Helen Hunt Falls

Today we decided to get out and enjoy the gorgeous fall weather in the mountains. We went up to Helen Hunt Falls, took a short hike, and then found our way to a secluded picnic spot by the river. It was SO nice to get out and "get away" for the day.

Tajine Alami

(By Jen)

Tonight was another "girls night" for me, and it was SO much fun!! I invited one of my best friends, Heather, and we went out with Mom Kelly and Auntie Cheryl. We lived quite adventurously and went for Moroccan food at Tajine Alami!! Once we got there, they had us remove our shoes at the door and sit on pillows around the table. After looking over the menu, we decided on the 4 course meal instead of the 6 course meal. We had quite the feast - with NO silverware I might add. You have never lived until you have eaten a whole meal with just your hands!! (I had a great time eating cous cous with no spoon!!) The only thing we missed out on was the belly dancing show and the belly dancing lessons because they only do it certain nights of the week. Bummer!! Afterwards, we went out for some decaf and chat time at Starbucks, and then went our separate ways very full and very tired. How come it is that some things are just more fun without the boys?? =)
