Life Lately

Life has been so crazy lately. I feel like we are in a movie that's playing in fast forward. Moments are passing by so quickly, we can barely keep up with everything. With us both working and going to school, I feel like there are days where we barley even see each other. All I can say is I am literally counting the days when we are both done with our finals and can at least eat dinner together.  Here's our week at a glimpse...

Monday: The Duffys had 2 extra tickets to the Jazz game. It was the last game of the season against the Lakers, plus the seats were on row 17.... how could you pass up an offer like that?! Although the Jazz lost, we still had a blast! I caught a little basketball and we saw Phil from Modern Family. They showed him on the big screen, so we were determined to find him in the arena. After 10 minutes of playing "Where's Phil", Melissa spotted him. Our life was complete. After the game, we ate at one of our favorite pizza restaurants, The Pie. Of course, it was delicious. 

                                   Do you see him?

Tuesday: Since I'm now in young women's, I get to attend the weekly activity each week. This week we went to the Timpanogos Temple and did baptisms for the dead. Afterwards we had pizza (third time this week!) at a park. It's so fun getting to know the girls. We have such an amazing ward. 

Wednesday: We got a bulldog!!! Her name is Lucy and she is from Columbia. She is the sweetest dog you'll ever meet. Bruno loves her, which is a good thing, because they are eventually going to have puppies together :) She is the same size as Bruno (about 11 inches tall) and they are already best buds. It's really cute!

Thursday: Chad got my bike up and running, so naturally, we had to test it out. We went on a little bike ride around the neighborhood. To say I love it would be an understatement. I am obsessed with it! It is an awesome bike that will last a long time. 

Thursday: Chads work has an intermural softball team that he plays on each week. They played two games, back-to-back. It was a chilly night on the field, but it was fun cheering their team on!

It's been a great week, but I can't explain how excited I am for the weekend. Let the Easter festivities begin!

Vampire Weekend

Chad's brother, Brett, gave us two tickets to the Vampire Weekend concert Tuesday night at the Red Butte Gardens up in Salt Lake City. It was probably the best concert I have been too. They were so good live! I love going to outdoor concerts. I am so excited for summer to come so we can go to more.

After the concert, we went to one of our favorite restaurants, The Pie. It was delicious, just like always. It was such a fun night together! It's always fun to go on dates in the middle of the week :)

We got there later than most people, so we didn't have the best seats, but it was still SO fun!

The Pie

We had such a fun date night with the Duffy's on Friday night. They picked us up after work and we headed up to The Pie in Sandy. It was super busy (like always), but it's definitely worth the wait. Their pizza is AMAZING! If you haven't tried it, you need to! It's that good!

After pizza, we decided to go up to City Creek Center in SLC. The guys dropped Melissa and I off at H&M. I love shopping, but surprisingly, neither of us had any luck, so we didn't stay long. We decided to ditch the mall and go get some gelato. There is a little restaurant that sells the best gelato I've ever had. I usually prefer ice cream over gelato, but this restaurant almost made me change my mind.

On our way home we stopped at a Red Box and picked up "Red Dawn" and headed back to our house. Of course, I slept through the entire movie. I have the hardest time staying awake during movies (especially when it's 1 am). So I can't give my opinion on the movie, but I'm sure it's good since it was Chad's 3rd time seeing it!

Since I got a good 2 hour nap in, I was wide awake until 4 am. I haven't stayed awake that late in a long time! Chad and I decided to catch up on one of our favorite TV shows, Family Feud. It was a great night :)

Temple Square

Since Christmas is just around the corner, we decided to head up to Salt Lake to check out the lights on Temple Square.

We stopped at The Pie Pizzeria in South Jordan for dinner. We sat by the fire and enjoyed live music from a local musician while we devoured our pizza.... which was amazing :)

It was a chilly night! We got our cup of cocoa and weaved through the crowds of people to see the lights at Temple Square. There were so many people there that we didn't stay long. We eventually made our way to the City Creek mall and did some shopping... my favorite!

My parents took Sean and some friends to the cabin for his birthday. Chad and I are staying at their house to watch Ruger (the family dog). It has been a great night, I always love date night :)
