A Weekend Away


Last weekend for the three day holiday Katie was able to secure a cabin in the Timber Lakes up above Heber and so we were able to get out of Provo (the nasty inversion) for the long weekend. It was so nice to be up above the bad air and just have time to hang out and relax. Cyndee, Todd and Dan accompanied us for the weekend.

We played lots of games. Well we only played two games but we played lots of those two games. Dominion and Pinochle. Oh and we played a little card game called Dog. It was fun to just eat junk food, and I mean lots of it, and play games. The games only got a little intense once when Dan tried to blame me for cheating in Pinochle. A few rounds later we were totally over it:)

On Monday we went on an awesome snowshoeing adventure. We hiked to the top of this mini mountain. It was super steep and there was around 2 and 1/2 feet of snow. It was pretty fresh snow so it was a great workout. This was my first real experience off of a trail. Our mini mountain was pretty steep so Todd taught me and Katie how to run straight down the mountain with snowshoes on. That was really fun and I am excited to try it again.

Todd also demonstrated what happens if you don't keep the front of the snowshoe up while running down the mountain (aka face plant).

Overall it was a very nice weekend and I was not ready to come back to work.
