fried green tomato traditions

Every summer we look forward to Rob & Liz and their kids coming to Utah to visit from Texas. This year was especially fun because they just had a new baby in May and we were so excited to meet him. We have a fun tradition of lunch and shopping at Gardner Village with the sister-in-laws and especially the fried green tomatoes. This year I finally remembered to have the waitress take a picture and although it didn't turn out great, it will have to do until Liz emails me hers, it turned out a lot better. I also invited Allie to come this year since she enjoyed the girls day out when Erin came to visit so much. Liz brought Sarah and the two of them loved hanging out the whole day. Something special about this trip was choosing some fun embroidery projects (aunt Jenny agreed to help us) that we can work on. And don't forget the fudge, the candy shop there has a million kinds of fudge and it's always agonizing trying to choose and stay under $10! This year we chose Mars Bar and we highly recommend it. Things we love about Aunt Liz are: 1. she is the nicest member of our entire family, everyone agrees. 2. she always remembers to give hugs and 3. she has an incredible spirit that everyone around her can feel. We love aunt Liz! We love her whole family actually, and baby Zachary lived up to the cuteness of his pictures for sure. Texas is so lucky.
