This weekend was jam packed; it felt like we just kept running from one event to another! It was super fun though! We really enjoyed our fall break on Friday. It was so nice to sleep in and not worry about getting up for early classes. Cody worked during the day, while Camille stayed home cleaning and relaxing. That evening we went to the temple with a group of other couples...some old friends and some new ones too:) It's so nice to have a temple nearby. That's something we really missed while in Virginia. Afterwards, everyone came back to our place for ice cream, candy, and Cody's new specialty...7-up martinis:) We played some games and got to know everyone better. It was a total blast. The next day, Cody woke up super early to make it down to Salt Lake City for a practice DAT exam. It was hard, but good practice for the real thing! Camille spent the morning shopping for bridal showers...she had one at 12 and another at 1. I guess it's the season for more weddings:) She only got to spend about a half hour or so at each one because she had a dinner date with work friends form the summer down in SLC at 3:30. So after racing down to Grandma VO's to meet Cody, we got all dolled up for the evening and headed to Rodizio's Grill. This was the first time we had eaten there, and we loved it! It's all you can eat Brazilian food...mmmmm. They have an amazing salad bar with just about everything, and then they come around with every kind of meat you can think of lined up on these huge skuors and slide off however much you want onto your plate. It was so good and so filling! After dinner we went to Cody's company banquet for his summer job. It was a blast! We played the price is right and they gave out tons of prizes. We didn't win anything, but we did get free T-shirts and $11! Wahoo:) The only thing we didn't like about it, was it seemed like the theme of the night was money. They had money cannons and emphasized what all the top dawgs made that summer. It's a good job to make some dough, but definitely something we only want to do for a few summers to get us by. That didn't get out 'til 10 p.m. so we decided to stay at Mamma and Papa Moon's for the night to avoid any black ice...it rained and snowed through the entire banquet! We headed back to Logan the next morning and enjoyed Ward Conference in the afternoon. It was nice to meet our Stake Presidency...I actually think Lester Essig's brother is one of our counselors. His last name is Essig and they look and act so much alike! It was kind of crazy. Well after church, we headed to our friends, Chris and Lyndsey's house for dinner. They went all out! It felt like a traditional Sunday dinner....mashed potatoes, courd an bleu, corn, green salad, and rolls. It's not very often we get to eat like that;) We also played this newly wed game where you see how well you know your spouse. It was cool...we didn't win but it was only by a couple points! Now we're back home enjoying our evening and catching up on everyone's blogs and emails. It's good to hear what everyone's doing! We love you guys! Have an awesome week.
