Good Weekend!

Well this weekend we went to see Jaimie take out her endowments in the Mesa temple.  It was great!  And there were a lot of people there!  Afterwards her family took Kristen and I out to sweet-cakes which is a little restaurant right by the temple!  The food was pretty good but Kristen quickly got sick of the buffalo chicken sandwich she was eating because of the spicy mayo.  And she doesn't really like mayo anyways so who can blame her!

We went and did some quick shopping for picture frames and other odds and ends we needed around the apartment.  It was a good time though!  Then we came home and moved some things around and cleaned(well Kristen cleaned as I had fallen asleep on the couch watching mighty ducks!  We were preparing for our date with Jaimie which didn't actually happen :p

Then we went to get some mexican food, and invited Sether (Seth and Heather) over for Nintendo and a movie.  We watched Princess Bride!  :)  Classic!

Sunday we went to two primary programs instead of  our home ward.  Both programs were great and since each used practically the same songs they are now all stuck in our heads.  The funniest thing was that in the 2nd program there was a little red headed girl who was getting way into the songs!  And when Kaitlynn and her partner went up to sing their solo of Follow the Prophet...Kaitlynn's partner hummed along with the piano in anticipation of her part.  HILARIOUS!!!!

Then we ended the night with mexican sonoran style hotdogs at my folks place!  Good weekend and now it's back to the books and work!

The Garden of Steven(not Eden)

So about 3 weeks ago I mentioned to Kristen that if it wasn't gonna be too much work, I would like to start up a little garden out on our nice patio.  It usually has shade and we don't have anything out there so it seemed like the perfect spot for a nice little garden.  I talked to my mother about it and asked her what advice she had.  She told me to go down to one of the garden nursery's and talk to someone about what would be the best to plant at this time of year and get specific instructions from them!

So that is exactly what I did!  And the result: 3 pots, bagonias, dianthus, irish moss, basil, and mint as well as a myriad of beautiful flowers!  So check out the pics and be jealous!
