"Meat Locker Boys" Reunion

Again, we are so lucky to be in a city that so many of our friends come to visit. On Monday night we got to see some of our favorite friends from Boston - Tim, Becky and baby Caroline and John. It was so fun to see them again, catch up on what is going on in their lives now and remember good times together in Boston. John was Scott's roommate and dated my roommate, Tim was our good friend and dated another one of my roommates and Becky was a friend that took over my room in our house when I moved out to get married. It's funny how everyone gets connected when you have a smallish LDS singles community.

While Scott, Tim and John were dating the girls in our house they formed the "Meat Locker Boys Club". Their fourth member was Mike Benson, who we all miss and love and told funny stories about to feel like he was there. The Meat Locker Boys came about because the guys would escape together to our sun porch in the winter time. The sun porch is an enclosed porch, but has no insulation or heating. We called it the meat locker. They would sit out there in freezing, snowy temperatures and have their "meetings".

Scott grilled huge, delicious hamburgers. We had hamburgers, corn on the cob, watermelon, grapes, chips, coleslaw (by John), salad, soda, hmmmmm what else? It was a good dinner.

Tim and Becky were so nice and brought Brielle one of the best presents she has ever received - a pink Boston Red Sox cap!! Thank you!
