A Swanky Lunch Date

Today at work, a lady that works for one of our other offices came to our area b/c her husband had a doctor’s appointment.  I have never met her before, but we have talked on the phone and emailed back and forth a lot and it was nice to finally put a face with a name.  One of my bosses took me & Tracy & her husband out to lunch to Maggiano’s.  This is what the outside of the restaurant looked like!  It was so nice and fancy, and their food was just the same.  I ordered some chicken fettuccini and couldn’t even finish 1/3 of it b/c the portion was so huge.  I am going to have enough left over to feed Nick & Autumn & I.  It was nice to get to leave the office and just sit and talk w/ Tracy.

When Autumn & I got to Mom & Dad’s house, Dad was outside swimming in the pool so Autumn jumped in with him.  Mom had made chicken and wild rice casserole for dinner and Autumn thought she & Papa were hot stuff b/c they got to eat theirs outside.  I just noticed in this picture that it looks like Autumn is stepping on Emma’s back!  Maybe that’s why she’s got such a mischievous look on her face.  Mom & Dad were wonderful and watched her for me while I went to the stake center for the bi-monthly Single Adults meeting.  But, Pres. Jones forgot we were having it b/c his daughter is getting married on Friday and they have tons of family in town and were busy w/ wedding preparations.  So, Sis. Farmer and Pete and I just talked for a little bit about the next big Single Adult activities that are coming up and called that good.

Since I was only gone for 30 minutes, I went back and watched some TV w/ Mom & Autumn and then Autumn and I came home so she could go to bed.  I stayed up and worked on my Project Life and got all the journaling cards caught up.  I finally went to bed at midnight when Autumn woke up crying and wondering where I was.
