Hello Kitty

So we own a small row of storage units.  Gary manages it all and in general it is fairly straight forward.  However, we currently have a renter that we had to evict because of non-payment for over a year.  Although she told us that she removed her stuff, there is still lots of stuff in the unit. One find was two big boxes filled with Hello Kitty stuff.  Why??? Who knows...the DI or Toys for Tot will be excited.  I guess Hello Kitty is a popular thing at the moment.  My kids will do their own "shopping" and then off it goes.  Jessica says that even with the young adults she works with, Hello Kitty things are very popular.  Who knew and why does this old woman have this stuff in her storage unit.






Gary is having "fun" checking out all of the boxes and file cabinets that were left behind.
 

Saturday Snowfall

November 16th--and winter has arrived. Not a fan!


 

Taylorsville Temple

We had to go to Salt Lake to meet with our financial planner so we decided to combine it with a visit to the Taylorsville Temple, another one of the new temples which we have not visited yet.

It seems almost "dropped" right next to the I-215 freeway in Taylorsville,  It is so close to the roads there.

And I am not a fan of the more squared look of the outside.  However, I had heard that it was amazing inside--a place that John Taylor (the third prophet of the Church) would have felt right at home.
It was stunning inside.  With dark woods and more period style furnishing make it unique and so fun to experience.

And up close, I loved the outside details as well.





Not my personal style, but I can still love it when I see it.  It is fun to share these adventures with Gary and Jena.

No pictures of our financial meeting or our visit with Karla since we were in town, then we rushed back to Syracuse so I could go to dinner with Debbie Woodrow and Amy O'Dell Daily,  (Kristy who usually joins us was sick.)  

 

Sunset In Eden

We popped up to Nordic Valley to visit with Vonette and Gary for a bit and as we left their home, I caught the sunset reflecting on the mountains to the east.  It lasted just a minute of two, but beautiful.
