Weekend, Including Thursday

Thursday:
Boating blind date with Matti, Sid, and their friends.
Denny's for breakfast dinner.

This is Colby.  My date.  Obviously.  Nice kid.

It got real cold so I huddled down into one of the little cubbies on the boat.

Pringles!!!

Like I said.  It got cold.

YSA ward retreat at Spring Haven.  

Aggies beat Utes.

Won a date.

Karaoke.

Tickle tradesies.

Avengers til 4 am.

So pretty!  I loved all of the blossoms everywhere throughout the temple.

I loved walking through the temple.  The whole time, "I want this more than I can tell" kept running through my mind. I loved the intro video when Elder Holland said that he can't describe heaven, in all its paradisiacal glory, without his wife and family.  That hit me so strongly.  I got teary thinking about being in the bride's room - unfortunately we were unable to go in there - and loved the peace in that place!

Some wardies!  Love these girls - they are so nice to kinda adopt me into their little friend crowd since most the members of my normal hangy outty group have all moved away. 

Wardies again.  This YSA retreat was unbelievably fun.  We stayed at this huge lodge that had like 5 different wings to it.  We played dating games and did karaoke and watched a movie and just had a grand ol' time!

Saturday:

Home from retreat.

Park City.

Outlets.

Spicy Buffalo Wings.

Hot-tubbing.

Hilarious single's ward.

Needed nap.

Lydee's Birthday dinner.

CES fireside.

She wanted "cheeseburgers" for her birthday dinner.

Well then don't ask me to smile when I have a mouth-full of food.

I can't believe she is FIVE years old!!

We gave her the little Repunzel costume that she asked for.  She is such a little girl.  My mini me. :)

She wished to be at Disneyland.  Good wish, I say.

Playin' some Polly Pockets.  A favorite past time of mine.

I'm not as good at it as I used to be.  

Well there ya go.

Muah!!
