Girls Weekend!

This weekend we had a great time, but we missed you Amy! Friday night we went to Tuconos. It was a great feast. I think I had three favorites. Sirloin Tip Roast, all the drinks, and the roasted pineapple. Yum!!!

After dinner we made a quick dash to the mall for Emmy to get a couple of things she needed. Then we were going to go to the show, but the show times were not cooperating. So, we ended up at Emmy's house to watch a DVD. We had to wait a bit for Boyd to finish his movie so we just visited. When it came time to watch a DVD, Boyd told us to watch at least 10 minutes of the movie he was watching. The deal was, if we didn't want to watch it after the first 10 minutes, we could change the movie. Well, we ended up watching it all the way through. It was called "Ink Heart." It was very interestingly good. Kind of a fantasy movie.

The next morning we all got ready and headed to Salt Lake City. We then went to the LDS Church History Museum. It was really nice. They have some original paper documents of some of the revelations and some of the translations of the Book of Mormon. It was really cool to read these scriptures written this way. The exhibits were really nice. I think some of the ones I liked seeing besides the manuscripts were the large angel Moroni that came off a church in the Washington D.C. area. Also, the latter-day prophets display was really fun to see.

We had so much fun at the museum that we didn't have time to go to the home and garden show that was going on. We would have had some time if some of us didn't have to get back to Roosevelt for the adult session of stake conference. So, after seeing the museum, we went to lunch and played at the South Towne Mall. Then it was off to Sam's Club to get some needed supplies for home.

We were running a little late by the time we got back to the Orem area. Tabitha and Shari needed some things from Michael's Craft Store, so that was our final stop before we picked Laurel up from Grandma Holman's house and headed home!

It was a fun trip. Everyone is looking forward to our next Girl's Weekend! Some are hoping we can include a trip to the temple on the Saturday morning before we go have fun doing other things. I think this will add a good element to our weekend. Thanks girls! Hope everyone will be able to go next time!
