So..... hi..... I have been slacking JUST  a little. What's happened since the last post? ....

At the end of April, Shane and I celebrated our FIFTH wedding anniversary. We left our kids with Shane's mom  (hardest thing ever) for the weekend and we went to Zion's National Park. We hiked around and I actually did a pretty strenuous hike! And for anyone who knows me, this is a pretty big feat! Angel's Landing is hard :(   But I did it! The WHOLE thing. And what did I think??? Not worth it. Sorry - but there is no view worth not being about to walk for 3 days. Oh well. It was an experience though :)

Proof....

We also figured out how to take some cool pics with Shane's fancy new camera!


Cute story about those two pictures. On our way down to Zions, we stopped at Cove Fort. Through the hundreds of times I've driven on I-15, I have always wanted to stop there. Anyway, the Sister Missionary that was showing us around knew that it was our anniversary and so she had a "little something" for us. She told us this story about a prairie diamond (a bent horseshoe nail) and she had Shane get down on one knee and read a poem and ask me to marry him. What's funny is, I never got a real proposal so 5 years after we got married, I FINALLY got my proposal :) It was very sweet.




We didn't take a whole ton of pictures, but the one with all the switchbacks is a look back down on what we had hiked so far. The second is the view from the top (with some random girl's head in the shot)
