(This was written last week, I just never got around to posting it. Oops!)
This weekend was a good, busy weekend. Lots of fun things happening!
Friday
Friday evening I did the electric run!! It was a super fun 5k at down
at Thanksgiving Point. They do it at night and everyone wears glow sticks,
neon, and fun glow in the dark things. We had a team called Girls on Fire so
Jane, Marissa, and I made shirts that each had a word on them. We’re so crafty!

I have been strangely ill and haven’t run in ages upon ages. Jane and
Marissa were nice enough to walk the 5k with me instead of running. The whole
race was pretty great. They had lots of fun lighted things and glow in the dark
things. It was a very low key race with runners and walkers and people just
having fun.
By far though, the best part was running into the folks from ABC’s The
Bachelor!!!!!! Earlier that day, I had found out that Juan Pablo would be
filming one of his dates at the race so we were on the lookout for them the
entire time. Luckily enough, we actually
found them!!! We were just walking along and saw a couple golf carts with
people with cameras. We asked them if they were from ABC but they wouldn’t say
anything. Then we looked ahead and saw a big crowd of people with a camera
aimed at them. The only time we ran during the whole race was to catch up with
JP. We stuck with them for a little bit and at one point Juan Pablo may or may
not have actually stepped on me. I’m totally going to be on TV. Get excited!

After we got our fill of JP, we carried on a finished the race. At the
end they had a stage and a DJ, people were dancing and such. We stuck around
for a little bit, got our rave on, took some photos, then headed home. It was
such a fun race and if I hadn’t have been sick it would’ve been fun to stay
around and hang out. Definitely going to do it again next year!
Saturday
Saturday morning I had a Junior League field trip! Have I mentioned
that I’m joining the Junior League?! I’m quite excited about it-I’ve been wanting
to join for years but when I was living in NYC I didn’t have the time. Now I
have all kinds of time so Junior League here I come! Saturday morning we met
and went on a tour of past Junior League projects. It was really cool to see
what they have been involved in in the past and what am impact they’ve made.
Saturday night Jane and I hosted our own Diner en Blanc. Diner en Blanc
is this fabulous event hosted in cities around the world. I have never been to
an official Diner en Blanc but last year some people held one in SLC. When we
found out they weren’t having one this year, we decided to have our own mini
dinner party version. It was a lot of fun. We had great company and delicious
food, and the weather was perfect for sitting out on the porch!

Sunday
Sunday was a normal Sunday. Sleeping in. Church. Made delicious spicy
tostadas for dinner. Home teachers. Baking.
Up Ahead
This week should be a good one-and for once it’s actually not crazy
busy! Some hot yoga, quilting time with Caroline, and Lara’s in town!

So funny that you saw The Bachelor! And I'm too lazy to do a separate comment, but I had my first pro table massage and has the exact same thought--how can I make tons of money and make this woman my personal masseuse?!
