November 19-21... Don't you want to know what I did?!

We got to fly down to Utah to see my sister Kate as the lead role in her high school play South Pacific. We arrived in Salt Lake on Friday the 19th, Jason's parents drove down from Montana and picked us up from the airport at around 4ish. We drove down to J-Dawgs and had dinner, then hurried to the play. She was soooo good! I was very impressed. It was really weird seeing Kate looking like an adult, and especially weird seeing her kiss a boy!!! It was really weird, I had to cover my eyes!

The next day was going to be BUSY, so we went to bed around 10 or 11 in order to get up in the morning. We woke up and got ready for the day. Jason and I ran down to Provo bakery and got smiley face sugar cookies and some doughnuts, then headed over to my parents house for breakfast. After breakfast Jason and his parents went out to lunch with Denny's cousin. I spent that time helping prepare for the baby shower. I made cream cheese frosting for the red velvet cupcakes, YUM!
Frosting the cupcakes.

At around 3 people started showing up. I had such a great time! I really loved getting to see and spend time with friends and family. I had so much fun! I completely forgot to take pictures, luckily Janna took a couple before the shower while we were getting ready. Everyone was so generous and the baby got so many things we weren't able to fit everything our giant suitcase! There was nothing in the suitcase but baby things (mostly clothes)! Luckily we are going to be able to drive down to Utah for Christmas so we will be able to pick the rest up.

After the shower I got to open my birthday present (my mom didn't want to mail it so I had to wait until we went to Utah to open it)

My diploma! All framed and pretty!

Even though the shower was over, the party kept going until later in the evening. My cousin even showed up with pregnancy massage cushions from her massage school and I got a massage! It was so nice! Those cushions are so comfortable!!!!

After all the partying was done, it was time to go to sleep and from the time we woke up the next morning until we had to leave for the airport, I spent my time trying to fit all of the gifts into our giant suitcase.
