Date Night iPhone Photos

Howie called me up at work one day last week and said "I'd like to go on a date this Saturday."  I said "Ok, do you know what you would like to do?"  "Yeah, I want to go to the temple since it's been a while since we've been.  Walk around and look at the lights, and then eat at The Roof."  Be still my heart.  Howie rarely plans things out so, you can imagine my amazement when he had a detailed itinerary of what he would like to go and do.  "Ok, I'll make the reservation!"

And so, we did sealings in the temple.
We walked around the new Deseret Book store.
Got warm in the JSM building.
And enjoyed the beautiful view from the 10th floor.
Here is a rose in glass that they had on display at The Roof.  Cool, huh?
Dinner was marvelous.  I've been to The Roof once before for a wedding dinner and I couldn't really remember what I thought of it.  But, this was really good.  I highly recommend the chicken cordon blue.
It was a great night to spend together.  I love all these little date nights that we've been having.  It's good we've been having them because I start school soon and who knows what kind of free time I'll have after that!

Kurt Bestor and Temple Square


On Saturday Howie and I enjoyed a lovely breakfast at Mimi's Cafe (the only thing Mimi's is good for in my opinion).
Afterward, we headed to the Kurt Bestor Concert at Abravanel Hall.
Here is the Kurt Bestor stage.  You can see Kurt there on the screens.

One of his special guests was American Idol Jason Castro!
Here he is performing "Hallelujah", which he also performed on A.I..
On Sunday night I went to Temple Square with my family.
Howie had to work that night so, he couldn't join us. 
The lights were amazing, but for some reason they didn't put lights on the big, big trees.
That made me sad. 


Here is everyone minus me.  Someone had to take the picture! 
Here's the nativity. 

This Temple is so gorgeous. 

It was a lovely 50ยบ while we checked out the lights, but we did get rained on.
We all went home soaked, but it was a fun evening!
