Memorial Day in the Rain!

For this Memorial Day, Emily and I went to Salt Lake to see Temple Square. We got up really early to catch the 8:30 bus to Sandy. When we got there we decided to go to the Target and get prepared for the rainy day that we knew we would be having. I really wanted some rain boots so I got a pair of black with white polka dots, a new black jacket, a headband, and a striped umbrella. It was so much fun! We stopped for breakfast at a Starbuck's for some hot chocolate and bagels and some pretty cool music. Basically we felt very cultured and cool. Finally we rode the train the rest of the way to Salt Lake. We took some pictures in the rain and we went to visit the Beehive House. Suprisingly, I have never seen Brigham's house, it was so beautiful! We made it to see the Joseph Smith movie, which means we cried like babies. We also went to the Church History museum. After walking, talking and looking at so much stuff we certainly worked up an appetite. And to our horror, EVERYWHERE in Salt Lake was closed for the holiday. So we trucked our way back to Sandy and decided to go to Ruby River Steakhouse. I always feel that Memorial Day needs some barbecue with it. So we had the ribs and some hot wings and a deep fried potatoe (yummy!). We got home at 9:15 and were exhausted, but happy!! Overall, we had an amazing, rain filled day!!
