BIG Week!!

Last week my family was able to go up to the cabin at bearlake for the 4th. Dane and I knew there was no way he would be able to go so I took some time off work and headed up with my parents and my sister. We left on Wednesday and had a little bit of a rough start, with a blown tire on the boat trailer but once that was fixed it was smooth sailin'! (just a quick side note, I found my Mt Dew Throwback at the Walmart in Evenston and my mom wouldn't let me buy the whole shelf, but I still stocked up!) On Thursday, Chad's family came up and it was really fun to see Zoie, Bryce and Tyler playing on the beach, I think they loved every minute of it! Dane surprised me on Thursday by telling me that he was able to switch his schedule around and he will be able to fly into SLC on Friday morning. Haydn was planning on driving up on Friday so it worked out perfectly and our whole family was at the cabin at the same time...I don't think that has ever happened! Oh and I don't want to forget, Herbie came with us and she loved it too!

We got home from the lake on Sunday night but luckily Dane didn't have to be back at work until Wednesday so we had two more days together. On Monday we decided to make a day of it so while I was at work Dane went with his Grandpa to the farm and got to drive the tractor. Dane absolutely loved it and had so much fun at the farm. I think he would move there if he could :)

After I got off work, we decided to head up to Park City and ride the Alpine Slide. We got there fairly early so the slide and the coaster weren't crowded at all! We tried out the new Alpine Coaster and I really liked it. I liked that you could go as fast as possible without the fear of flying off the track but Dane liked the Alpine Slide better just for the reason that you have the chance of flying off the track. Dane did lose his hat half way down the Alpine Slide so we bought a new one that he is sporting in one of the pictures. I tried not to make this too long but we had a really good time this last week and as Lindsay pointed out to me today, this was the longest Dane and I have seen each other since March...CRAZY!!
