So, last weekend (9/5-7) was a productive one! We wanted to save our Friday Night Date for Saturday so that we could go to our favorite breakfast place, JB's. They have an amazing weekend breakfast buffet that literally has everything we love. We did that first thing in the morning on Saturday. After that, we got cleaned up and went to the temple. We did a session and, as always, it was amazing! After the temple, we treated ourselves to an ice cream cone from Burger King (cause they are only 75 cents!) and then went home to clean.
That night, I had a party for a friend in my ward that I went to while Waiaka stayed home and worked on his calling. At about 8PM we drove down to Idaho Falls and went grocery shopping at Winco, our number one store for everything we need. While we were down there, we also got a tire plug for our car because one of the tires had a screw in it. We came home that night, put the groceries away, and watched a movie to celebrate our productive, but fun, day!
This week has been super busy but amazingly fun. On Monday afternoon, my mom and brother came to town! My brother also goes to BYU-Idaho so my mom was helping him fly his stuff out from Chicago. Monday night, my mom, brother, sister, brother-in-law, husband, and I went to Pizza Pie Cafe and enjoyed lots and lots of pizza, pasta, and salad together. Afterwards, we went to my sister's house and played games and laughed til our stomachs' hurt. Who would have thought that Mouse Trap could keep 5 adults entertained for a few hours?
Tuesday, I got most of the day off of work, so we went to the Idaho Falls Zoo. It is quite a small zoo, but it was really nice out and it was fun to be with my family. I had to work for a few hours, but after I was done we went to my sister's house again and had a barbecue. The food was great and so was the company. We played games again that night and said our goodbyes to my mom as she had to leave the next morning. It was such a short visit, but very worth it. She and my dad are hoping to make a trip out here soon, hopefully before it snows!
It has been fun and exciting to have our family and friends back in town for school. We were able to have dinner with my brother, my cousins Cassie and Lauren, my uncle Al and some of his friends at Pizza Pie Cafe. Waiaka and I are probably their #1 customers! After dinner we watched the BYU football team slaughter Houston.
This Friday night's date has to be one of my favorites that we have done so far! We started out doing a fast food progressive dinner, but ended up just trying to get as much food as we possibly could with $10 dollars at four different fast food restaurants. We recorded it all and made a video so you could see how it went!
We spent Saturday night at the movies with our friends which is always fun. We saw Edge of Tomorrow. It was a pretty good movie, but even more fun because we got to be with our friends again.
Thanks for reading, and sorry it was so long but I hope you enjoyed it and be sure to share this with your friends and keep an eye out for our next post!
