Tommy had a softball tournament last weekend but due to the weather it got cancelled, which meant at the last minute we were able to attend his mission reunion up in Centerville on Friday night. I am so so glad that we were able to go. It was so much fun!!! I had meet President and Sister Moore before at our wedding but it was quick obviously. It was so nice to meet them again and talk to them a little bit more. It was also so fun to meet some of the guys that I seen pictures of and heard lots of stories about while Tommy served in Jamaica. These guys were so funny and it was so fun to see Tommy interacting with them all again. They shared some funny stories. Tommy was really excited to see a few of his companions that he had some really good relationships with. They showed a short video montage of the mission and some of the missionaries. Tommy was in a lot of it. It was so funny to see how young he was. Caleb thought it was really cool to see daddy as a missionary. There were LOTS of kids there and Caleb and Bailey had a blast running around with them all. Tommy had suggested having the Jerk Shack cater, in fact the guy that owns the Jerk Shack served in Jamaica with all of them. It was so freaking good!!! We had jerk chicken, curry chicken, rice and peas and patties. And man oh man was it good!!! We have eaten at the Jerk Shack several times before but he is know cooking the jerk chicken in a big roaster and man it was yummy! And the patties came in from Jamaica. I still am craving more. I would suggest checking out the Jerk Shack, if you have not before. It is located across from Target on Center Street in Orem on the grass area in front of Sprinkler World. It is just a little shack so it is kinda hard to see it but it is some good stuff! It was so funny to listen to all the guys talk about the food, it seemed to be a favorite part of their missions. :) I am so glad that we were able to go and attend his reunion. (Next reunion is in Jamaica). It was a great start to an amazing conference weekend. We spent the rest of the weekend listening to conference, playing with the kids, shopping, watching movies together, going out to eat with my mom and the kids while the guys went to dinner and priesthood session, and simply doing some relaxing.
