Salt Lake City - Here we come!

This weekend, me, Dave, Ty, and Trish went down to the SLC. We decided that it was our weekend to just have fun since the idiots that are still in school just finished with finals! (Haha, sucks for them!) I also needed a break because I got my wisdom teeth out earlier this month and worked all week. So we all needed a fun getaway!
We went to Rodizio's for lunch on Saturday.

I have decided that it is the best restaurant in the world. For those that have never been there, it is all-you-can-eat meat. There is a small salad bar, but you learn not to waste your time there. They give you a little wood thing that has a green side and a red side that tells the meat servers if you want some more. They come to your table and slice pieces off of tons of different kinds of meat with different seasonings. It is so good!

I would have to say the best thing there though is the roasted pineapple. It doesn't sound good at first but it is soooooooooo good! I couldn't stop eating it!

We also got some really cool drinks. Ty & Trish got strawberry-mango fruit juice and Dave & I got raspberry-coconut fruit juice. It sounds kinda weird but it was really good.

Trish & I couldn't keep up with the boys, but we sure did try.

Dave & Ty eventually had their fill of meat. I thought we were gonna have to roll them out of there on stretchers. But, they got up the energy to walk out on their own (barely).
We decided to walk off all the food by walking the 6 blocks from our hotel to Temple Square to see the lights. I loved seeing all the different nativity scenes from all of the different countries.

Of course, our favorite was the African nativity scene.

This was my favorite view of the temple with the lights. They were beautiful, as always, and it was fun to see them again.

Back on the Mountain

Last Monday, Dave got to go snowboarding at Pomerelle. He was so excited to finally be back rippin it up on the snow. He went with Ty (of course) and they had a blast.

Here is Ty takin the jump. That is some sweet air!


Here is Dave takin the jump too. I have respect for them for this because I dunno if I could ever take a jump and not fall flat on my face.


He has such nice form! Looks like a pro!


This is such a beautiful pose, I couldn't help but show everyone. I keep tellin him he needs to go down the mountain like that. He could attract lots of ladies! :)
