Ok so where to start....hmm...We had a heck of a weekend in Utah meeting Clarks BYU buddies, hanging out with family, going to conference, and much more. We arrived in Utah on friday morning and spent that day driving around BYU with Clark hearing about all his funny stories, seeing where he stayed, and also going to the book store. After that we met up with his old friends Corby and Richard. It was so nice to finally meet them and put faces to their names, they are alot of fun. We all went out to dinner with Cody and Amber meeting up too. It was a great time. On saturday after watching Conference Amber and I headed off shopping to the famous Tia Pan. It was a great store and I couldn't believe the prices. We then went to Ikea, michaels, and my favorite: Archivers. (they have it in MN but haven't made it down to AZ yet, which is crazy!!) Amber and I met up with our hubbys at Red Robin after Priesthood. The rest of the evening us girls (corby, amber and I) chated away while making Brooklyn her initials to put in her room and they boys played ps3. We called it a night at like 2:30 but Clark and Richard stayed up till 6 in the morning. Yeah, they are crazy. Clark said he hasn't stayed up like that in years, he can't even remember the last time he did. Sunday we watched morning session and then headed to SLC with Amber and Cody to the 2nd session of general conference. It was my first time in Tempe square for many many years, I don't even remember how old I was the last time I was there. Richard's brother Scottie gave us his tickets which was really nice of him. It was a really neat experience to be there in the conference center, to hear MoTab live, and to be so close with the Prophet and the Apostles. I really enjoyed the talks and to hear President Monson close the meetings. He is the only man who can have you laughing and then crying within seconds apart! It really hit me when he closed with " I will pray for you Brother and Sisters and you pray for me and together we can achieve much." (sadly they don't have his exact words yet) What a great man. We then spent the rest of the day in SLC. We were on vacation and needed to stay in the city to pick up our rental car at the airport at about 8 so we went out to dinner. We were bad and what was ironic was that our waitress's name was Sin. (Its pernounced Seen) We later got our rental car and headed back to Orem to spend the night at Amber and Cody's. Man did we all sleep well and hard that night. Monday morning Clark and I went and visited my Grandpa Farmer and Lilian in American Fork. Luckily they were home and we got to spend some time with them. They took us out to lunch to Wendy's, which was nice of them, and enjoyed being with them. It was soo cute, Lilian ordered a Stack attack and Grandpa ordered a Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger. When they sat down they ate each others' food without noticing. Clark and I couldn't say anything, it was too cute. Afterwards we then drove up to provo canyon and enjoyed the cool weather. It was snowing off and on all monday morning. Well, we said goodbye to Provo, Orem and SLC late last night after our flight was delayed about 2 hours!! Thank you to all who helped make this weekend a fun one!! We had a blast... |
