Trevor's sisters and mom started a traditional "Girls Night" at Gardner's Village is SLC. This was my second year going with them and we had a great time! It seems like the word got out how fun it is, so the Village was packed FULL of witches. Its basically a Ladies Night and everyone dresses up as a witch and they have prizes and games and some stores have sales. We ate dinner at Archibalds and it was a 2.5 hour wait! It is crazy busy. We had fun just spending time together since we waited in lines EVERYWHERE. Here is the start of the night.
After our dinner got some fudge for Grandma, shopped and enjoyed some good crowd watching. Its always fun making time for family and getting closer to those you love.
Before I went there, I got to meet up with one of my mission comps, Leah, who is hilarious. We met up at Settebello's and I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn't eaten there! Real Italian pizza...with a little shoppe full of great gelato! It was Leah's first time meeting Ryker and we had a blast watching him run around in circles and giggling. I am grateful for friends who take the time to visit with us...we are so blessed to have good friends in our life...even if we live a couple hours away.
While I was away at witches night, Trev headed down to Provo. I was extremely jealous cause he was spending time with some of his mission buds, and just a town away from my bestie who got sick and we couldn't see each other. :( It was great for Trev to have some time with his friends and he said Ryker had a lot of fun being the center of attention there.
We then stayed the night at Trevor's grandmas. I don't know her very well, so it was nice to get to know her! She has so much to offer the world and is a great inspiration to me. I am glad we took the time to see her, and we will probably stay with her more often because she is such a neat lady. She sang in the MoTab and traveled all over the world. She has started taking cello lessons, and picked up water aerobics. I feel like she taught me that I am never too old to start something I've wanted to do...so thank you grandma for your example.
We also visited with Trevor's grandpa who has been having some health problems the last while. Although he was in a lot of pain, he looked great! He isn't much of a talker, but I always feel grateful we stopped by to see him. It was definitely a "grand" weekend!
We were lucky enough to be in town for our neices and nephews primary program and they did a great job! His sister Crystal is so crafty and I always enjoy spending time with her and soaking in her ideas! We headed home and then celebrated with my family my big brothers birthday. He turned 27. His wife is the cutest thing ever and had some super delicious treats. It feels weird to think he's 27 and I'll be 26 in less than a month. I feel so old! I still feel like I'm 18, how did all these years go so fast?
Anyway, we had a great weekend, but as always, we are glad to be home back on our schedule. I am truly blessed for the time I could spend with people who mean the world to me.
