Opal Creek

We have wanted to go on a back packing trip for a long time now, so this summer we finally made plans to.  Granted it was not a very far back packing trip, but you need to start somewhere right?  We figured we better start small before we can go bigger.  Anyways we had an amazing time on our trip.  We went to a place called Opal Creek in Oregon with Cooper and Jen Trost.  The hike was  about the three miles to the spot we picked to camp out in.  I think we got the best spot out of all the places you could stop at.  This is because right below us was a river that was a few feet off the trail.  This river was the most beautiful river I have ever seen!  It was so clear you could see every little rock in the water. Also the main reason we went to this place is because it had what we called a butt slide.  There was literally a slide made from the water rushing down. Let me tell you the water was soooo cold(this is because it was glacier water run off) I could only get half my body in the whole time.  It was freezing, but this slide was so fun! We have some pictures and video's that turned out pretty good, so I will post those too.  Once we got done playing in the water and sliding down the butt slide, we immediately got a fire going and took off our wet close because we were so cold.  We had a lot of fun making our food and have smores after.   We are those kinds of people that love to just sit by the fire and talk about good old times.  If we could do that every night that we be the best. The next day we went "swimming" again, ate lunch, and then packed up to headed back home.

On hour hike back home we stopped at this one spot that we saw a lot of people coming out of the day before and oh my gosh it was so beautiful.  I will post those pictures at the end of all the butt slide ones. Because the water was so clear hear that the pictures look amazing! I will stop my rambling on about this amazing place now and let you see these amazing pictures of the place.

THE FINAL WEEK

How far along?    39 weeks We are in the final week ladies and gents!! Maternity clothes? Only a few shirts  and a dress. Other than that I just wear leggings, dresses, and some of Michaels shirts. Stretch marks? Not a single one thank goodness! When I was in school I learned in my  Anatomy  and Physiology class that if you start putting on shay butter/coconut oil(I used the Palmers cocoa butter and sometimes add my 100% coconut essentials oil.) two months before getting pregnant, that it will help your skin loosen and become more elastic.  So once we decided to start trying I  immediately  got some lotion and put it on every other day(or you can put it on everyday).  I know that, that is what helped me not get any stretch marks. I cant  guarantee  it will work for everyone, but what I do know is that if you don't start lotioning your skin early, it for sure will not be ready for the  drastic  change that is about to happen. Sleep? I have actually

ANNIVERSARY # 3

If I had my life to live over again, I would find you sooner so that I could love you longer.  Happy Anniversary Michael. I love you so much.  You are my greatest adventure. I couldn't imagine life without you!   This is the beautiful rose I came home to after work! My husband truly is the best.  Little things like this let me know that he is thinking about. In a marriage I feel it is so vital to let your spouse know in anyway you want,  but to just let them know you are thinking of them and that you love them. I made this cutie some yummy breakfast in bed.... .......... After work we headed over to Pizza Pie Cafe in Bountiful. We know its not a typical dinner date for an anniversary, but we LOVE Pizza Pie. They have the best oreo pizza in the world. Seriously though it is one of my favorite places to eat! After our wonderful dinner at Pizza Pie, we headed up the mountain to go shoot our new gun. We had to get ther
