For the occasion we spent a couple days in Salt Lake. We went to Hogle Zoo with our friends Miquette and Jon. It was fun (pictures are on my camera at home...I'll post them later). I don't know if I'll be able to go to Willow Park Zoo anymore...it's lame compared to the Hogle Zoo. After the zoo we went to Hire's Big H for some Root Beer Floats. Super tasty. After that Miquette and Jon had to leave for a bridal shower or something. Anyway, me and Tyler decided we would go to The Gateway and find somewhere to eat dinner, but this was only like an hour after the biggest RB Float I have ever eaten on my own in my life, so I wasn't super hungry, but still we wanted real food in our bellies. We walked around for awhile hoping to work off the floats a little, it worked fairly well. We went to dinner at Biaggi's, it's an Italian place kinda kitty corner to the movie theater. It was good. I had a salad mostly cuz I wasn't that hungry and because in an effort to get rid of some extra weight (as mentioned in last post. Salad's are supposed to be healthy, right?) I figured a salad would be a good idea. It was really tasty. Tyler had Parmesan chicken with some pasta, he let me taste it and it was really good too. After dinner we went to Dick's sporting goods and I got some exercise clothes and Tyler got him some BRIGHT ORANGE running shoes. Seriously they are quite blinding. It's awesome. Once we had enough of walking around for one day we drove out to Tyler's dad's house in Tooele to spend the night. We spent about an hour or so just chatting and then we finally got to sleep. I was super tired from walking and being in the sun all day.
The next day we got up, ate breakfast, got our stuff together and went back to SL to visit City Creek. We hadn't been there yet since it opened and wanted to check it out. It's pretty sweet...the stores there are a little out of my price range though. I will say we found success at H&M though. I found this cute gray dress that was modest. It's knee-length and has a higher neck line than the shirt I was wearing at the time. The only immodest thing about it is that it doesn't have sleeves, so I'll have to wear a shirt underneath. That's fine I usually layer anyway so no big deal. While we were at H&M we thought we would see what Tyler's brother, Levi, and my brother, Andy, were doing for lunch. They both work at Zion's which is just on the corner accross from City Creek. Turns out they were planning on taking lunch about the same time so we asked if they wanted to meet up with us for a bit. It was fun to see them. Andy's wife and kids were meeting him for lunch too so we got to see them also. That was exciting. After lunch we just wandered in and out of stores finding cute things that of course were way too expensive for us. Once we had seen just about everything we got in the car and drove home. :)
It was a fun couple of days, but it made it really hard to get up and come to work today. I really wanted to stay home in my bed...
OH I almost forgot! I ordered me some running shoes from Nike. I would have bought some at Dick's when Tyler got his but they didn't have any that were really bright or cool looking. So when we got home last night I got online and customized a pair for me (that made them more...but it's fine, I hope.) I'm super excited for them to come!
Anyway, that was my birthday excitement. It was an epic time. :) Loved it.
