Spencer and I decided to go to Utah for the weekend! He had a mission reunion and we missed our families. We had the best time! But first... I have an announcement to make... I chopped off 10 inches of my hair and dyed it super dark....
I just needed a change! It had been about the same for the past five years. It's a little darker than I wanted, so when my roots grow in, I'll lighten it.
But, anyway... back to our awesome weekend! So, Friday we drove down to Provo and saw Jamesy's (my lil bro) new apartment. He just started at BYU this fall. After that we went to Spencer's mission reunion. AND THEN.... I went to my first BYU football game with Megan (Spencer's sister) and Spencer's dad.
It was freezing but we had so much fun!
Saturday, we got to watch general conference, which made the weekend great all by itself. We went to Megan's volleyball game. My family came down to the Hooker's house in Draper for dinner.(cafe rio style chicken salads. YUUUUMMMY!) When the boys went to priesthood session, the girls got to hang. I love my new sister-in-laws so much! We decorated a bunch of little pumpkins.
Okay, now here's the cute part:
After priesthood session, Spencer and I kinda recreated our first date.
Last year at this time I was living in in Tucson, Arizona. Last minute, on the friday before conference I decided to drive up to Utah with some friends from AZ. They were going to conference and I was determined to surprise my family. I had been texting Spencer since he got home from his mission in August and I told him I was on my way to Utah. He asked me out on the spot! I told him I'd only be in Utah for less than 24 hours and that night was priesthood session.... but it was meant to be so it all worked out. Anyway, he drove up to Draper and went to the corn maze in Syracuse.
So... after priesthood session, we drove back up to Syracuse and went to our corn maze :)
We spent all of Sunday with my parents and we were soooo tired from our long weekend, that we might have kinda sorta fallen asleep at the very end of conference...
Sunday night we drove back up to Rexburg listening to Micheal Buble's Christmas album. :) Perfect weekend.
