I Love to See the Temple!
Of all the places the Gadd Family goes, the temple is the most important. Click on the picture to read one woman's feelings about the temple. Her testimony expresses perfectly the way our own family feels about the temple. We are excited to have one of God's holy houses so close to our own!

A Hijacking!

Our Hijacking faces.

In November OU had their last home game. Kevin hadn't been feeling well and didn't want to make the trip. On Saturday morning I woke up and said, "Why don't I go. There's no reason to waste the tickets."

So Cora and I hopped in the car and drove 5 hours to the Oklahoma vs. Texas Tech game.
Along the way we came to the conclusion that we had hijacked man weekend and we liked it!

The game was freezing, so to keep warm we cuddled up, danced to all the fun music and cheered every cheer. It was a blast!



After the game and TONS of traffic we made it to the mall to use Cora's JUSTICE gift card. She bought herself funky erasers and a Justin Bieber CD, which quickly became our soundtrack for the rest of the trip. Then it was dinner at Olive Garden.

Mmmmm......breadsticks!


Thanks to Priceline.com Kev got us a good deal on a nice hotel and we crashed as soon as we got there. After sleeping in it was off to breakfast before we made the 5 hr. drive back to Missouri.

Of course we had to go to the finest establishment we could find that served pecan waffles.
Waffle House!!!!
Seriously, the best pecan waffle ever!
While at the Waffle House I had the best comment of my life!
Our cute waitress asked us if we were having a sisters day out. It took a second for the question to register before I asked, "Did you just say sister? I'm her mom!" She kept going on and on about how she would never have guessed I was old enough to be her mom. She must of secretly known I would be turning 30 in a few months and was fishing for a good tip. Well, she got one!
