A Visit From Brad

We really wanted to go to Utah to see Brad before he left on his mission to Wichita, KS but Brian couldn't take any time off of work and two tickets to Utah is pretty pricey.  One to Ohio seemed a little more manageable, so we asked Brad if wanted to come spend a couple days with us instead.

The first day Brad was here, he and I went to a morning session at the temple.  After that, we went to the zoo!

 After the zoo, we met up with Brian and went to dinner and then to see a movie.  We saw Monument's Men.  Brad was trying to get in as many of the new movies as he could before he left.

The next day, Brian took off work and we headed up to Kirtland.  On the way, we got lunch at a hibachi place that was really tasty!  Sadly, the temple wasn't open for tours but we still got to stop and see it and then took a tour at the church sites and headed down for a tour at the Johnson Farm as well.

 After our tour at the Johnson farm, we were planning on heading back to Cleveland for a Cavalier's game, but we didn't realize how far away it was.  So instead, we found a indoor golfing dome and hit a few balls!  Then we grabbed some pizza and headed home.

The next day, Brad flew home.  It was a really quick trip, but we were super happy that we got to spend some time with Brad before he left.  We had lots of fun with him during his trip here and we are going to miss him for the next two years, but we know he is going to make one heck of a missionary and are super proud of him!
