Nice weekend...

Kesler is going on a mission!!! It was great to be on the webcam with the family when Kes opened his papers. We are so proud of him! He will be serving in the Billings Montana mission! I think it will be wonderful and I am so excited. I don't know if it will be the case, but the family was talking a lot about serving on Native American Nation Reservations. My grandparents loved working on the Navajo Reservations on their mission to New Mexico. What a wonderful opportunity.

Yesterday Skyler treated me to a nice dinner. We went to a restaurant called The Carriage House. We pass it everyday on the way to the law school and I have always raved about the building style, but just recently I realized it was a restaurant, not a bed and breakfast. We went because I was craving fancy bread and butter. Which of course isn't hard to find...but we wanted to try a new place. It far exceeded our expectations (including the price... whoops) but it was AMAZING! Skyler ordered the lamb and I ordered the duck. They were both delicious! The atmosphere was wonderful and exactly what I had hoped. It has a rustic feel and it the design is how I have always imagined my dream kitchen.

This is the duck dish that I had.

This is the restaurant. Don't be fooled...it is still winter in Ithaca. We woke to a fresh 6 inches of snow on Friday. This is just a pic from their website.

We spent today at the temple. We had a bit of a fun trip getting there. We let Jill, our GPS guide, take us there. Well, she was wrong. According to her, Temple Rd doesn't exist (it is new) and therefore she took us to the next closest thing, in one township over called Shortsville. Luckily, I am smarter than I look and I am pretty good with directions, so I told Skyler that I was right all along (in a nice way...because we were having quite a bit of fun trying to test our skills against hers) and we made our way to the temple to babysit for our fellow branch members before it was our turn to go.

The rest of our weekend we have done pretty much the same thing as usual...enjoyed time together while avoiding homework and then sitting across the table from each other while writing and reading as homework always wins in the end.

P.S. Only 7 weeks until I graduate!
