Spoiled!

Since I am visiting my family and they are all taking their traditional Sunday hibernation I figured I would update. I have decided I am terrible at taking pictures so unfortunately there will be none. Today is a very beautiful Easter day and I am sooo grateful for what our Lord and Savior has done for us.

On April 3rd I was spoiled..hence the title. It was my birthday and my parents took me out for my all time favorite food even though they can't really stand it. I ate to my hearts content and maybe even converted my dad a bit. My dad tried the Vegas Roll...yes my all time favorite food is sushi!! He had more than one bite and was brave enough to have some sake; IE raw salmon. He said it was very tender and wasn't as fishy as he thought it would be. I think he might even try some again.

After sushi I met up with some of my favorite people for shopping in SLC. Amanda, Annesha, and Abbie were so much fun to hang out and shop with. I loved seeing them and hearing all about what they have been up to. It was fun to see Amanda and Annesha's cute little boys too.

After driving home I got together with my little sister Jen for dinner and...you guessed it some more shopping!! We went to another of my favorite places to eat..Costa Vida!

I was sooo tired after such a fun filled day I went home and went to bed.

On Saturday Ryan took me out to dinner to Texas Roadhouse! The food was really good! I did however feel like I really was older when I turned to Ryan and said "I really kinda just wish we could be eating this at home on the couch watching a movie". He agreed so we had our food packed up..(after about two bites) and headed for home. Let me set the scene for you so you can understand our reasoning.

We got there after the priesthood session to find a huge line. They told us it would take about 15-20 min............after about an hour we were seated. We ordered and then started talking when to Ryan's left and my right a group of about 7 people in their 20's started telling stories. Oh yes, I could here every word of the guys sap story of his bad date and all the money he spent. Such a waste. On to every other persons dating horror stories (at the top of their vocal capacity I am sure. Yeah they were the type of people who were sooo beautiful on the outside and had sooo much money who couldn't understand why they weren't on dates. So ugly on the inside. We were sitting right next to a "half" wall. One of those were someone can peak over and talk with you. Well that is exactly what happened. Except it wasn't just anyone, it was a drunk waitress who put a roll up on the flat part and said "watch out, I am going to flick it". Then she proceeded to flick it off the wall into the lamp and almost hit me. I had to dodge out of the way. So yeah, I didn't feel too old asking our waitress to pack up our food and head for home.

Over the next few days the spoiling continued with presents from family, dinner at the in laws, and my cousins taking me out for Sushi. And, the celebration continues even til today with some Dream Cake. Yay, I am going to go wake up the hibernators to enjoy the springtime and my moms famous cake! Next time I will try to have pictures.
