twice: once in Vegas with his family and once at my parents' house on Sunday. We both had great birthdays! (sorry no pictures)

Weston is going to start playing softball with a rec league Thursday nights. His first game is next week. My cousin Eric organized the team and Jimmy, my cousin Scott, and Jimmy's friend Sam are playing on the team as well. For his birthday, Weston's parents got him a softball bat and he still has yet to finish getting what he needs.

I have been off track for almost three weeks now. The crummy thing is I have to go back Friday morning so I will try to get my posts done before then. Sometimes is goes way too fast!

The Best Burger Update

I am sure that nobody cares about what burger I like the best, but you are going to get it anyway. Last week, we went to Las Vegas with my little brother's high school baseball team for a spring break tournament. It used to be that the closest In-N-Out was in Las Vegas and any time that we were down there we would stop by for what was my favorite hamburger. This trip was no different, except they are not my favorite any more. In fact, they have become number three. While eating there I realized that their food tastes the same as Chadder's (which was sued by In-N-Out) except for one small difference. Here is where I rip on their fries. Both places' french fries give me the impression of eating deep fried packing peanuts. Chadder's has taken second place away from In-N-Out in my book because of this one small thing. Maybe it is because I am from Utah, but Chadder's has fry sauce and it is good. However, Five Guys Burgers and Fries is still the reigning Champ. I don't know how their quarter pound patties* are sooooo much bigger than In-N-Out and Chadder's. It must be less fatty than the other guys. Five Guys Burger and Fries is still #1.
