This weekend has been amazing! It's been full of stress, talking, fun, cuddling, hard times and good times.Friday, we had quite the adventure! We set out on a mystery date (meaning, i had no idea where we were going, but Adam had a plan) And where should we turn up? The aquarium of course!
I didn't know until afterwards that Adam had never been to an aquarium before. I guess living in Seattle, where there is an aquarium so close, and my mom took me all the time when we were little, I just assumed that everyone had been to an aquarium at least ONCE. But I was surprised! It was really cool though. We got to walk around and see the animals native to utah (like all the different kinds of frogs, and did you know that bullfrogs are HUGE???) and then we got to go through this discover africa or something section. We saw a small crocodile, an electric eel, piranhas, and an anaconda! Did you know that Anacondas never stop growing? And, when Roosevelt was president, he put a $10,000 reward to anyone who could find an anaconda larger than 30 feet? Its raised now! Apparently, you'd get $50,000 if you could find an anaconda larger than 30 feet. Well you see, I spotted the flaw in this program. It's not finding the anaconda. It would be bringing the anaconda in. I don't know about you... but trying to capture a snake longer than 30 feet that could kill you... doesnt sound too fun or easy to me.Oh! there was this petting zoo part and we got to touch sting rays! It was really cool, except for the fact that I was afraid that I was going to get stung. They felt really strange too.
After our adventure at the aquarium, we went to the cheesecake factory! We got seated outside only to barely get our food, have rain start POURING down on us, get shoved back inside in some random corner of the restaurant and watch the rain, wind and lightning right where we were sitting just a couple minutes before. Crazy. But the food there is still good.
Saturday morning I got up really early and went to North Orem to take my NASM Personal Training Certification test. It was crazy hard! I was so nervous to take the test, my heart felt like it was pounding out of my chest, and I thought that I was going to be sick. But luckily, I wasn't sick, and I passed my test! I am now a certified personal trainer :)
After that, I came home, and Adam and I made some Cinnamon bun popcorn and a bean dip for my sister-in-laws birthday party. We had my family come over, we watched the movie Up! and we made our own bottle cap pins and filled out our own adventure book. It was very clever and quite fun :) Thanks to Jameson for the planning! And happy birthday Becky! (on Monday)
Well church will be starting very soon, and I am playing the piano in relief society so I should probably get dressed now...
