Weekend Wrap-Up

I'm sitting here, sipping my Diet Coke, watching This Means War (team Hardy or Pine??), and recalling what a great weekend I had!

Let's talk about it :)

Nothing to do with the weekend...
I just love this! 

Friday
Friday night some friends and I experienced the Manti Temple Pageant. A small group of us left around 4:40 pm to make the drive down to Manti in order to make sure we saved enough seats for our group (25+ people!).

While waiting, we got a delish turkey dinner, played Phase 10, talked, and enjoyed a warm, smoke-free (...have you seen those wild fires??) evening! Other friends started drifting in and we got all settled in for the show.


Although the pageant is pretty cheesy, I still love being reminded of the sacrifices made in order to restore the gospel of Jesus Christ and of the prophet Joseph Smith.

On our drive home, we saw wild fires spotting the highways.
We were right near the big red area....
Scary.


Saturday
I tried to sleep in....no such luck (boo) ! I did some laundry, ran to Costco, and did some other errands. Later in the evening, I brought a group of friends up to the Midway house. My aunt Kelly offered to have us up one night while she was in town.
She deserves some sort of "totally great aunt" award in my book :)

The night included:
swimming
ping pong
laughing
hot tubbing
A game or two of P.I.G
laughing
Dance Central
Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows
and laughing!

(sorry, no pictures...too busy having fun!)

It was fun to get out of Provo, enjoy some fresh air, and friends :)


Sunday
I went to church early to meet with the Bishop to receive a new calling. I was released from my stake calling about a month ago, so I was excited for my next adventure! Turns out I will get another opportunity to teach Sunday School in my singles ward. I did this a few semesters ago and it was a great learning experience!


We had wonderful church services and then I enjoyed a very quiet and relaxing afternoon at home.
As of this morning, I am living alone!

One of my roommates moved out in May to get married, another went home for a month, and the other moved back to Arizona.

Anyone wanna come keep me company?? :)


Glad that...
the 4th is in 3 days
St. George is in 4 days
D.C. is in 10 days
San Fran is in 18 days



Hope your weekend was just as bright!
