Anniversary getaway in Ogden

    Last weekend Greg and I went on a little overnight getaway and had the best time, in Ogden of all places. The Best Western we stayed at over 28 years ago has been vastly improved and we got upgraded to a room with a view of their back property oasis. Koi poinds, waterfalls, water features and a beautiful view of the mountains. It was really awesome and who would guess the train tracks are right behind it and the freeway. Anyway, we had a blast and we treated ourselves to a little ring and clothes shopping as well.

 

So pretty!


 


 


 


 


 


My recent ring purchases. Only $2.50 for all but two of them.


And Greg got some much needed new clothes.

    On our way home we took the back/long way and saw views of the mountains we've never seen before and it was awesome. We passed 5 different reservoirs along the way: Pineview, Echo, Rockport, Jordanelle, and Deer Creek. We also stopped and had yummy pizza in Kamas.

    And, of course, we've had lots of fun visits with neighbors on the porch and now we've added hammocking to the mix.

    For our youth activity we got to go to a local driving range and get some fun tips on hitting golf balls. Greg got the hang of it pretty quick, plus, it wasn't his first time, but I struggled!

 


The putting was more my speed.


    And Charlie, along with her primary activity group, had a fun visit with a local beekeeper.
 

    It's finally feeling like summer around here and we're trying not to think about how quickly the days are passing.
