Date Night

    This past weekend was wonderful, short, but wonderful. Friday night we went to dinner and a movie. Classic Red Robin for us; for Carter the Burnin' Love Burger and for me the A1 Peppercorn Burger. Saturday (after completing homework of course) Carter and I attended a preseason BYU men's basketball game. It was lots of fun! We had free tickets from my work in the second row, 50-yard line . . . I mean center court? I'm not used to basketball lingo - much more of a football gal!


   We ran into some old friends of ours... Elder Aiken, Some guys from Cart's mission (I forgot to get pictures) 

and... The Presidential Candidates

Romney in a BYU T-shirt and Obama in a U of U T-shirt....only at BYU. Needless to say, the crowd was extremely entertaining. 

Then on Sunday we had a special Stake Conference. President Callister (Presidency of the Seventy) spoke along with the Provo Temple President and his wife. President Callister gave a wonderful talk all about celestial marriage. Then we had our friends over for dinner, Carter made an awesome potato casserole. And after dinner we played a game of hearts.It was a blast! We had set the limit at 50 due to time and on the last round Carter was at 43. We were joking around while dealing that Carter needed to get exactly 7 and then he'd win the game. Well. . . he did! No idea if it was luck or if he actually tried to . . . be he got exactly 7! Although the game was tons of fun, we still really miss game night with Heidi, Jeff, Grandma, and Grandpa. I could use a game of Screwball Rummi right now... :) 

Now it's off to another busy week. Hope all is well with you!

  1. OH, we need a good round of screwball.... What a fun weekend. Where are you working? I must have missed that memo!? I heard Elder Callister at the devotional during ed week. That must have been a very inspiring conference.
