Early in April we had a check-up for Addie at PCMC. All was well and we go back in December.
Now that they have wi-fi, the waiting passes much more quickly.
Addie wanted to have her hair done up and take her doll Piper. She always has to take a doll.
Later in April, Lane and I made an overnight trip to a B&B in Salt Lake to celebrate our 20th anniversary. The B&B was AWESOME and I am so ready to go back. We stayed at Armstrong Mansion. I think it was on about 7th East and 100 South? Not quite sure, but it was on the opposite corner of the Downtown Anniversary Inn. I loved it.
We went up on Friday evening, and had dinner at a Ruby River steakhouse there on 7th East. It didn't seem as good as the Ruby River in Provo, but maybe that's just because I haven't been there for a long time. It was a little disappointing, I must admit, although the service was really good.
We didn't realize that Saturday morning was the SLC marathon, but we ventured the few blocks to downtown anyway to check out the new City Creek Center. It was really cool with all the fountains and everything they have done. The stores are super expensive, but we did have lunch at the Cheesecake Factory while we were there.
I've only been to a Cheesecake Factory once (Lane never) and that was in 2001 on our Seattle/Victoria/Discovery Bay trip. I remember it being ok, but nothing to write home about. But since we are now all Big Time having one in SLC, we figured we'd give it a shot.
I don't even remember now what I had for lunch, but I am pretty sure I read the entire novel - um, menu - before I finally decided. Whatever it was, I remember it was delicious.
But what I remember the most is that I wanted to have this picture from the menu blown up poster size and hung on my wall. That is the most beautiful-looking piece of cheesecake I have ever seen. And WHAT could possibly be better than the combination of 2 of my very most favoritest things: red velvet cake and cheesecake! All rolled into one!! That's why I can't remember my dinner. I was way to focused on making sure I had room for the cheesecake. Which I didn't. But I ate it anyway.
And I don't feel bad about it.

Glad you had a great anniversary! We love the Armstrong Mansion too. We stayed there our first two nights after getting married. I love the red velvet cheesecake too! So glad they put it on the menu now. The first time I had it was in NY and it was just a special around Valentines.
