Saturday was a busy but really fun day.
Jordan and I have wanted to try this farmhouse restaurant that is right down the street from us. We have been told they serve amazing breakfast. We got up early and when we saw the long line (which is always a good sign of a great place to eat) we decided to wait to go another morning and went to Ihop instead. We were invited by Brad and Lindsey to go rock climbing at an indoor climbing gym in Scottsdale that afternoon so we were on a time restriction.
After breakfast we headed to Scottsdale for an afternoon of climbing, bouldering and slack lining.
I made it to the top on the easier climbs but need to work on getting in better shape so that I can do some of the more advanced climbs. I am always impressed watching Jordan climb. He is so quick and can easily visualize the next hold.

After climbing we drove home for a BBQ Jordan put together with some of the members in our ward who live in our apartment complex. We ended up having quite a large group that showed up including the sister missionaries. We had to eat in shifts to accommodate the small grill but everyone had a lot of fun.
Brad, Lindsey, Brad's sister Chelsey and Lindsey's sister Chantalle also came for the BBQ and while most people went swimming after eating we put together a quick game of kick ball. It ended up being a pretty competitive and dangerous game. I tripped and "slid" into first base cutting up both knees and foot, Lindsey got hit a little too hard by the ball knocking the wind out of her and Jordan twisted his ankle twice and spent the rest of the night with ice on his foot.
We took that as a sign to call it a night and spent the rest of the night talking and relaxing by the pool before they headed back to Glendale.
It was such a fun day.
