Conference Weekend

Spencer planned a last minute,  mini get-a-way to Salt Lake last weekend.  Spencer got discount ski passes to Alta from a guy he teaches at work. So he took work off Saturday and we made a weekend out of it. 
                     
 We started Friday night doing a session at the Salt Lake Temple.  Cassie and Bryce joined us for that. We got to meet 2 great couples from Haiti that were in our same session.  They came here for conference.  It was really neat to talk to them.  I miss the great people from Haiti!

Then we spent the night at the Sheraton in downtown Salt Lake and went skiing for the day.  Neither Spence and I had been skiing for a few years.  I was a little nervous to go to Alta because I had never been there.  We both agreed that skiing is kind of a hassle to get everything read to go...but once you are on the slops it is so fun! We both forgot  what we were missing out on!  We had so much fun!! 
 Eating lunch at the resort. 
It was such a pretty warm day.


Later Saturday night when Spencer went to the Priesthood session with his Dad and brothers...I went to the new City Creek downtown and met up with my good friend Mia and her family!

We both got SO sunburned from skiing.  Spencer had his hat on backwards while we skied so it would  not blow off from the wind...look at his sweet sunburn line :)  It was totally worth it though!    I loved listening to conference.   It was just what I needed.  I am so grateful for the gospel and for a living prophet!   Sunday night we went to Russ and MaryAnn's for dinner and a little Easter party. 
 Great way to end a great weekend!
