chapter 2... salt lake city, brent and i


Monday morning the martindales were off to go back to mesa and we were up early to hike mt timp. It was a very steep hike and since we are used to sea level, utah hiking made our hearts almost jump out of our chests because of the elevation, nonetheless we had a lot of fun, and I love being inside the 3 caves… so cooooollllldddddd….




us at the top of mt. timpanogos...




ashley, this picture is for you... until you are able to go... "the heart"



cabellas... our first time there… thanksgiving point for lunch and then… dinner we met up with my g & g mikesell, tina and kids, and lynette and kids to go to training table… later that night we went to the thai pan trading co. then down east homes… brent found some joes jeans for me and i got them for only $25 i was so surprised….




...this is two of tinas kids... they found our sunglasses and were having way too much fun...




We had fun staying at the red lion hotel, which was right downtown salt lake city… perfect for going everywhere we wanted… Tuesday we went to olive garden for lunch… then the temple to do a live session… which was awesome… our first time…



...then later that night we went to the gateway to shop, flemings for dinner and oceans 13... and those of you who know me... know that i dont like red meat... but brents steak was honestly and sincerely the best steak i have ever had in my whole life... i had more than one bite... my salmon was really good too... now i am hungry...





if you have not been to gateway and are planning to be in salt lake any time, it is such a great place, they have everything, from great restaurants to awesome shopping... the clark planetarium and a movie theather, ect.... plus one of the workers there told me that they are going to be building an urban soon...



wednesday… we got a new camera… which explains why i all of a sudden have pictures from this point on… our other camera just stopped working… we just explored salt lake city and found the distribution center… i was lucky enough to get a hold of ashley and go to dinner with her… we went to one of my favorites, california pizza kitchen… good times… brent also, at the same time, met up with 2 of his mission companions and went to dinner… z tejas...


thursday... we went to sundance to ride the alpine slide and zip line... then up another canyon to park city... i love downtown park city and the outlet shopping... it was so fun and the weather was perfect...

the zip line is right above brent in this picture...


ready to ride the alpine slide....


waiting for turn at the zip line....


we met my mom for dinner later that night at thaifoon ... thai food... i love thai food... then bens cookies for dessert... yummy.. thanks for the recommendation ashley...
