Anniversary Weekend - 6/25-6/28

Last weekend we celebrated our anniversary by using my Aunt and Uncle's cabin in Fruitland, Utah.  They are so nice to have let us use it!  We loved it down there.
You might remember this cabin from this post last year.  I went up last year with my family but Howie couldn't make it.  But this time we had it all to ourselves!  We made the most out of it and took up some yummy food to make while we were there.  The first night we had homemade french bread pizza.
The next morning I made us some pancakes, eggs and turkey bacon. (50% less fat!)


We played some Wheel of Fortune.  Howie is a little bit of a sore loser when it comes to this game.  It's not my fault I'm so good at it!
Then we took one of the 4-wheelers for a spin.  Howie rode on the back of one first because he wasn't sure he wanted to drive one himself.  He had a scary experience on one a long time ago and it has ruined him.  But, we had fun riding it together.
We headed back to the cabin for some lunch after our ride.  Howie was kind enough to grill us up some beef patties.

Howie wanted to take a nap so, I took a 4-wheeler off-roading.
When I got back he was ready to try one out himself!  Ladies and gentlemen, feast your eyes upon this blessed photo because I did NOT think I would ever see the day...
He had fun on it.  He told me it was not as bad as he thought it would be.  I'm so glad!  I really enjoy them so, I'm glad he does, too.
Back at the cabin, we enjoyed a delicious chicken caesar salad over a game of Mancala.
And then the activity I looked forward to the most...S'mores!
Howie built us a lovely fire.

It was fun sitting, chatting and star gazing by the fire.  Perfect evening.
The last morning we were there we enjoyed some french toast and juice for breakfast.
We had an awesome time at our home away from home.  I hope they'll let us use it again!

On our actual anniversary (June 28th) we went to eat at The Melting Pot!



Happy Anniversary, babe!

Aw, happy anniversary you guys! What a great idea to celebrate up at a cabin! You guys look like you had so much fun. I must have that chicken ceasar salad recipe. It looks YUMMY! I'm glad Howie was able to enjoy the 4-wheeler. I have similar issues about jet skis, so I know exactly how he feels! :)
