Happy Birthday, Steven!

Yesterday was Steven's birthday so we celebrated by going to Tucanos for his free birthday meal. For those of you who aren't familiar with Tucanos, it's basically a Brazilian style all-you-can-eat meatery. There is a salad bar for all the salady things, but the best part is the meat. A bunch of guys roam the room with swords filled with meat of sorts, they cut pieces off for you as they go around. I can tell that I am nearing done when I can feel the outline of my stomach from the outside. I usually out-eat my brother and cousin...they like taking me to tucanos.
After filling ourselves, we wandered around town, mostly looking for new mattresses. It was pretty tempting to fall asleep as our stomachs were full and the beds were very comfortable. We also stopped by Bed Bath and Beyond to stop and see a friend who works there.



The day before this, Steven, Randi, and I went for a hike up Rock Canyon. Our goal was to get to Squaw Peak but we started out too late and had to turn back early so we wouldn't be hiking back in complete darkness. It was a good workout and my body keeps telling me that especially the last two mornings as I've tried to roll out of bed or when i've been heading down some stairs. I have been reminded of some muscles that have not been used as much lately.





Today, we attended the homecoming of a cousin who just returned from her mission to Korea. It was very nice getting to spend some time with extended family. After we returned home, we cleaned out my freezer. I believe if you refer to a previous post (in January, I believe), you will find a similar picture regarding my refrigerator. Half of what you see belongs to one person and it is not me. Needless to say, I am not happy. I will be having a chat with said person as soon as she comes home today...which should be soon.
