A Trip to Farm Country

This past Friday I took the day off work to join the kindergarten on their field trip to Thanksgiving Point's Farm Country.  It was so fun to hangout with the kindergartners and be the mom helper and NOT the teacher.  Luckily we only had an hour to spend at Farm Country because it was FREEZING!!  I had a group of 4 darling little boys.  Bentley's favorite part of the field trip was feeding the llama out of his hand.  He said it tickled. Here's a couple pictures of our trip.


I took the whole day off work to hangout with Bentley.  After the field trip we went to see Hop for the 2nd time and we ended up seeing it again that night with Brian. Yes, we've seen it 3 times and LOVE it! The next day I woke up to Bentley playing the drums on the couch. Just a side note my fitness blog has been updated.

Weekend Getaway

For my birthday this year Brian gave me a weekend give away to Zions Park and St. George.  He found a Groupon for Zions Ponderosa Resort, a place neither of us had ever heard of.  It was such a fun place to stay.  The resort is on the east end of the park, outside of the park.  It's up in the mountains.  Once we got there we could see why the Groupon deal was only for March and April.  The resort had a ton of activities and an amazing pool. However, the pool had 2 inches of ice on it and all of the activities were closed for the season.  It would be a super fun place to go in the summer.  We stayed in a little cabin, when I say little I mean little as in no bathroom in the cabin.  The bathrooms were really close and nice and clean.  We had so much fun.  We headed to St. George on Saturday to go mountain biking.  We rode the Zen Trail which was extremely technical.  We had to carry our bikes pretty much the first half, over boulders and such. I may or may not have been a good sport through the entire trail.  Overall it was a great ride.  Brian really enjoyed it.  The weather was SO nice, especially for early March.  Here's some pics of our getaway.
 In our cabin. This is a horrible picture taken from my phone with horrible lighting.
 If you look closely you can see Brian in this picture.  He's coming down the 3 Fingers of Death.  It looks a lot worse in real life.  In the picture it looks like a hill.
 The rest of the pictures are taken on the Zen Trail
