We LOVE camping :)

We went camping last weekend- just the two of us (none of our friends like camping or couldn't go but we went anyway!). We have both been so tied up at work, a break was very much needed- and it was a BLAST! We got to our usual spot along the rim on Friday night and stayed until Sunday afternoon. Despite the invasion of Daddy Long Legs (we both ended up with one on our head at one time or another during the trip- YUCK!) it was one of the best trips I've ever had. There was a beautiful rainbow- you can see it in two of the pictures! We hiked 9 miles on Saturday to Fossil Springs, it rained almost the whole hike which ended up being a blessing, the sun would have been way too much for that trail. The dogs loved swimming in the springs and we found some wild blackberries to snack on along the way. We are hoping we'll get one more trip in before winter, but with how crazy busy things have been we won't hold our breath! xoxo

EXHAUSTED!

Patrick and I both are beat up from working way too much! We have both been working 10-12 hour days.. He's working on getting his SQUID project done for DHS and I've been working at ACS (UOP's certification company) to help them get caught up. Hopefully both our projects will come to an end soon so we can go camping and have some fun! I've been teaching myself to play the cello- when time allows.. I can't wait to get good at it!! I may take some lessons to help speed along my progress :) Other than that- we are planning our end of summer BBQ and I am hosting TJ and Shayla's baby shower- it's a boy! We are so excited to welcome the little guy!! More to come later- kisses!!
