Conference Trip

Hola mi amigos!!

I realize it's been quite some time since I posted, and my only excuse is that I have no camera...

usually I use the parentals but "someone" decided to go and lose the memory card,

and therefore we haven't taken any pictures in a while...

which is a total bummer because this past weekend was full of amazing memories

that I wish I could have stored somewhere other than my brain.

But I will try to do this post justice using only words to capture the

essence of just how awesome this weekend really was.

Thursday

-flew to SLC, Utah

Friday

-Went to Salt Lake Temple

-shopping

-relaxing

-site seeing

-Dinner @ "The Roof"

(if you've never been you must go before you die...it's amazing...expensive, but amazing)

-Joseph Smith movie @ the Memorial Bldg.

(cried my eyes out)

-Dance @ Studio 600

(not so much worth the $10 bucks we paid to get in)

Saturday

-General Conference

(Kandice and I were lucky enough to sit about 12 rows

from the front thanks too Uchdtorf's body guard who is a

family friend of the Smith's and Winn's)

-Work the corner haggling people for tickets

(quite an experience...let me tell ya)

(surprising, I know)

-Dinner @ Zuppa's

-games, swimming, ice cream, staying up way to late, etc...

Sunday

Brad, Kellie, Dane, Holly, Dave, Shelley...

Monday

-"California here I come,

right back where I've started from"

(I could barely wait to see Jake)

I was so lucky to get to go on this trip with the singles ward...

it was the most spiritual, uplifting, fun, sleep deprived, awesome,

rewarding weekend I've had in quite some time.
