Small get away is just what the Dr ordered

Well, the end of spring break is here and Lisa and I are gearing up to once again tackle the books. We took a little trip to Southern Utah for a few days this week and visited Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park. They were both a lot of fun but we probably enjoyed Zions the most. Bryce was pretty but there was still a foot of snow on the ground so we weren't able to get out and hike some of the trails. It was still nice of them to name a park after me though. Zion's was a blast. It was a nice 78 degrees and we were able to hike a couple of the trails. Some of my sibblings might remember a little antique store near Zion that we stopped at once and picked up some cactus candy and fruit jelly. Well I thought I recognized the place so we made a quick stop to pick up some cactus candy only to be hoovered upon by the guy working there. Apperantly we were the first people in that store for a couple of weeks because the guy (who had a weird smell to him) clinged to us as if we were his long lost children coming home. We bought some over priced Habenero Jelly just so we could get out of there. They didn't even have the stuff I was looking for. We stayed in an Inn in Cedar City while we were there . It was nice, but the guy at the front desk was a little creepy. Have any of you seen the movie "Vacancy"?

Life is still going good and we are slowly plugging along at work and school. I'm really excited for the warm weather to come. I've had enough of the snow and cold for the year.

We lost our camera hook up to the computer so once we find it we'll post some pictures from the trip.

2 years and counting.

Yesterday we celebrated our 2 year anniversary. We made reservations at Rodigio's Brazillian grill, which is one of our favorites, and literally ate until it hurt; and then we ate some more. The food there is amazing. One of their dishes was rattle snake sausage and roasted bufallo. The rattle snake was okay, and bufallo meat is really lean and chewy. The rest was really good!

After that we needed to walk around to digest all that meat (they have a salad bar but why waste space with salad)? So we went to gateway and walked around a bit. The day was pretty relaxed, especially since Lisa didn't get out of bed until well past noon which meant I was able to come home from school and get back in bed too. My wife is the best!

This Thursday is her b-day so we get to do something all over again. I just don't think my stomach can handle another massive meat feast. Maybe I'll take her to a nice soup, sandwich, and salad place. I know I'll take her to Olive Garden, she'd love that!=) Seriously though she would be one unhappy camper if I tried to take her there.

And last but not least spring break is coming up this week and we both have off at the same time. We are planning a trip to Zion's national park/Bryce Canyon for a few days. I just need to get rid of one more shift and we'll be ready to go. This trip couldn't have come at a better time, I'm getting pretty run down between school and work. We both need this little break.

Until next time.
