Priesthood/Post Priesthood Session

During the Priesthood session, I got together with the girls, and we made an apple pie.  When the boys were done, we tried a place called "Backyard Tacos," and then ate the apple pie



Arizona Science Museum

On Friday, we went with Brad and Courtney to the AZ Science Museum.  From 5 to 9 it was free, and adults-only.  Afterwards, we got tres leches from Cafe Rio, and played "Just Dance."

Relief Society General Conference

Last weekend was the RS General Conference, and we decided to make a night of it.  Malorie, Emily, Courtney, and I all decided to go to dinner beforehand (@ Sauce), and then head to the conference.  The conference was great, and they even had dessert afterwards for us.

Ward Campout/Saager's Cabin

Last weekend, we had our ward campout.  It was SO nice to get away to the mountains and escape the heat for a couple days.  I think it actually got down to the high 40s/low 50s at night, which felt incredible.  Friday night was the campout, and then Saturday morning we headed to the Saager's cabin for the day (& spent the night there), where we watched the humiliating BYU game.

At the Saager's cabin ...
We went on a short hike, and then jumped off some rocks

 Our first jump ... it was REALLY cold
Only the boys did the next jump ... they said it was even colder than the first one

Lisa & Jace come to visit!

This past weekend, Lisa and Jace came to visit us in AZ.  Jace just got home from Guatemala a few weeks ago, so it was great to see him (after not seeing him for over 2 years).  It was a really relaxing weekend, and we pretty much just hung out.  The first day, we went went to Bahama Bucks, and Ty took them to Studio Movie Grill while I went to my concert.  Friday, we hung out by the pool, went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse, got blizzards, and watched Jim Gaffigan.  



Saturday, Lisa & I went to get our nails done while Ty showed Jace the Mesa & Gilbert temples.  We also did Costco, the pool, and ended the night with pizza/BYU game and Bahama Bucks again :)
