Happy Pioneer Day

I'm all for any holiday that gets me a day off of work!! Anyway, I started the day by hiking to Timp Cave with Simone. She's been bugging me for awhile to do this with her and since I've never been up there before I didn't really know what all the fuss was about...well, now I know. I figured it would be the same as going up the trail at the mouth of Provo Canyon but boy was I wrong. It was definitely a good work out!! I really expected to be sore the next day (and maybe have to call in to work sick?) but no such luck.

I guess that was a good thing though since I ended up getting some tickets at work on Friday for Norm and I to go to the Pioneer Day Commemoration Concert at the Conference Center--starring the Osmonds! Now, I've never really big that big of a fan (they are more from my husband's time period) but it was a fun show and it was the first time either of us have gone to an event at the Conference Center. A good date night.

On Saturday, I went to a BBQ at the Johnson's, our old neighbors. I'm glad we still get to see each other even though they moved away (ALL the way to Springville!) When I was talking to Kobe in Chicago the other day he sounded a little down and I was thinking that maybe he was home sick. Nope, he told me that he missed his friends, Gavin and Gunner Johnson! Go figure!! (Which reminds me...Shilo--we need to make a playdate once my kids get back--I promised Kobe :0)
