We drove up to Salt Lake on Friday after school. We went shopping and messed around. I was able to pick up my ring that has been at the jewelers for at least three weeks - so I was happy about that. We also ran a few other errand and went to Costco and Ikea and just had a good afternoon. We drove up to Salt Lake and checked in at our hotel. We stayed at Hampton Inn (of course, bad sadly it wasn't $29.00 a night :P ). That night we got hungry for something good - but didn't want to go out, so we ordered in Pizza from The Pie. It was super good! We ordered the Greek Pizza and it was Yummy! I wasn't sure what to expect - but I love greek food so I figured it would be good and it was!
On Saturday morning we watched President Hinckley's funeral. I am glad I had the opportunity to see it and to listen to the stories that were shared. He was truly an amazing man. We spent the afternoon driving around window shopping. I am STILL looking for a good pair of shoes and a jacket. (I know winter is getting close to being over - so I finally decided that I should get me a jacket. Dustyn would be happy so he could wear his own!!) But no luck. I just don't know where to shop anymore. We found some really cute coats in the mall and I was excited to get one - they were all too small! Grrr..... so I am still looking. At least we got to eat at Cafe Rio so the trip was worth it!! My back is still not ready to shop on hard floors so it was a quick trip.
Saturday night we went to the Blue Man Group. It was a lot of fun and crazy! It was so random, but a lot of fun and great music. Afterwards we went to the Thaifoon and had dinner. It was so good. I love that place!!
On Sunday we took a drive up the the Salt Lake Cemetery and were able to see President Hinckley's grave. We drove around and found most of the other past LDS Presidents. It was really neat. I have never driven through the cemetery and looked at the headstones. I would really like to go back and spend a little more time there (preferably when it's a little warmer!!). We were also able to meet up with a friend and hang out for awhile.
One the way home we went and visited Dustyn's mom. It was good to see her. Then the drive home!!! It took us almost three hours to get from Genola to Richfield. It was crazy and slow. The roads were bad and there were cars off the road all over the place. But we finally made it home. While we were driving, Dustyn was watching The Ultimate Gift! From what I could hear - it was a really good movie. If you haven't seen it, you should rent it!
Well that is about all - that was our weekend to Salt Lake City. Of course I forgot to grab the charger for my camera and it was pretty much dead so we didn't really get photos. Just a few.

Sounds like you have much fun here in Salt Lake. I have to admitt that The Pie has THE BEST pizza I have EVER eaten!!
Looks like you had a fun weekend. I hate shopping for clothes and stuff - it is SO hard to find stuff that I like and that fits me and that actually looks good on me!
Glad you had fun - hope your back is back to normal soon!
Amanda - do you live near SLC? And pizza from "The Pie" is so good! It was the first time that I have eaten there. YUM! Now I wanna go again!!
Jenny - ME TOO! I am the worst clothes shopper ever! I can never find anything that fits. You would think that would motivate me to lose a few pounds. Ha ha. And I just don't look cute in all the styles they have going on. When you find something good, you'll have to let me know! Oh yeah - and I HATE trying clothes on in the store. Blah! This is the reason I always look so scroungy! :)
And you didn't even visit with us... :oP
NICE! We went to the BMG a few years ago and had a GREAT time too. I've never had a pizza from The Pie before, but now we're going to have to try it! Next time you're in SLC we'll have to meet and hang out :) Us adoption hopefuls have to stick together
I am so thinking that we should have a party/get together in SLC at "The Pie" for all of us Adoption Blogger friends! :) That would be fun!
Yeah, definitely!
It looks like you had a lot of fun. Tony and I need to get away and do something fun.
