I have to admit... I am pretty lucky. I entered our names for tickets for the Mormon Tabernacle Christmas Concert in October. In November I got an email saying we won 4 tickets for the Saturday night concert! I was so excited because the concert is free and I didn't tell Derek about it, so this would be the first time being able to actually surprise Derek about something amazing! He always guesses, looked at the bank statement, and I just can't surprise the guy. Well, he had to check my email for some billing purpose and happened to find the tickets before I could surprise him. Boo. So, it wasn't me surprising him, BUT we were both super excited to go! We took our friend Hulkaroy and her husband who are from Uzbekistan. Hulkaroy is studying to teach special needs children when she goes back to Uzbekistan. Her husband was visiting for the month of December, so it worked out perfectly! It was fun being the tourist guide instead of the tourist. We ate dinner at the blue lemon at city creek before the concert. It was pretty awesome. They had guest performances from an opera singer Deborah Voigt and then John Rhys-Davies AKA Gimly from Lord of the Rings did some acting. It was a really fun date night! Another something to check off the bucket list.
