Fun Adventures with my Mom

What an exciting week.  My mom came to visit for Labor Day weekend!  She flew into town on Thursday and we had a whirlwind of a trip planned (which included lots of food stops)!  Thursday night we took her to Jack's Stack BBQ and ordered enough food for an army.  On Friday, we went to the Temple and then headed to Adam-Ondi-Ahman.  It was supposed to be a nice cool day, but instead we got a heat wave.  It was a nice and steady 95!  We had a picnic style lunch and then walked around.  What else are you supposed to do there?  Then we headed to Haun's Mill, Far West, and Richmond.  It was nice to see all the Church history sites again.  For dinner, we went to Unforked which is a local burger joint.  On Saturday, we went to the Santa Cali Gon days festival.  It was probably 100 degrees.  We had prepared just a little better and brought a lot more water!  It was still really hot and humid.  Since the festival was in Independence, we also stopped at the Church of the Temple Lot (which I have been wanting to see forever) and then went to the Church of Christ temple as well.  For dinner, we hit up our favorite Mexican joint, Dos Reales!  Sunday was a nice church day and then we went to Liberty to visit the Historic Jail.  It was a nice relaxing day.  Did I mention that we had good food?  In case I didn't, we did!!  I know that there are no pictures for this post, but as I soon as I get them from my mom, I will update this blog so everyone can enjoy.
