We're in UT.



On his best behavior at The Copper Onion. We really liked that place.

We're in Salt Lake City. Mike had a client meeting today, & since he's frequently gone + since we have lots of excuses to come - 2 sisters (me), 2 brothers (Mike) & lots of friends (us) - we decided to make a long weekend out of it. The air here! It smells like fall, & I really, really love that. The leaves in the valley are still bright (& beautiful!) & the mountains have snow on them.  I give Utah a hard time sometimes, but I really do like it here & it's fun to visit. 

I had Cafe Rio for lunch today, & it reminded me of taking my Kaplan LSAT prep class with Mike our senior year at BYU (I ended up never applying to law school - I'm sure this says many, many things about me). We'd always eat there after our class & I frequently ate THE ENTIRE BURRITO. This explains the extra 15 pounds I had no problem carrying around. Happy (sad) times. 

(Today I ate 1/4th of the burrito, Q ate the other 1/4th & I donated the remaining half to my sister's fridge for leftovers.)

This weekend! I want to go to Park City, make a trip up to Sundance, & rub my pretty sister's pregnant bellies (because I have two pregnant sisters!). I want to eat yummy food, see sweet friends & buy some sort of BYU paraphernalia. And get my haircut (tomorrow)! A happy weekend.

how fun! I didn't know you guys were here! Have fun enjoying all the company and fun things. I would say we should get together, but I know how it is when you are only in town for such a quick time! And how come you know of so many yummy places to eat that I have never heard of? Keep posting about them so I have a list of places to visit!

I love Utah. We were there last month & everyone told us to go to The Copper Onion but we didn't get a chance! Maybe next time.

i just love you, k. this post gave me warm fuzzies for no other reason except that you sound happy. i also never ended up applying to law school. i think what this says about us is that we are smart. also, quinn's toothy little smile kills me.

Oh Utah. I would LOVE to go back. We don't really have a reason to go. But, I am constantly telling Devin that I want to go visit our alma mater:)
