cassie visits utah

This past week, Zach and I got to have a visitor come + stay with us for a few days! It was awesome. Cassie Demsher and I have been friends since my senior year of high school. We met during Hairspray! and I am so very grateful to have her as my friend. Cassie got baptized a few weeks ago so it was extra cool for her to come out and see the Beehive state (A.K.A. the motherland)! The first day, my cousin Andrew + I picked up Cass from the airport and ate a nice hearty breakfast at Cracker Barrel! We spent the day hanging out with cousins in Salt Lake. Tuesday we took a nice long tour of BYU campus and did a bit of shopping. That night we went to the Real Salt Lake V.S. Seattle Sounders soccer game at Rio Tinto! It was such a great game! The next day consisted of IKEA, the Puppy Barn, movies and pizza. Thursday, we were sad to see Cassie off but had a wonderful day in SLC at Temple Square, City Creek + Shave Ice! It was so fun to have Cassie come and stay with us. We are excited to have her come back to stay on our air mattress in our living room soon.

 ^^ The day we toured BYU we ate at one of my favorite spots, the MOA cafe. There was this really pretty string art display and it was absolutely beautiful! ^^

 ^^ Pics from the RSL game. It was so, sooo fun and we had great neighbors, some great laughs + a great time! ^^

 ^^ Thursday was jam packed with temple baptisms at the Provo temple, shopping at city creek + exploring Temple square! We also had yummy Hokulia shaved ice as shown below!
