lit up

Saturday night we hit up the ward Christmas party and then went to see the light display at the Riverwoods. It was pretty chilly with a little bit of moisture in the air, but we braved it anyways. We bundled Caitlin up to the max and went with Tingeys, Barnes, Taylors, and Pyfers. They do free horse carriage rides which Paul really could not have been more excited about and you can also get free hot cider and cookies, and at certain times Santa comes. The lights are beautiful! They are all super sparkly and lots of fun shapes and sizes. And the horses can haul! It was a bit of a wild ride on that carriage. Very fun.

 
 
 

We walked around and looked in shops. Then we heard that Apollo Anton Ohno was there! He was on his book tour and had made a stop in Utah that day! So we hurried over to Borders and they were just finishing up but we somehow wriggled our way up to the front of the pack and got him to sign a book and got pictures with him! He was really nice, and actually a very small man. After the girls took our pictures Tyler went to talk to him and he pretended that he thought Apollo was a speed WALKER not skater and Apollo was so confused when Tyler kept calling it speed walking. Then when he corrected him and said he was a speed SKATER Tyler said that he had no idea and just thought he was on dancing with the stars. It was hilarious. Apollo and all his security were laughing so hard. I'm sure Apollo won't soon forget his awesome "fan" from that night in Provo.
