Saturday - what a great day!

Saturday was a lot of fun.

First, I had a baby shower to go to. It was for a young woman of our congregation/ward that is not very active so Becky Wangler and Shelby Denti wanted to have a shower for her so that more people could meet her and get to know her and hopefully have her feel more comfortable around us. There was a good turn out, but funny thing, she had her baby Thursday and it was a c-section so she wasn't even getting home from the hospital until later today.....so I think they did a brilliant thing. They video taped us all opening our own gifts to her and us telling her what we got her and congratulations etc...! And we all still got to visit and eat goodies and see what everyone gave her. I thought it was brilliant!

Second, I then rushed home so that I could pick up Alan and Aileen and we all headed to the Oliver Garden restaurant so that we could be at a surprise birthday party for David Ukle! He turned 50 this year and according to his wife has never had a birthday party.....so it was really nice to get to be apart of this one!!

Third, Alan then had to rush home and change to a suit to go up to Stake Leadership Meetings at 4:30pm and then Aileen and I met him at 7:00 pm for the Adult meeting of our Stake Conference. It was a good evening with good talks and messages.

Fourth, we hurried home to watch BYU trample over New Mexico State and see our son-in-law on TV on the sidelines doing his athletic trainer thing - awesome!

Finally, you add that I got to talk to both of my girls that live far away and you know..........

It was a great day!
