New to Blogging

Well, I know several people who blog, especially back home in Washington and I thought I would give it a try. I still don't know how to find groups or friends yet but I hope I will learn.

This weekend was my and my husband Daniel's 9 year anniversary. Well, actually it's not until Thursday but we celebrated it this past weekend. It was SOOOO enjoyable. We went to dinner in downtown SLC to a brazilian restaurant called Radizzio's. It was amazingly delicious. We also had the opportunity to sit next to an actor named Jason Parr who starred in a movie called Rigoletto. I got his autograph for my sister. She's a fan of the movie. So that was pretty exciting.

We then poceeded to go indoor rock climbing at this place called IRock. It was really fun. We each went up 3 times and it's amazing how out of shape I am. My arms were pretty sore afterward. Daniel dd climb higher than me. He' s afraid of heights so I was really impressed that he did so well. then we went across the street from IRock to the movie theatre and saw "what happens in Vegas". I was hoping it would be a good movie and it was . There was a lot of humor and lots of laughter. I, of course, laughed too loud as usual. I'm not one to laugh quietly. I try but it just doesn't happen. anyway, it was very funny.

Then on saturday morning we went up to hike to Waterfall Canyon in Ogden. It's only a 4 or 5 minute drive from my house which is so exciting. I love hiking being so close. Total, the hike took about 3 hours which was perfect. I'm told it's around a 2 mile hike up there but it sure seemed longer. The actual waterfall was so beautiful. I haven't seen a waterfall in person in 10 years so it was very much something I missed. I also climbed some good sized rocks. Daniel is such a sport. I don't think his first pick would be to hike but he's always willing to go on my "little adventures" no matter how unexpected. We did get some amazing pictures.

So the rest of the weekend, we went more with daniel's style of fun...We layed around watching movies and reading books. It was so quiet and peaceful in the house. I almost didn't know what to do with myself. It was an amazing weekend. I can't believe it's 9 years already. Time sure fly's by so quickly.

Cristy,

I set up the Dinner Diva's blogspot and clicked on yours...you will soon become addicted to this blogging!

Your anniversary celebrations sound wonderful. I am jealous.

The waterfall hike is actually closer to 4 miles (depending on where you started) two weekends ago we hiked (with the kids) up strong's Canyon...which if you continue up will lead to the waterfall. We didn't go up that far because we didn't think we could make it with both kids!

I know some great hiking trails if you are interested!

See you tomorrow-and we missed you at T-ball last Thursday!
