I never seem to remember to take pictures often enough to post very often so here are a few from the last couple of months... In October I was able to take a much needed trip back to California for my niece's baptism. I hadn't been home since last Christmas... 10 long months. I think that is the longest I have ever been in Utah without a trip back home. It was so fun to be able to go to Charley's baptism and hang out with my family for a few days... My mom and I even managed to squeeze in a trip to the beach, which was also long overdue.
Also, Chris has been playing a lot of disc golf lately. I'm not a huge fan of the sport but I did go with him a few weeks back and I'm glad I did because I got to witness his hole in one. For those of you who are not familiar with disc golf... a hole in one is a pretty big deal. On that particular hole, you can't even see the basket from where you throw... but when Chris threw, we all heard the chains clink and sure enough he'd gotten an ace. His buddies that we were with handed him a permanent marker to record it and they all signed the disc he threw. Needless to say, Chris was pretty ecstatic.
Also... My mom and dad came to town for my dad's birthday. We had dinner at Chris and Mikelle's that day and in the Foster home you get to blow out a candle at every meal... so this is my dad blowing out the candle from his pizza.
That Monday I took a day off work to hang out with my parents... we went to up to Salt Lake for some shopping, lunch at the garden room, and a nice stroll through Memory Grove... which was super fitting since it was Veterans Day. It was perfect weather and so nice to have the day off to spend with family.
Temple Square is one of my favorite things about Utah. I feel pretty lucky to live in such a beautiful place and its especially nice to be able to enjoy the place where I live with people I love.
