Labor Day Weekend Goodness

I love 3 day weekends. So much. They are my favorite. This one was much needed (getting burned out at work). We planned for some fun activities to take full advantage of our time off work. Friday night we went on a double date with Kira and Jeff. We went to the Nickelcade and then to Culver's. We worked up a sweat at the Nickelcade (we aren't competitive at all) and then had tasty treats after. It was a lot of fun to hang out with them.

Saturday morning I got a group of our friends together to go canoeing at Utah Lake. It was us, the Lisonbees, the Chriswells, Carmen and Luisa, and Jessica and Jody. Simon and I fought the whole first half on the way to the lake. Haha. He kept running me into trees (of course it was completely his fault... wink wink), but then we got the hang of it and the way back was much more fun. It is so beautiful in Utah. I have really loved living here. After canoeing, most of us went to Guru's to get some food. Such a fun morning!

This time with me in it... go BYU!

After canoeing and eating out we went to my parent's house to watch the BYU game. We got there about 1/2 through the 2nd quarter. The whole game stressed me out, but it was so good and of course the Hail Mary at the end was amazing!!!! Sad our QB will be out all season though. 

Sunday we had a family dinner and then Monday Simon and I did some shopping and then went to my parent's for a BBQ and to play this new game Kate and Dalt have. It's called "Viking Chess" and was a lot of fun. The rules are too complicated to explain in a blog... so if you ever want to learn let me know and we can have you over!
