Cultured! (not the cheese kind)

Tonight was WONDERFUL!

We had the fabulous opportunity to attend a dinner and tour of the Springville Arts Museum put on by the Utah County Democratic Women. The event was for the whole community, but it was definitely a democratic affair. Dinner was extremely delicious; I particularly enjoyed the lemonade (all 4 glasses of it).

We sat with my brother and his wife, and two other ladies: Dorothy (84), and Mary (60ish?). They were great fun. After a bit of conversation, the discussion naturally turned to the Democrat candidates and we learned that Dorothy "used to like Hillary, but she just can't shut up. I don't blame [her husband] for having an affair!" Bahahahha! Oh my. Terrible--but so funny! (It probably wouldn't amuse us about any other woman in the United States).

After dinner, the registrar gave us a private tour of the Utah Artists exhibit upstairs and I loved knowing about all the art history she mentioned in her spiel! She referenced Romanticism, Nature, the Sublime, and how the invention of photography affected art--ALL of which we discussed in depth in my professor in my English 202 class. Thanks Keith!

Anyway, the night was SO fun. Patrick was the best date and Nate and Molly weren't too bad either. :)

Of course, I forgot to get a picture of the four of us at the museum, so here we are at home.
Man, we're good looking! :)

Thanks again, Nate and Molly, for the super wonderful night!!(and the amazingly cute clothes for Christian!!!)

Oh- I cant forget our fabulous babysitter: Lubka. This super cute girl from Slovakia is Patrick's co-worker. She became buddies with Christian when Patrick took him to work during my classes last semester. She had been asking to babysit Christian all semester, so when Patrick asked her to watch him Wednesday night she said, "Yes, Yes! Oh please! Thank you so much!" Christian loves her and she was a fabulous sitter. Though she'll never read this, THANK YOU, Lubka!

Are you a democrat?

Christian is getting big! I haven't seen him since he was just a tiny baby.
