Lunch with the Gov.- Link Fixed

Packsize- the company I work for- was invited to the Utah100 a few weeks ago.

The Utah100 is Utah's 100 fastest growing businesses.  This year we ranked number 42.  Earlier this summer we also attended the Fast 50.  I'm not sure how they all work or what all the requirements are, I just know Packsize is AWESOME!  I have been very fortunate to be hired on with them, what great people to work with.

The lunch was held at the Grand America downtown- The Grand-ballroom was all decked out- and the food was fantastic.  This was a big event.

The House of the Lord

Cody and I had the opportunity to help clean the Salt Lake Temple last night...What a great experience.

We showed up at 9:45 pm and they put us to work until Midnight.  35 volunteers showed up to help the normal staff..  Did you know the ENTIRE TEMPLE gets at least a brief cleaning EVERY NIGHT!!!  All the floors are Vacuumed and bathrooms cleaned every night...and let me tell you...that place has A LOT of carpet.  We got to see some places we have never seen, Cody vacuumed an immaculate office he said he wants one day, with a fire place that takes up the whole wall.

We both got to vacuum in the Celestial room.  Take notice of the carpet next time you are in there...we were told to try not to leave any lines...that was way harder than I thought it would be, and Cody, being the perfectionist he is, spent a good amount of time vacuuming a small sealing room...I love him!

We had a great time serving in a way we have not before.  We both now have a much greater appreciation for the details of the Temple, now having helped dust and vacuum every square inch.  We also appreciate the cleaning staff.  They stayed to finished up after we left at midnight.

After we were all done, our whole group was escorted through a tunnel that leads to the parking garage...

The Church is SO COOL... and it's SO TRUE! 

Date Night

I talked Cody into going Miniature Golfing for our Date night this weekend.  We had a blast!

I'm better at taking self portraits than Cody :)

Cody won by ten..But I did get a hole in one on the last hole :)

Summer is Over :(

It's probably a good thing summer is over for all you who are sick of the Delta posts.  

We finished strong!  We got one more quick trip to Delta over the Labor Day Holiday.  And we took our friends Tonya and Jason with us.

This trip was a tad bit chilly... we wore wet suits in the morning and got VERY good use of the hot tub this weekend...But at least we all got one last good run in.

New Summer Toy

The new toy of the summer is the Wake Surf.

We had fun this summer learning to surf.

We have not figured out how to surf with out the rope yet.  We don't think the boat has a big enough wake... any suggestion, let us know, we are determined to really "Surf" next year :)
