Two of many for October...

We had a very exciting suprise last weekend. Our sister-in-law Shelly called us and told us they had a few days left of their condo up at Snowbird and said she'd take our kids while we spent a nice relaxing couple of days up there ALL BY OURSELVES!!! Needless to say we had a GREAT time and we really really like Shelly :)

The condo was gorgeous and the weather couldn't have been more perfect. We went out to eat at a nice restaurant in Sugar House then headed up to Snowbird where we spent most of the evening soaking in our own private hot tub on the balcony.

The next morning Jared let me choose what we were going to do (since it was my soon to be birthday) and of course we went hiking.

Here's Jared taking one of his many breaks...

This picture makes me laugh...he's so proud...and he actually thinks we're done with the hike. Little did Jared know we were going to the top of the snow capped mountain behind him.

Here he is after realizing what he's actaully agreed to do...

About half-way there...

Almost there!!!

We finally made it to the top. It took everything I had to convince Jared to climb back down the mountain. It took everything Jared had to try and convince me to take the tram back down...luckily I still had some left in me after the hike, so I won that battle. (BTW-Jared is not posing in this picture...he actually collapsed and layed there for a looooong while)...

He finally managed to lift his head and enjoy the view.

Here's Jared after realizing what he's capable of and proud that we climbed a big huge mountain.

Thank you Shelly and Jason!!!! It was the perfect weekend! And of course I love you Jared. Thanks for going hiking with me!

I felt Jared's pain just reading this post. Good job! This looks like so much fun. How do I become Shelly's best friend? :)
