Anniversary Trip- Park City in Spring


Happy 13th Anniversary to us!!! How can time go by so quickly? We have had an amazing thirteen years together and are excitedly looking forward to the next thirteen, an the next thirteen after that!!!

Byron and I celebrated our 13th Anniversary by taking a little trip. If you read my blog you know how much I love tripping without the kids. I like to trip with the kids as well, but if you haven't tripped without kids lately you really should!!! We have a place up in Park City we like to stay at, it is awesome. Hotel Park City. They have these cottages that are so cute and wonderfully lush. The beds are amazingly comfy and each cottage has their own private hot tub on the deck. It really is a fun place. We headed up the canyon and enjoyed each other for the weekend, we also enjoyed the Pad Thai and Curry at our favorite Thai restaurant in Utah. So good we almost ate there twice in a row but decided to venture out and try something new. Anyway, we had such a fun time being together. A huge thanks goes out to my sister Sonja who kept the kids for us so we could go. She is amazing! They had so much fun without us. She even let them get seconds at the Frozen Yogurt shop they love. Seconds? They had a blast.

As part of our fun weekend adventure we decided to test drive scooters. What were we thinking right? It was so fun! Beside the freezing wind chill factor, really snow in April? It wasn't snowing while we were test driving but leaving the parking lot it shortly began to snow. Regardless, it was a cold test drive but totally fun. We drove Vespa's and the Buddy but really I fell in love with the Stella scooters which are an old vintage looking scooter. So totally cute!

We also got in a lot of shopping. Thank you outlet malls! We both purchased more clothes than probably the last 6 months combined. Again, what were we thinking? It was fun though and they were having some great sales so if you are going to spend your time shopping you might as well buy and make it worth the effort. We shopped till Byron pulled the plug on the whole ordeal and had to refuel with food.

After lunch we headed for the art galleries and Main Street. We found our future octypus coffee table for when we buy a beach house. It is only $12,000...no sweat, right. Seriously though if you have a beach house this octypus table was amazing. Those eight twisty turny legs holding up a thick piece of glass. Really something. It was probably my favorite piece of art we saw that day. So cool. Plus, you can get the octypus in pretty much any color you want. Of course we would do red, when we get the beach house.

Needless to say we had a fun weekend, ate lots of food and enjoyed great company. I am so happy to be able to say I love Byron more today than the day I married him. He is an amazing husband and father and I am so lucky and blessed to have him in my life. I recently was filling out a card for a wedding and said, "Congratulations on your marriage. Make it great." Our lives are what we make them and I am so glad for the decisions that we have made to bring us to today, right now. We have an amazing life together and I wouldn't change a thing.
