A Perfect Date

Dylan and I had the chance to spend the day together, which doesn't happen very often. We are always running here or there, Izzy has dance, or I have work...it was a rare treat for us to have the entire day to spend one on one.
He helped me out at work until 2, then we took off and spent the rest of the afternoon at the Utah Museum of Natural History. Wow! Amazing! We could have spent at least an entire day. There were a lot of hands-on exhibits. We both learned a lot. Like Ravens and Beavers are huge! Dire wolves are real (who knew), we want to be Navajo, and spiders are super gross. I get it--spiders are helpful, blah blah blah. According to Dylan and I, they are ugly and sneak up on you. Thanks anyway.
After all that learning and exploring, we had worked up quite an appetite, so we went to Bruges for a pretty fabulous dinner. I got a vanilla waffle with creme fresh and raspberries, while Dylan had a vanilla waffle with vanilla bean ice cream, raspberries, and belgian chocolate drizzled on top. Ice cream for dinner?!? Everything I make for dinner from this point on will pale in comparison. If you haven't been, you really should give it a try. Mark and Sarah took us last week before the Band of Horses concert, and I haven't stopped thinking about that dang waffle since. Between the waffles and the massive amount of chocolate covered cinnamon bears I've been eating lately, I should be enormous by the next time you see me :)

What a fun date, Dylan is a really handsome man to have on your arm. You'll have to take me for one of those waffles, sounds good.
