FAMILY DAY

After saying good bye to Junior and Heidi this morning, we headed over to Ben's house.  He hosted 18 family members today.  It was so much fun.  We went to church together, had a YUMMY homemade dinner by Alana, delicious cookies by Tina and a fantastic game that I had never played before.  The host (Ben) pretty much skunked us all.  Bad form I say.  But good times all around. :)

JUNIOR'S VAN

This is the day we've been waiting for.

It finally came and it was as amazing as I imagined.

Today we were able to meet Heidi and Junior

and deliver to them Benjamin's van.

I know he was smiling from above.

Before handing it off though, 

Stevie and I spent the morning 

cleaning, washing and decorating his van.  

It was a fun way to pass the time 

while we were anxiously awaiting their arrival into town.  

Look at this boy's smile...he LOVES his new van.

GIRL'S NIGHT OUT

Emily, April, Stevie and I hit the town tonight.

We ate at:
Pizzeria Seven Twelve

and it was WOW!

Spent a little time at Border's Bookstore,

and then finished it off at Farr's Ice Cream Shop.

It was delightful.
Thanks for a most excellent time.

THE INDIAN PALACE

If you love Indian Food...head to the Indian Palace in Provo.  It's authentic and fantastic!  So is the owner!  Stevie and I met up with one of our all time favorite missionaries that served in our ward back home.  Johnny frequents this place often and is practically BFF with this guy.  Good times, good food, great company!

TIMPANOGAS TEMPLE

You CANNOT visit Utah and NOT go to the temple.  There's just no excuse.  There's one on every corner it seems.  This one is probably my favorite in Utah...although there are some I have yet to go to.  I grabbed my sister-n-law Alana to go with me.  She's always a fun time.  We were both so grateful for the opportunity to slip away for a short time to feel the peaceful spirit that resides in the House of the Lord.

SUMMER SWIM

We can't visit Utah and not swim at Ben's community pool.  It's pretty fantastic.
