My younger brother just had a birthday. He is the most considerate person I know. Anthony tried to make everyone feel special and always rememberd birthdays. He has moved away and I was thrilled that so many people remembered his birthday this year. He has a really tough job and is far from all his family, except his cute wife. She loves her new job. Aunt Sue was beyond excited to see them both and kept hugging and kissing them and got angry when anyone called to take away attention. It made Anth and Salina feel great. We had a few favorites while he was here. 1. Hires is a hamburger joint that has been around since 1959, way
before my time. They used to have the roller skating type car hops who now just wear comfortable shoes. Long ago I worked for a bank called Capitol City (a story for another day) where Don Hale the founder of Hires used to bank along with his daughter Nancy. They were a really nice family I loved his wife who was very kind. I think the daughter hubby was a police officer who also was a neat person. All of this made it even cooler that my family had been loyal fans of hires from the get go. They now have many locations. I have had several great moments at Hires. We always go there as a family after a death and even after my next old favorite Anthony's wedding sealing. They make the best rootbeer around. In fact it is the only rootbeer I drink. I do not like cola or carbonation, but when at Hires I order a rootbeer with extra vanilla. I love the root beer freeze too where the blend up vanilla ice cream with rootbeer. They make their own buns, fry sauce, veggie
burger (MY FAVORITE veggie burger) dressing, root beer, fresh cut fries the list goes on and on. I lately have ordered the roasted turkey grilled with cranberry- yum! While Anthony was in town for a quick minute we treated him for his birthday to an old favorite- what a fun way to enjoy 2 old favorites.
2. Glause Bakery- a family spot since long before my time. They make a cake that we all enjoy and we were able to get one for him. 3. Crown Burger- not so much a fav of mine but my men love it. 4. Aunt Sue just like the good old days- she is so funny right now. 5. Visited Aunt Shugs grave. Boy do we miss her.

I love hires! I haven't eaten there in so long (like way before I got married). I think you just planned my next date night, Missy!

You have a great family Missy!!!
Always feel better after reading your blog. :)

I knew I loved you and Anthony for some reason...besides the fact that you're so wonderful. :) My family favorites are Hires and Glaus. What cake do you get? We get the chocolate rum. I had it for my 1st birthday cake and I might get it for Ellie's. My Dad celebrated our births by having Hires rootbeer! I loved reading your post. It makes me hungry. :) Love you!
Cute Missy. So fun to read about you and your cute family. I will be checking back often.
Angie- let me know what you get.
Brooke- we always get the choc mint. but I love the pumpkin spice with cream cheese and white choc ove rthe top or the lemon or well all that I have tried. It sure is yummo- and Anth the last time he went saw Pres. Monson there- we have good taste huh?
I love Hires, too! Doesn't everyone? I have so many great high school and college memories there! I love the turkey sandwich with cranberry...mmm, I'm getting really hungry.
