Zach and I had a fun time with his little brother Nate and girlfriend Sisi. They came up from Provo to spend the long weekend! We laughed so hard, played games, watched movies, went sledding, and ate sushi! Zach and I often go to a cute little sushi place in Smithfield, but since it was closed we had to settle for one in Logan. Usually we just get different kind of sushi rolls, but since Sisi (from Hong Kong) and Nate (recently returned from Taiwan) were with us, we got brave and tried the real deal! I should have taken some closer pictures, cause it really was beautiful food! We tried raw salmon, tuna, shrimp, fish eggs and snapper (?). My stomach felt a little queezy afterwards...but I think it was just all in my head -- knowing that there were raw things "swimming" around in there! I think we'll stick with the rolls from now on!
Then on Sunday morning we made the famous Patterson biscuits and chocolate gravy! It sounds gross, but truly it's delightful. If you want a taste, come visit us on a Saturday morning! I am telling you -- it is unbelievable! (I wish I had a better camera so you could get the real affect)
Thanks for the fun weekend, Nate and Sisi! Isn't family great?

Hey!
That sushi sound great! We love Sushi at our house. My dad taught me how to make it. It tastes sooo good and it is a lot cheaper than going to the restaurant. If you ever want to know how I can tell you, it is so easy. It is fun to have Sushi nights with your friends!
