So I took a much needed break from work and from everyday stress and relaxed and had a lot of fun doing it. I don't think I took any phone calls, texts, or e-mails. I was being selfish and just took time for myself and really only thought of myself. OK, so maybe I didn't do that for all 4 days I had off, but I certainly toned it down a bit. I had a wonderful time and got to spend most of it doing what I like to do best, spending time with my hubby Jarrod. We pretty much went on a 4 day date and it was wonderful. I have a bunch of pics, so I will let them do most of the talking. Friday, we took my sister Brittany out to dinner for her birthday, check out my post on that. Saturday we went to Festival of Trees. It was so cool to see all the decorations and trees. People are so creative. We heard a few stories about what/who the tree represented. All the proceeds went to benefit Primary Children's hospital in SLC. We then took the trax up to Gallivan Plaza and where we watched the ice skaters enjoy their time on the ice and we sipped on hot chocolate and chowed down some old fashioned donuts(my fave). Sunday, just relaxed and made filet mignon for dinner. See my post on that. It was delish and Jarr was impressed and so happy to have a home cooked meal. Monday-Jarrod had school, so while I waited for him took my younger brother Brenton grocery shopping and then off to pick Jarr up for his coumadin appt. After that we had lunch at Wallabys...smoked bbq, delish. We then headed off to the zoo to see the lights. We met AJ, Chelli, and the kiddos there. We had a blast and it is always fun when we get the chance to get to know each other better. Well lots more talking then I had planned, but oh well. Enjoy the pics, cuz i know i enjoyed the time off.
Until next time...ENJOY!!!
