Salmon Supper


Every year we head down to Payson for their annual Salmon Supper.
Its a fundraiser and there is always a HUGE turnout. The line for the food wrapped clear around the park!

For 15 bucks you get coleslaw, a potato, a roll, corn on the cob, a bottle of water, a cookie, and a HUGE slab of Salmon, that was flown in the day before from Alaska (fresh fish is hard to come by out here in Utah, so that in and of itself is worth the money!) and then it's cooked over fruitwood fires right there at the park.

A-MAZ-ING!

 ^Tree-hugger^


 ^Kenna is going to be such a cute Mom someday. She looks adorable holding DJ^

 ^Savy and her great Grandpa! (And chubby little Finn photo-bombing in the back!)^



 ^This girl goes a little crazy when people start wrestling. She gets this look in her eye that says "I'm going to beat the snot out of these kids" and she goes to TOWN! Don't be anywhere near her if she wants to wrestle. And yes, poor River is totally being clotheslined by Savannah's legs because he tried to jump on Sawyer's face right as he picked Savy up. Poor kid.^

The Salmon Supper is almost like a holiday for Bryant. He looks forward to it every year. Then it's all he can talk about for the week after.

It was good food with good people. A lot of my family members from my grandma's side of the family that I don't get to see very often came, and it's always nice spending time with them! We are looking forward to next year Payson!

I could eat my weight in salmon

Sorry I've been lacking in my blogging. Hopefully I'll get the whole weekend updated here today and tomorrow.

Anyways, lets start with Friday.

Friday I was supposed to work, but unfortunately they have been cutting hours so I showed up, only for them to tell me they didn't need me. My dad and my sister were there in the cafe getting drinks and reading magazines, waiting for my mom to get off work and meet them there.

They were all going to the Salmon Bake.

Since I suddenly had a free night, I called up my Grandma and asked her to buy Bryant and I a ticket, and once Bryant got off work we drove up there.

The Salmon bake is a fundraiser for the city. And at 15 bucks a plate, and well over 2000 people, I'd say it was a very successful fundraiser! And the food was amazing!!!


Tons of food!!! (and I think I ate everything on my plate!)
They overnight the salmon from Alaska, so it's super fresh! (It's rare here in the desert to get fresh fish!) And it was amazing!

Lots of people!


Grandpa and Dad

Mom, Nichole, and Brad (my aunt and uncle)
I know, we are adorable...

After the dinner, my little sister Sage, Bryant and I went to my cousins house for a poker night.

I don't know much about Texas hold 'em but thankfully, Bryant's really good at it so he was able to help me. I still lost pretty badly. It could have been that I was having too much fun with this little guy to really pay attention.Isn't River adorable? He's always happy too, he smiles at EVERYTHING!Don't you think Bryant will make a great dad some day? He got River laughing so hard he got the hiccups!
My cousin Layne, his wife Carrie with River and their son Colter.

Well, it's official, I'd take Salmon and poker night over work anytime!
