Divine

Late this afternoon the kids and I met up at Temple Square with my sister-in-law Jolie, her husband Tim and most of their kids, all visiting from Pennsylvania. Also with them were Alisha, Zeb, and their cute girls, visiting from Idaho. We took a quick walk around the grounds, saw the newly remodeled Tabernacle and checked out the children's area in the museum. All the kids were very cute; you'll just have to take my word for it though, since Chris has our camera in NYC.

Jolie was teasing me about needing to take pictures for my blog. Little did she know that I spent the afternoon trying to come up with a plan to be able to come home with some photos: borrow a friends camera? take my own memory card and get some photos off Jolie's camera? go buy a new camera? I actually am planning on getting a new one soon, but we are still in the research phase, and Chris thinks he found a good place out there to get one (hopefully not from some guy in the street).

Had I brought my camera, I would have been sure to get shots of Michael sitting IN the reflecting pool (oops) and all the kids in costume, acting out the Nativity story. You'll have to wait to see the photos until Jolie starts her own blog, which she assured me she is already working on!

After Temple Square we had a chaotic, yummy dinner at Cafe Rio. Because, what would a trip to Utah be without eating at "Everyone's Favorite Restaurant"? Thanks for a great night, you guys!

  1. Sounds like an adventure! I'm drooling over your mention of Cafe Rio. It's first on our agenda on our pass through Utah to my family reunion in Idaho next week!

    You'll have to let me know what you decide on the camera. We're in the market for a new one, but the research of it is overwhelming to me.

  3. Ok, I added a link to the Cafe Rio website. Enter the site and click on "TV commercial" for a tiny glimpse at what you're missing out on.
