This morning I went on a walk and took a picture I’ve been dying to get since we got to Orem. It’s a view of the Orem Temple from the hill heading down to Walmart. I know it’s not a perfect photo, but I just love this view.
I also spent time working on our budget. We’re trying to figure out a good financial situation for the kids. They are long overdue for having a bit more autonomy. So in the afternoon I took them all over to Chase to open individual checking accounts for them. They were all in a goofy mood, and the whole experience was pretty hilarious. I love these kids.
Betty finished another juice cleanse today. She had gone 21 days on these super-juices that she makes, and she’s been feeling great, but she’s happy to be eating solid food again.
In the evening, Betty and I went to dinner with Dale and Valerie. They have been our dear friends for so many years, and it’s always great to get back in touch with them. We ate at an Indian place called Tandoor, and I highly recommend it. The Tikka Masala and Coconut Korma were both outstanding. At one point, Dale told me about how much he loved his new shoes, and when he showed them to me, we laughed as we realized mine are practically identical.
The orange Hokas :)
After dinner I turned on the radio only to find that BYU had been beaten on the road by Oklahoma. I’m glad I spent it with friends instead!
And speaking of friends, our dear friend Erika came down from North Salt Lake to hang out with Betty tonight. She introduced me and Betty to each other, so I’ll be forever grateful for her, and I love to see her.
