Vegas Girls Trip

What an amazing weekend!

When we fled Utah on Friday it was a blizzard, but the weather improved as we drove south and eventually got to a seemingly warm 65 degrees.



We enjoyed fine dining,

touring the Bellagio gardens,

lots of shopping...

...beautiful sunshine...

...lots of walking...

And of course an incredible show.


She never disappoints.

My mom was so sweet to treat us to such an amazing trip. We spent Friday night in St. George then Saturday in the beautiful Caesar's Palace. Next time we go it better be warm because I want to swim in that pool!

We had many laughs as Morgan (Morgapedia as Jeff calls her) entertained us with her many anatomy stories and weird facts.

There was a desperate Diet Coke (for me and Mom) and Dr. Pepper (for Meg) search, which led us to the conclusion that neither beverage exists in Caesar's Palace or Nevada for that matter.

We had a blast and I can't wait until our next girl's outing.

Weekend Love

This past weekend was amazing. On Friday we tried a new sushi place and despite having to give our waitress the stink eye for 10 minutes before she actually took our drink order, the food was delish!

The rest of the weekend was spent relaxing and watching BYU. We love our weekends and always plan the most fun things, even if its just lounging around.

The next three weekends will be no exception...

This coming weekend will be a girls trip to Vegas to see the fabulous Celine, dine at the Cheesecake Factory, stay at Caesar's and hopefully get some sun!

The next weekend brings General Conference, which is always fun, and following that we're off to Costa Rica!

Fruit and Veggie Fun

I finally signed up for Bountiful Baskets, which I've been wanting to do for a long time.
Its a food co-op that runs in most of the western states and its amazing. Seriously.

The co-op is run solely by volunteers and buys fresh fruits and vegetables straight from farms in Mexico. See that picture above? I got all of that for $15. And...I didn't have to go grocery shopping...

My bounty includes:
13 clementines
5 apples
3 mangoes
1 cantaloupe
8 bananas
5 tomatoes
1 bundle of celery
2 big stalks of broccoli
1 head of cauliflower
cilantro
1 bundle of asparagus
and 1 bundle of chard (researching what to do with this one)

But that's a lot right? Check out their site here. They offer other options beside the standard basket and deliver to pretty much every populated (and less populated) area.
