New Trick

Ta da! I can point to my nose!
I can do it without being asked! I especially like to do this in public and while eating.


Aren't I amazing?

Going South

Benj and I just got back from a fabulous weekend trip to sunny St. George! It was our first trip without Logan and it was much needed. We called it our second honeymoon. I love how there is a totally different vibe/feel only 4 hours away from where we live. It was beautiful weather and we had the greatest time!
We went to Snow Canyon on Saturday. We hiked around and enjoyed the scenery.

We ate at a really cool place called Anasazi. They bring out these hot lava stones at 700 degrees and you cook your steak right in front of you. It was really fun.
See the hot rocks?
Benj had lots of fun playing chef.


Then it was on to dessert. Chocolate caramel fondue - it was heaven.

You can tell I'm extremely happy in this picture.


We also visited the temple grounds. This is one of my favorite temples. Something about the white temple against the red rock. It is so beautiful.So were the flowers. We took lots of self-portraits on this trip. This picture is my favorite.

We ended the evening with a trip to the Tuacahn Theater to see Brian Regan. I have never seen my husband laugh so hard.

This kiddo got spoiled rotten by Grandma and Grandpa Croft and Uncle Andy. I swear he got cuter while we were gone.

4 Years

Today we celebrate 4 YEARS of wedded bliss. What a lucky girl I am. I get to be married to the best man I've ever known (and also a complete stud . . . just look at him. Love that sly smile.)
These lovelys magically appeared on my doorstep yesterday. One dozen for Mothers Day, one dozen for our anniversary. I smell them everytime I walk by. Flowers always remind me of our special day because it was so beautiful. Honestly the best day of my life.

This weekend we get to escape to St. George . . . just the two of us. I'm going to try to relax and not worry too much about being away from Logan. I can't wait to be with my hubby and act like newlyweds.

I love you Benj. Happy 4 years and here's to many more.

xoxo - me

5K

I hate to admit this, but I haven't run a single race since my marathon in 2005. So sad! I can't blame anyone but myself. I was really excited when my sister-in-law asked Benj and me to run in a 5k last Saturday. It was so much fun!

Cute sister-in-law and family

The whole group

Now I want to do another one! Let me know if you hear of any coming up!
