Lots of Little Things

Today was go, go, go. Emi and I spent the morning doing dishes/laundry around the house and then headed off to My Gym. After My Gym we ran to Target to get cottage cheese for a friend in the ward. I offered to bring her a smoothie after her teeth extraction and she asked if I could grab some cottage cheese too. Hence the cottage cheese. While at Target I grabbed a Lunchable because I was starving. I always think they're better than they are.haha. I ate the Lunchable on the way to Tropical Smoothie Cafe. Then I grabbed my friend a smoothie--and of course I had to get one too! We dropped off the food items and I chatted for a bit with my friend and then back to the apartment. 

At the apartment I read through house documents and signed them after calling my mom, Marty, and my father in law to make sure some items on the documents were okay. Meanwhile Emi took a nap. Then we headed to Marty's work to have him sign a check for our Earnest money. From there, I dropped the check off and then we met Katye and Easton at the park for a walk. By the time we got home it was almost 6 pm! Time flies when you're having fun...or doing house stuff I guess. 

We had Easter leftovers for dinner tonight and Marty and I have been chilling and playing Star Realms. A good day!

Nick's Fish House

We went to the breakfast buffet at the Fairmont in the morning. My favorite part is loading my plate with all the yummy fruit they have. (Papaya and Hawaii just go together.) Emi loves clenching her fists and making a funny, strained face. haha. We took a walk down to the beach before heading to Twin Falls. It was pouring rain when we got out of the car at the start of the hike, and I wondered what the rest of the hike was going to look like, but it ended clearing up at just the right times. I love how Emi has curls in Hawaii. On our way back we stopped at some food trucks and came back to relax before dinner time. For dinner we went to Nick's Fish House. This place is special to Marty and I because it's where we got engaged (and their Macadamia Nut brownies are top notch which adds to the special-ness). In the evening we went back to our hotel room and watched an episode of "The Floor" before heading to bed.

Last day in Paris

We scheduled a tour for St. Chapelle, Conciergerie, and the outside of the Notre Dame for this morning. I mostly just wanted to see St. Chapelle, but because we've been so busy seeing other things, when I went to get tickets on their website they were sold out. Luckily I found a tour through "Get Your Guide" that we could do that would take us through the chapel this morning. Marty and I arrived for our tour this morning and started making our way to St. Chapelle as a tour group when we found out that the employees of St. Chapelle were on strike so nobody would be seeing St. Chapelle for the day. It was a bummer, but strikes are very common in Paris. Really we just lucked out getting to experience an important part of their culture ;) With our tour canceled, we made our way to Sacre Coeur and Montmartre. The basilica reminded me a lot of the pretty churches in Jerusalem. The one thing Marty and I found odd was that there were signs all over inside the chapel asking guests

Marty! Lizzie!

Emi and I went to Chuze in the morning and then went to the park after with friends! Ronny, Jules, Evi, Isla, and Emi (of course!). We tried out a new park, Spearwood, and the kids liked it. Emi and I stayed a bit longer after everyone left and she made a new friend. It was this cute Chinese boy whose name sounded kind of like "Ethan." Anyway, his mom was doing the sort of thing all moms do at the park--cheering on their child as they try to climb up a ladder or try something new--but in Chinese. She was doing this, and then the most interesting thing happened. Emi started imitating what the mom was saying. It was so cute! Even though there was a language barrier between the mom and I, she could also tell what Emi was trying to do. It's amazing what the brain can do--especially children's brains. They are like little sponges! Anyway, I just thought that was really cool. On another note... Emi's started calling Marty and I by our first names half of the time. Today
