z is for zion's

i loved my little birthday weekend getaway with my hubby! 
we hiked angel's landing (first time for him) and it was crazy fun. 
if you hike angel's landing, my advice to you is 


1. bring lots and LOTS of water and snacks 
2. hike early in the morning otherwise you'll be burning hot, and 
3. bring a first aid kit. i cut my leg and got a bloody nose because of the abrupt altitude change.
4. wear a hat if you can
5. don't give up! it gets really rough & kind of scary at the top, but don't stop. just keep going. it's all worth it once you up there and look over the valley. 


we started climbing at 11 in the morning, and after hiking to the top and resting for lunch, we made it back down around 3:30, 4 ish. so it takes a little while.


we also saw the new pirates 4 movie. then we sat around on sunday and just played and watched tv.
this morning we drove home and i went straight to work.
my nose is sunburned and peeling, a thanks goes to no sunscreen, my legs feel like jello with sticks in them
and my bum is nice and tight. all i want to do is sleep, and instead i'm here at work. boo! 

i love my job, but i'd do anything for a chilly bowl of mint chocolate chip icecream wearing nothing but my skibbies and all cuddled up with my puppy and nick watching an extreme chick flick.

:) you bet.

i think i'll buy a pie.

here's a cute picture of my dog.

unfortunately, it's fuzzy because she couldn't stand still, the rascal.

we still can't potty train her.

dangit apartment complexes. give us yards!

i miss mccall, chels, and tiffany.

i really want to go to strawberry days this year. i've never tried the strawberries and cream! (be sad..)

tomorrow i'm going to buy fabric from walmart and go crazy.

maybe i'll buy some patio string lights and put them on my porch,

then make a fabric string of flags and hang it on our banister

then i'll make flower headbands and tshirts.
