WiCkEd!!!

Ahhh what a wonderful weekend it was- the sun was shining, I was out with two of my most favorite people and we were headed to, WICKED!!! Woo Hoo!!

Somehow Marci scored us killer tickets to Wicked at the last minute and we had a girls day. My mom spoiled us and took us to lunch and to the show and out for dessert after. We have the best mom ever!

Here we are waiting in the 100 ft long womens restroom line 10 minutes before the show.... we were getting super excited!

Here we are in our seats- I dont know why but we always sit like this me, my mom, Marci, LOL I just noticed that. We had a great time- Wicked was amazing, the cast was so talented! I wish we could go everyday!

Driving, Driving, Driving...

Ever since we got our new Jeep Rubicon it seems like all we ever do is go on long drives whenever and wherever we can. On conference Sunday it was such a beautiful day and we were tired of sitting inside so we decided to go for a drive and listen to conference instead.

We ended up driving around Santaquin canyon and just sat back, listened to conference and looked at how beautiful it was up there. We were the only ones up the canyon it was awesome.





When conference ended we drove all the way down the canyon and decided to explore whever we could around the area. We drove all the way down to Nephi and headed towards Fountain Green. We turned off into some canyon that connects with the Nebo Loop and as it got dark we decided we better head back home..... thats when we of course, GOT STUCK!
Our Rubicon is pretty awesome and we can climb hills and go all over the place but its no match for really deep snow! Mike had to dig us out with a snow scraper for about a half hour. When that didn't work he went off into the woods, found some logs and put them under the tires and somehow manuvered our way out of there. Im lucky I married a manly man- there was no way I could have gotten us out of that mess!!!

This past week Mikes grandpa passed away. We drove up to Vernal, UT. For the viewing and then La Point, UT. for the burial. After the services we decided to 'swing by' Flaming Gorge before heading home.

It was so beautiful up there this time of year. It was so calm, no tourists or campers or anything yet, it was like we had the whole place to ourselves.

We sat and just thought awhile about Mikes grandpa and what he ment to us. Even though it made our drive home a while longer, it was worth it.

(this is me trying to be a photographer again)

As we were walking back to our car, of course Mike hunted down some sort of wildlife,

this time it was a lizard. When Mike 'grows up' he wants to be Bear Grylls from the TV show, Man Vs. Wild. No really, Im serious....
