I have always looked forward to being thirty! I don’t have a concrete answer as to why, it just seems like thirty is when you become a real person, you know what I mean? It’s all the sudden you are of value to the world, you have real ideas, and maybe headed somewhere in life.. I don’t know it just seems romantic to me, the notion of being THIRTY. It’s a milestone perhaps, either way it’s a milestone that I’ve always looked forward to. I will say this, I believe I’m alone in that feeling, out of everyone I have spoken to that has passed the thirty threshold, they all seemed to REALLY dislike turning thirty, for one reason or another. Who knows maybe I’m to naive to see what that saw!

For my big 30, I wanted to do the classic highway 89 road trip. I’ve lived in northern Utah all my life and the furthest south in the sate I’ve made it was Moab. I had to put an end to that, so I pack up the car made a prop and nagged my husband to come with (he didn’t see the charm in it) I wanted to be surround by serene beauty for my milestone birthday! I took loads of pictures and made a small of edit of some clips (very amateur, but F U N) you can watch the one minute video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjo6DF-5m2E

Look at how good I am at being Adult!!!

The only place i didn’t take my sign was antelope canyon (close quarters in there) but hands down one the coolest things I’ve seen. The only bad thing bad that happened was I drowned my birthday cupcakes in the cooler, so I had a cake-less birthday, everything else was one hundred percent okay! especially this fun little video, check it out here watch the one minute video here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yjo6DF-5m2E

We went to Arches National Park, Monument Valley, Valley of the Gods, Horseshoe Bend, Antelope Canyon, Grand Canyon, and Bryce Canyon. It was seriously a good time, definitely a must see area!

I seriously Had a blast. I could do this same trip every year and not be sick of it. It really is amazing this place I (we) live, The world is crazy cool. Am I crazy for thinking that THIRTY is crazy cool too? I suppose we will just have to see what thirty has in store for me!

Nine Years

Nine Years

The hubs and  I celebrated our nine year anniversary on Sunday the 7th. We kept it pretty relaxed since we had just got back from Canada two weeks ago. We did go to this Italian place the night before for dinner and then walked to the grocery store for some Reese’s and ice cream sandwiches (obviously). Sunday morning we walked to breakfast with our dog, which was lovely and delicious! We basically just relaxed the rest of the day. We saw some family, shared a burger, then did our first geocache as an excuse to go for a walk. Then we spent the last couple hours of the day rearranging our bedroom and hanging up art work I had collected through college. We live exhilarating lives I tell you…

No but really, we were reminiscing over the last nine years, all the things we have done, places we’ve gone and things we have accomplished, and not only that, but being a couple that was married young, the odds are defiantly against us, We are happy, and in love and honestly we are best friends. These nine years have been wild and crazy and awesome! There should be a lot of new changes happening this next year or two. I can’t wait to reminisce next year.

We had to include the dog, A) because he is family B) we got him for our 4th anniversary.  I am 1oo % okay with these two! Don’t they look so good!

It’s important to remember all the things that we have done because it’s what makes us who we are. Don’t dwell on the bad things as you look back, but acknowledge that they helped get you where you are. Don’t be sad that good days are behind you because everyday we have a chance to make it the best day! I love my happy days and sad days with this guy, he is the best because he thinks I’m the best.
