Friday we were able to go to a two of our friend's wedding reception. They have been married for a while, but were sealed in the temple on Friday and so they had a party to celebrate! So excited for them!!!!! Congratulations Hill family!
We also got to go to improv on Friday night. Brandon got to play in the show and the show was HILARIOUS. So much fun. Afterwards we went to Rick Rea's house with a bunch of people and a bunch of junk food (of which I only ate a very little bit because I was STARVING!) and watched a movie. It was good to hang out and have some fun with our friends.
Saturday, however, was even better than Friday! We got to sleep in and just cuddle and such in bed until noon! Then we got up and made ourselves a massive breakfast of waffles with strawberries for Brandon and grapefruit, strawberries, and yogurt for me, which was delicious!
We then readied ourselves in our finest apparel and headed off to the temple! We went to the Bountiful Temple this time, since our beloved Ogden Temple is now closed for the face lift and the Salt Lake one was just too much of a drive for us that day. The temple is always something I enjoy. We had such a refreshing time. It was much needed. And can I just say, the sun gleaming through the window of the Celestial Room is probably one of THE MOST GORGEOUS things I have ever seen. Love it.
After our session at the temple, we went to Costa Vida (always a favorite! I could eat it every day! But then I would be even fatter!!!) and enjoyed a nice dinner together. It was a lot of fun to just relax and not worry about cooking or clean up or the dreaded sink full of dishes. And Costa is just awesome. And to make it even better we had a coupon! So Brandon's burrito was "free!" Score!
For desert (I know I know, I'm supposed to be on a diet, but my "summer break" is over as of Monday cause I'm doing summer semester at school... So I needed one last hoorah before the final smack down on the diet) we went to Orange Leaf frozen yogurt! Can I just say, it is extremely delicious. I read about it on my friend's blog (it's one of their favorites) and we were right by it so we decided to hit it up! It was definitely worth it! A very good last hoorah!
When we got home we went on a super long walk from our house, all through Layton city park, to my grandparent's house, and then home. It was so much fun. We fed the ducks a bit and had a lot of fun. My favorite part of feeding the ducks was when there was a duck that was above some rapids in the river and he was swimming away from them. I said to him "if you swim down the rapids I'll give you a piece of bread." He immediately turned around and swam down the rapids! So I gave him bread. Yes, the ducks understand English. Or at least that one does! We also saw Natalie Portman (the black swan) hahah I'm so funny!
The day was fabulous! And today has been great too! Church was awesome, the 3 hour nap we took was awesome, the dinner we made together was awesome (consisting of left over ham, and thanks to Bountiful Baskets, mashed red potatoes, corn on the cob, salad made with spinach and romaine lettuce with celery, carrots, onions, avocados, and tomatoes in it, and fruit salad made with mangos, bananas, strawberries, grapes, honeydew, and apples! So yummy!) the walk we took through Layton park was awesome, the pictures we took are awesome, and just chillin at home with my honey while I type this and he plays his guitar is awesome!
I LOVE MY LIFE! I am so happy I can hardly stand it! I wish this happiness for everyone. Everyone should be able to feel the same joy in their own life! Love you all!!!
