Happy Valentimes!


This year for Valentine's Day we decided to instead of give gifts to each other have a romantic get-away. We decided to head south to St. George, and since it was cheaper to go not during Valentine's weekend, we celebrated it early. On our way down we decided to follow a scenic "Sunday Drive" recommended from our road maps that went from Bryce Canyon to St. George. It really was so beautiful. We ventured off I-15 and made it to Bryce. As you can see, it was a bit snowy, but it started to clear up while we were in the canyon. I also ran into some people from France and got to practice my French. There was hardly anyone there, so what are the odds? I was excited because I fear I'm loosing it, but he told me I spoke well, so that brightened my day. Every time we visit one of the National Parks, we run into people from France. I love it.
After Bryce, we drove south toward the east side of Zion's NP and drove through the southern part of the park. That was amazingly beautiful too. I totally recommend that drive. The sun was going down through Zions and we were eager to get to St. George, so we didn't stop and I regretfully didn't get any pictures. Oh well.


I had to include this picture of James at In and Out Burger. They finally opened one up there after a long battle. The place was packed. Despite the rain we had a great weekend. We posted more pictures on the album.

I feel so lucky to be married to James. I really feel like I struck gold as far as husbands go (if only that was literally too, I'll take figuratively all the same).

Happy Valentimes Everyone! (love kids that say Valentimes, I really do know how to spell)
