Later that night..My friend Laurens brother Nick was in town randomly...and came over, so we could all pick up Lauren from the airport! It was a fun night...but I was so exhausted!!

It was a fun day!!That night we went to bring the columns to the church...then James and I had to meet with Pres. Bishop!! After that we went to go get all of our rental items from Sis Bailey...Thank goodness Nick was still over and had an Suv as a rental!! It made life so much easier! Less trips!! Once we got back we made this amazing dinner!! Salmon...salad..pasta..and Nick made these amazing scallops wrapped in bacon!!! Yumm Yumm!!!
