Another Busy Weekend!

Saturday morning we headed down to Salt Lake to be there when a good friend of mine was endowed in the Salt Lake temple. Erin is a woman I had the great opportunity to teach while I was serving in Anderson, Indiana on my mission. She's such a babe!

Being in the Celestial Room with her, a bunch of mission friends and companions, my mission president and his wife was incredible. The church is true!!

After the temple, we threw a surprise birthday party for Erin's 5-year-old daughter, Teagan. It was really fun to see her again (it's been almost two years!). We ate at El Farol in Midvale, had cake and ice cream, and just enjoyed each other.

On our way back home, Robbie and I drove through a bunch of areas throughout Bountiful, Centerville, Farmington and Fruit Heights (who doesn't like to oogle over mansions?) before we stopped to visit his parents in Kaysville. After visiting with them for a while, we decided to spend the night, and left Sunday morning to make it to our church on time.

Since our friend Jeni is without her husband for another week, we took her with us up Providence Canyon and made dinner and hung out. While we were sitting there, her friends Trevor and Amy, with their daughter Kailey showed up to take some pictures of their family and offered to take some of us. We love meeting new friends!

Thai Swordfish and Handsoap



Tonight was the Best Friends Child Development Center Christmas Party held at Hamilton's in Logan. It was A-mazing. We were allowed to choose anything on the menu under $30, but I'm certain that we would have been allowed the lobster if we had really wanted it. I chose Thai Swordfish over rice noodles. Wow. It was delicious. It was really funny to see the waiters and all of my coworkers go into a tailspin trying to find something for me on the menu that was allergen-free...I don't think I've repeated my allergies in one setting more often than this one tonight....it was slightly embarassing.

Afterward, my boss, Heather, announced to everyone that we are all getting raises. Right on.

Oh! and with the gift exchange I came home with handsoap. Now, if that doesn't make your night, I don't know what could.
