Witches Night Out!!!

Last Friday us girls got together and went to "Witches Night Out" at Gardner Village. It was so fun being together and being so festive! We had planned on eating at the restaurant there but had no idea there'd be a 4 hour wait! So we ditched the fun village and headed to another restaurant. We were all starving and everywhere was packed, so we ended up settling for Chili's. It was just fun being together and chatting. Priscila and I got plenty of looks with our tights at Chili's. I couldn't believe the turn out at Gardner Village. I had no idea that many crazy ladies would be there. It's a really fun atmosphere though and everyone should go! I wanted to dance the night away to the music but my stomach thought otherwise. Maybe next year eating first and then hitting up the crazy village!

HaPpY BiRtHdAy To Me!

So last Tuesday was my big 23rd Birthday. Thanks to my family it lasted a whole week! It started when my mom and Dennis flew in from St.George on Friday the 28th to take me to dinner and shopping. We got together with Mitch and Janna for dinner Friday night and then my mom made me the best birthday cake ever, molten chocolate! Saturday my mom and I went to Old Navy and got some great clothes. (I love cheap clothes!) Sadly they had to leave Saturday but it was so good to spend time with them. Thanks Mom and Dennis!
Then on my birthday I unfortunately had to work all day. :( But after work Nate and I went to Market Street for dinner then to Cold Stone for ice cream, my favorite. I just relaxed the rest of the night with a great back rub from my loving husband. Nate got me a ticket to go see Celine Dion with my friends in December, yahoo! Throughout the day I received so many calls and texts from friends and family saying "Happy Birthday". Thank you everyone for thinking of me, it really meant a lot. Everyone always loves the good ol' singing birthday message!
My birthday was then continued this last weekend over conference with Nate's family. We went to their home in Eden to kick back and watch conference. I always love spending time up there with my cute nieces! I think I gained 10lbs from all the food we ate though. We ate some great cobbler in celebration of my birthday and I got some really yummy perfume!
I just want to say thanks to everyone for making my birthday so great! I'm so lucky to have such great friends and family! Love you all...

Nebraska!

Nate and I took a trip back to Nebraska along with Mitch and Janna to visit family. We had so much fun just hanging out with everyone and enjoying family company. We went to my sister's volleyball game one night and a University game another night. It was so fun to see Paige in action! I could never do what she does! Thanks to my aunts and uncles, Nate and I were able to go watch UNL's girls volleyball team play. They are an amazing team! I would have never thought Nate and I could have so much fun at volleyball game. We thought the girls would be tall but we underestimated them. A lot of them were around 6'5 and when you get girls that tall together it's a little weird. I felt incredibly small! Just check out the picts and you'll understand.

We also found time to fit in some golf of course! We went one day with my dad and another day with my grandparents. There's nothing like golfing in humidity! It really makes me appreciate the weather we have here in Utah!

It was so fun spending time with cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, parents, and siblings! Thanks everyone for such a good time. We look forward to the next time!

So this is Sarah Pavan, she was All American last year over all women's college sports. She's an amazing athlete and extremely tall! We tried to snap a picture with her.

Nate ended up getting one. Don't they make a stunning couple!
