Weekend Update

Our weekend was busy like usual. It started with a trip to the NPS store inSalt Lake where they sell almost expired products and slightly damaged stuff. The prices are ridiculously low. Some items are in great shape, but stores wont sell them. So, they end up at NPS instead. If you see on the news that a truckload of cereal overtuned on the freeway, chances are that cereal will be on sale there the next day. It is the perfect store for poor people, immigrants and people who want to stock up some food storage items. It is on California Ave. I'll take you some time.
Then....
We headed to a quick little Hermana reunion. I don't really know the first sister on the left, but I served with or around the others. We met at a Venezuelan eatery. I was excited for Tyler to taste a bit of my mission food, but he hated everything. I couldn't believe it. I ate everything. It was neat that the flavors brought back memories. My favorite thing to eat in Venezuela was a Cachapa or a big, sweet corn pancake with really salty cheese on top. It was like candy! Yummy!
After lunch we went up to Brigham City to spend the evening at the Matheson's, but ended up spending the night instead after this 31-car pileup closed I-15 in both directions.

Rachel's hair is finally long enough to curl. Sort of....

We went to Temple Square to look at the lights with the Lloyds tonight:

Rachel had a good time, especially riding on Grandpa's head. (Yes, that is a scarf around her head and yes those are socks on her hands. We realize that she looks like a hobo, but we forgot her gloves and hat at home)
