A Day With Jen

I was lucky to spend almost all Friday with my best friend Jen. When Jen and I get together it is usually to scrapbook. So this might come as a shock to some of you, we did not do any scrapbooking at all on Friday. The day started off with me going to work from 7-11 and then coming home to eat lunch and get ready for the rest of the day. Jen picked me up at about 1 and our first destination was the Oquirrh Mountain Temple open house, which is located in the Jordan area. The temple was absolutely beautiful! Jen and I helped a woman through the open hose who was by herself with her 2 year old daughter and her 6 week old daughter. Both the little girls did really well until the end of the tour, so I was able to enjoy myself. After we got through the temple they had refreshments and I got 2 cookies because there was a shift change while we were there, they were good cookies. I have been so blessed to have been able to attend 2 temple open houses in the last year.


After the open house we went to Sarah’s house, a friend of Jen, to babysit her 15month old twin boys Nathan and Kyle. The boys were so cute and surprisingly well behaved. They didn’t cry at all when their parents left. The only time there was crying was when Jen took her cell phone away from Kyle. I had a lot of fun playing with the boys; it isn’t often that I get to play with little children seeing as how I live in a single student ward and all. It was nice to get my “baby fix” on Friday and Saturday when I helped my roommate while she was watching 4 month old Alex.


Anyway, after babysitting we went to a wedding pre-party for one of Jen’s friends. I didn’t know anyone there but the food was free and fairly good, but the cupcakes were AMAZING! After the party we headed back to Provo and I didn’t get home until 10pm. So it was a very long day for me which made it even harder to get up at 5:40 the next morning to go to the airport.


Thanks Jen for letting me spend a wonderful day with you! And thanks for being such a wonderful friend!!!!
