Birthday Biking

Eric and I both had great birthdays this year. With our birthdays falling in the fall we love to go biking. The temperatures are cooler and the colorful leaves in the mountains makes it so beautiful. Our birthdays are only a couple of weeks apart, so a lot of times we do something that combines the two. This year we decided we needed a bike trailer to tote our little guy around with us. I found a Chariot on KSL for a fraction of the price. I would argue that it's one of the best gifts we've gotten ourselves. It has been so fun to ride as a family. For Eric's birthday we rode on the new Murdock Canal Trail and had a picnic. That trail is gonna be a hit. You might just see me and Heber on it everyday next year.

birthdays

know it's a little late for this, but i felt like i should document it anyway. This year all i wanted for my birthday was a bike ride. And Eric granted my wish. It was great. Eric turned 30 this year so I gave him a bunch of things in the quantity of 30. He especially liked my tower of 30 Diet Mtn. Dews!!

Make me a cake...

We both had birthdays this fall. Eric was very kind to me and spoiled me a bit too much. (I was ok with it though). We spent the weekend up in Park City to celebrate both birthdays since they are only a couple weeks apart. Dinner at Zoom... so Eric could get some ceviche that is soooo divine there. Gallery stroll, Trolly ride, a run through the country side in the morning and plenty of zzzz's. Perfect.
I can hardly believe we are the age we are. Not that we don't deserve it. But time is flying by. I am so grateful for Eric, he means the world to me and every year I love him more. 
We both had great birthdays this year with lots of love from family and friends. We are blessed.

Ho Down

Eric had to work for his birthday. He had to cover the Hootenanny Fundraiser in Park City. It was ok though cuz there was a mechanical bull and a delicious BBQ. Plus, the dress code turned out to match our attire for later that evening- the Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt concert. (Eric's always wanted to see Lyle perform.) I loved it too if that even matters. Both guys up on stage acoustic style with the most handsome voices. I didn't know John wrote a bunch of songs for Bonnie Raitt and Emmy Lou Harris. (some of my favorites.) If you get the chance you should listen to them. So of course-we went home with inspiration to pull out the guitar and uke:)

Older and Wiser

Last week we celebrated my birthday up at Sundance. It was beautiful up the canyon with all the leaves changing and the air getting crisper. This is my favorite time of year. Not only is it gorgeous outside, but i get presents too:)

I think I need to always live close to the mountains... they've been part of my life for 24 years. Now how could I abandon them?
