Get Away…

Hello everyone. It’s Monday again. We had a lovely weekend though. Jer and I celebrate our wedding anniversary. It’s been a long time since we had a night away from the kiddos. We went to Park City, UT, stayed in a nice little condo, had dinner at a fancy shmancy yummy place and went mountain biking in the morning at Deer Valley Resort. They have these lift assisted rides that make it so much fun. Hello, no up hill, people!! That’s my kind of ride. It was way cool. Perfect weather, fun trails. There were some super challenging trails and we both wiped out a few times. They built these man made obstacles. Some bridges, teeter totters, ladders and logs to ride over. My favorites were the trails that weaved through the trees. So Beautiful!! I did get a couple of tire flats. I have said for years that my bike is cursed. It’s true! and I think Jer finally believes me.

The story goes something like this… I had a boy in college that fell head over feet for me. I kept him around for a while because he was way fun but I knew in my heart that he just wasn’t the right one for me. He was so smitten that he bought a bike for me. Crazy, I know. I can’t believe that I accepted it but I did offer to give it back when I finally cut the cord. He didn’t want it. So ever since it has gotten flats when it has to go over any little bump. The bike hates me and it is always a reminder that I hurt someone. Sigh… I’d like to get rid of the thing but my hubby keeps it around and rides it to work for some crazy reason. It even gives him troubles too but a free ride is better then no ride, I guess.

Anyhoo, I took pictures of our trip (I should get some photos of our war wounds; especially Jer’s knees. Yikes! Ouchy!) but Emma carried off my camera and left it in a fabric store this morning. Don’t ask me why I was letting her play with it. I guess I have to go back and get it but hopefully nobody will carry it off. It sure isn’t worth much.
