Birthday Getaway!

Remember how Hans surprised me with a trip to Newport for my birthday, but I was too stressed out to go?  Well, girls camp is over and I'm ready to relax!
This whole trip was documented with my phone because I forgot to pack my camera, but I still want to remember it despite the low quality!
It cracked me up, what our versions of beginning a relaxing trip were....
  
We were only gone a few days, but 1st on our list was a day that included massages and some time by the pool, so beautiful! Lucky this was our day for this, because it was cloudy and rainy the rest of the time we were there!
 We went into Huntington Beach and walked the pier and the beach.

 Hans even got us a convertible for the trip!
 While I was there, I was needing to do a 12 mile training run....but I didn't really want to do it alone, so Hans bought a long board and went 10 of it with me, until his calf was spasming! :)
I jumped off a wall for this pick...so happy to be done with the run!

Such a great getaway!  I always feel so renewed and grateful when I take a step out of my normal surroundings!  Thank you Hans, you always know what I need!
I love you and I am LOVING 40!

4th of July

Chloe is a Provo High Cheerleader
Lucky her...she got to be in the parade!


 She was darling hand delivered taffy to sweet Jayne and Josephine!

 The best seat is on the roof....Josie was up there the whole time!
 Hey...he's here with the family, that's all we can ask!
 
 The gang on the roof!

 
Beautiful Dayna and Jayne....our gracious hosts for the parade!  We're so lucky they invite us to their house which is located perfectly on the parade route and in the shade! Thanks Steve and Dayna!
