Utah
Every December I like to take a little trip to Utah to see family and friends...and also to experience a little "white" before Christmas. I had a great time on my vacation! My favorite moments were as follows:
My dad and I took a drive to the Salt Lake Temple to do a session. I hadn't been to the Salt Lake Temple since I first went through in April, so it was great to actually understand what was going on this time so I could more fully take it in. It is such a beautiful temple!!! After our session we ate dinner in the temple cafeteria and then strolled along Temple Square to see the amazing Christmas lights. It truly was magical!
The other highlight of the trip was seeing my adorable friends! Every year when I come they make a special effort to get together and have a Christmas party while I am in town. It was so good to see them and their families. I love these girls so much!
And finally, I LOVED spending time with my family and this little cutie:

ouch!
A few weeks ago (yes, I am behind in my blogging) I decided to put up my Christmas decorations. I was putting some lights up in my kitchen window, barefoot, when I just happened to step in a certain direction I shouldn't have. I heard a cracking under my foot and then noticed a sharp pain in a certain region. And this, my friends, is what I pulled out of my foot:
No, it is not a red tipped Christmas light...it is very much filled with my blood (sorry if you just threw up). So I hobbled to my kitchen sink and then crawled to my bedroom (to avoid blood droplets all over the house) to get a bandaid. Needless to say, it was a little tender to the touch and difficult to walk on for a few days. A word of advice: Don't put up Christmas lights while barefoot.
And now for something a little more appetizing. I have this friend who makes pies. For years (it seems) she has promised that she would make me a pie. Whenever she asks what kind of pie I would like I always respond with, "A man pie." Well, the other day I did something extremely generous for this friend, and she told me that it was time she pay me back with a pie. This is what I got:
It was a fantastic surprise and a very delicious one too! Thanks Daja! I loved every bit of it!
