Tubing and Shopping

On Saturday, we went to Soldiers Hollow to try out their tubing resort! It was a lot of fun. You buy a 2 hour pass and grab a tube. They have 7 tubing lanes/tracks. Some are a little faster than others. They also have a tow lift so you don't have to walk up the hill. We probably got 6 or 7 runs in. It was more fun to go together because we could get going faster. There were longer straps coming off the tubes so they could hook onto the tow. Jon would hold the strap from my tube and we would use a sling shot-type action to get more speed. He would push me away then he would get pulled closer and vice versa. It was a lot of fun. We raced once and....I won! :) Maybe it was the spinning action? I kept turning around..but really I think my lane was faster.



Then we went back to the room to get ready to go to Park City. We went to the traditional Dairy Keen for lunch. And headed off to Park City! There were some FANTASTIC sales!! I got a pair of Calvin Klein Jeans for $25! (I actually don't know how good that is..I hope it is...I NEVER shop...) The coolest thing though...they fit me!!! Wow it has been a lot time since I have had a pair of jeans that fit me the way they are supposed to.

We hit a lot of stores and I think we were there for 3 hours! It was so fun. No kids+cash!

So in the end I got 3 new outfits, a pair of shoes (Jon got some too, buy 1 get one 1/2 off), sun glasses, and a hat. And we got the boys a pair of sunglasses...we had to bring something back for them. Oh, and Bath and Body Works Shampoo and Conditioner for $1.89 each!

My hair was soo static-y when trying on clothes so I had to braid it to make it more manageable.


Then we ordered pizza hut to our room and watched the first season of "Lost" til 3:00am.

It was a great trip! And so fun to talk about how far we have come in the last 6 years, how we have changed for the better, and how excited we are for the rest of our future! I love you Jon, thanks for sharing your life with me!

  1. Sounds like you guys had a great time, it's so nice to get away from the kids I'm sure and spend time together just the two of you. Congratulations on making it 6 years, hehe.
