We’ve finally done it. I grew up here and Jeff went to BYU for like a hundred years and neither of us had ever hiked the Y. And since we’re all healthy and active now we decided it was time. It was a lot harder than I had expected it to be but it was beautiful and worth it and fun to be able to do it together. If you’ve never hiked it, there are 12 switchbacks and the 11th switchback is the longest and steepest one on the whole thing. A pretty cruel trick if you ask me. We were about 1/4 of the way up this switchback and Jeff says, “Let’s run it.” I was shocked and proud at the same moment so we started running up this beast of a switchback and about 3/4 of the way to the end we stopped because it hurt so bad. But you should have seen the faces of the people we passed as we were running. They really thought we had done that the whole way up! Totally worth it! Going up was hard and going down was obnoxious. We had a really good time though and thanks Laney and Kelly for watching the kids and sorry again for the throw up.

I’m blowing this baby up.

I don’t care what anyone says, Utah is fan-freakin-beautiful and I’m so proud to call it home.

For some reason these rocks reminded me of New Zealand or something.

Centennial Apartments. That’s where Jeffy and I met.

The Y from the top. If I was still 15, I would have hiked up higher to get a better picture of it, but I’m not, so deal with it.

Lindsay started a Jazz dance class last week and she had a lot of fun. There are just three girls in her class, her and her two friends Ashlee and Emily. I can imagine the good times that will be had by all in that class. She’s such a cute little dancer. I can’t wait for her first recital.

Logan also went to a little creative dance type class last week, but did not love it as much. He sat in my lap the whole time and he wouldn’t even let ME do any of the things Miss Jamie wanted them to do. Oh well. I think we’ll try it one more time and if he doesn’t like it then we’ll skip it and try something else. I really thought he’d like it because he was SOO excited to go to a class for HIM. That hasn’t really happened yet. Most everything we do is something for Lindsay and he just has to come along for the ride. We’re going to try a gymnastics class in a few weeks and I hope he’ll really like that because I want us to be able to do something like that together while Lindsay is at preschool. We’ll see.
