Earler today Kevin headed up to the UT with his brother to go to the BYU game tommorrow. SO, that left Breeona, Jaxon, and I home alone. :) We spent the afternoon on the computer and watching tv, just takin it easy. I wanted to do something fun and I have had a hankerin for a cupcake, so I looked up the nearest cupcake place and got Jax out of bed and went. Kevin took my car so we had his truck. I really don't like driving his truck. I feel so out of whack in it, also I can't park it. We got our cupcakes and headed home. I was driving home in the dark. Breeona was taking bites of my cupcakes and I was trying hers. I was fumbling with Kevin's huge truck and I think Breeona was having a great time. The backseat was full of crumbs.
As I was driving him home I had a flash back to when I was young and in the passengers seat. My mom was driving. It was dark and we were headed home after a long day of shopping in the 'city'. We would do this trip about once a month and almost every time we would get some sort of treat for on the way home. Often it would be jelly beans. I would turn on the light and see the color, figure out what flavor it was and hand it to my mom who would try to guess the flavor.
I often wonder what kind of memories Breeona will have looking back. I can't give her all day shopping trips, a huge yard, or big garden. I need to give her more of my time.

Great post!
Those were fun times. Thanks for the memory jog. Love the new pics also. Mom
Old memories make the best blog posts! I love jelly beans. We had jelly bellys in the little cups at our wedding instead of nuts or mints!
What fun memories!
Wonderful post!
