temple square and a date night

we didn't have plans for the day
other than run four miles...which michael and i did on the treadmill this morning
but noah thought we should go to temple square
so that's what we did
with a quick stop at chipotle on the way, of course
 it was a really pretty (and fairly cold) day
we walked around the salt lake temple
and inside the joseph smith memorial building
 and then to the church history museum for the kids to play 
noah and hazel skipped holding hands, it was the cutest
 eleanor was way in to these small chairs
i love all four of them sitting together
 then we quickly stopped at trader joes for a few essentials
and dropped the kids at the church for a babysitting swap
and michael, eleanor and i went out to dinner
 we ended up at wingers of all places
(we hate wingers)
and it was actually pretty decent
and lots of fun to go on a date, even with our little ella girl

How sweet that Noah wanted to go to temple square. That is so fun that your ward does babysitting swap. Sounds like a fun weekend.

Have you been to pizzeria 712 yet? It is our favorite. That and communal. We had church babysitting on Friday too! All we did was go out to dinner and think of all the restaurants we miss in Provo, so many good places....

Tallia, no we haven't been to either but I want to try both. We were supposed to go to Communal last weekend but Noah had a high fever. I hope to go soon. I love your tips!!
