IN GOOD COMPANY.


I had quite the busy weekend with friends but it was most definitely a good one. I wish I could've gotten a few better photos but let's face it, who wants to carry their camera to the bar? This is when iPhones come in extra handy.

Friday night we got to go to a Sundance film that actually debuted 19 years ago at the film festival, Plan 10 From Outer Space. The writer and director, Trent Harris, was also at the showing and he was really interesting and hilarious to listen to. It makes a film so much more satisfying when you get to see the mind behind it. The actual film was, well, very odd but I would be lying if I said that I didn't enjoy it. It's pretty funny and it's interesting to see your city and the culture of it on film.

After the movie we got to go and celebrate my wonderful cousin Tiffany's 22nd birthday at Cheers to You. I had no idea that they do karaoke there on the weekends but apparently they do! I wish I had the courage to do it myself but I'm afraid that it would've taken about 4 more shots and a lot larger bar tab to get me to do it! Happy Birthday Piffy, I love you!

Saturday night we had a fun night in with our friends Nick and Kim, who recently moved closer to us and we couldn't be happier about it. We see them so much more now and it's been great to have a couple-friend who is always down to hang out.

Sunday we got to spend the day with one of Greg's oldest friends, Brett, and his beautiful wife Kirsten, who were in town from Puerto Rico. For days leading up to it we were stressing about what to do with them, what to show them, etc. but it ended up being a simple, fun little hangout. We barhopped a little bit and just got to chit chat. It would've been fun to show them Park City but Greg and I both despise that cute little town during Sundance. Too many people, not enough parking, blah blah blah.

  1. It was so nice meeting you! It was so nice to just relax one day and let Brett and Greg catch up... we were happy to bar hop and see the local sights that make you guys love living there! I can relate to wanting to figure out the perfect thing to do when people are visiting - it can be majorly (overly and pointlessly) stressful. Hoping you guys can join us here before we leave! And way to go on the blog. I had HIGH hopes of keeping one up and I just didn't. Maybe I'll write a "year in review" post (although it looks like it's almost been a year and a half since I posted) yeesh... -Kirsten http://tropicalsitch.tumblr.com/
