Anniversary Weekend

When Dawn and I got married five years ago we never were able to go on a honeymoon (she doesn't know that my honeymoon has been the entire first five years of our marriage...bonus points!). We had planned on going on a small vacation on our 5th year anniversary to some place tropical and very relaxing. Plans always change (work and such) so we weren't able to make a tropical vacation. Instead we hit my office Christmas party, stayed the night in SLC, came home the next day to see the kids and then went to Eden for a relaxing night. It was great, massive amounts of snow and ice hit Utah so we had slow cruising but made it to the Lodge on Saturday afternoon. I think we were the only people in the entire hotel so we were able to play pool at the hotel pool table and take Scrabble back to our room for some intense board gaming. Although some would say that a tropical vacation would have been better, this weekend was right up our alley and was fantastic. We packed up bright and early Sunday morning to make it to church and almost didn't make it because of some big wrecks on the way home. Here are some pics of the getaway.

This was our photography tripod that we used for our self portraits...very innovative!
