We took a trip over to Salt Lake for a weekend. It was a long drive with these girls....and we did not have much time to relax but it was well worth it. Some of our best friends from Florida and from southern Utah were going to be in town on the same weekend! We couldn't pass up the opportunity of seeing them. It was such a great time!!!! I also loved being in SLC. We stayed downtown at the Little America Hotel (thanks for the recommendation Jared) and we had a blast. Adam ended up sick Sunday morning, with all the food we tried to eat (we have many favorite restaurants there) so I had to drive all the way home. :) Oh well.....I was happy to. It was so sad to see him laying down in the grass at the truck stop in Rawlins. Poor guy. Luckily, he recovered for work the next morning.
Charlotte pointed and said, "Look Mom, Joseph Smith!" I was so thrilled to see that my little girl knows who Joseph Smith is. She recognized him all by herself. It made me tear up a bit. :) Kids are so sweet!!!!!
The Joseph Smith memorial building is so beautiful. I love visiting this place. We ate at the restaurant and really enjoyed it. I also loved that I got to spend the evening with some of my dearest girlfriends from my days at Orange Coast College in Costa Mesa, CA. We were in the L.D.S. (Lambda Delta Sigma) sorority together.
Thanksgiving Point......now that I have kids, this was actually a pretty fun place to go. We chose to visit the Country Farm. I learned a lot about bugs while everyone else went on a hay ride.
Then we checked out the local In-N-Out. I cannot believe they are in Utah......how come they didn't have that when I was living there? So not fair. :) Anywho....it was D-licious!
Another thing I looked forward to on this trip was the first tasting of my friend's gourmet bake shop, "The Sweet Tooth Fairy." Words cannot describe how moist and flavorful these cupcakes were. I enjoyed the cake bites the most though. They were featured on Rachel Ray last year and I now "taste" why. ;) Way to go Megs!!!!!
