A little getaway

So Sunday night Randy and I went out to wendover for the night to celebrate our 10Th wedding anniversary. I know its a few weeks early, but it is the only weekend we could get away.
Randy is going hunting with his uncles and my dad durning the week of our anniversary and the only two weekends he had off were this weekend and the weekend of the 28Th. But that day is the day our primary is having the program and since I'm the sunbeam teacher I thought I shouldn't miss it.
So we celebrated it almost a moth early. So we dropped the boys off at grandpa and grandma Peterson's until aunt Brenna could get off of work to watch them over night, and then we were off. We try not to go out on Sunday's but sometimes you can't help it.
So we started our day off with eating lunch at citrus grill in draper. The food was great. Then we hit the road. We had a free coupon for the hotel and so we used it and checked in. They put us on the sixth floor. We went to to the room to drop off the bags and look around. We turned the t.v. on and the remote wasn't working so I called the front desk, they said they would send maintenance. We waited around for 30 mins and know one showed so we called back and told them we weren't waiting any longer and they could come in and fix it. So when we came back it still wasn't working so we called again they said they would send someone and told told him we weren't going to await. So we left and got dinner. When we came back for the third time it still wasn't working, so I called again and told them it was the third time we called, they said again they would send someone. Less than five minutes some knocked on the door. They finally fixed it. But Some time in all that waiting I was looking out the window and told Randy that I thought we had a great view. He came over and looked at with me and agreed. he said how from here you could see how the earth is round and how you can't see it anywhere else close around.. It was really wonderful to see something that you don't get to see or ever think about very often.I think the the Utah salt flats are beautiful. How the white salt looks so clean and pure. I just felt at that moment that Heavenly father would make something so spectacular. And I'm' glad I could see something so amazing. To see a pic click on the link to the side and see just how beautiful it is. It was nice to have time with out the boys, even though we love them so very much, but sometimes you want time alone, especially when your boys are at the age when they think mom and dad kissing is gross.
