Belated Vday Post

Michelle got us a groupon for a sleigh ride in Park City back in December and as usual, life became busy and so we didn't use it until right before it expired, which happened to be the day before Valentine's Day. We realized this coincidental timing when we got there which made this adventure even more hilarious to us. Because of that, we decided to go all out and make it an early Valentine's Day celebration since we both know that we would be carrying on the yearly tradition of celebrating it solely with one another. If you knew how much fun we had together, you'd know there is no sympathy needed...just jealously for the amount of laughter and good times we had.

Standing in front of one of the sleighs before taking off!

Part of our scenic tour, I just found this to be funny...you know  how I do, laugh at things most people don't think are that funny. Michelle at least pity laughed, which is another reason why she is so awesome.

Beautiful scenery along the ride

The many faces of Michelle, how can you not laugh for hours when you're around her??

Aw, she's so pretty-ful :)


We were jealous of that sleigh ride behind us...the driver told stories and kept them entertained. Ours decided speaking was not going to happen from his side so we awkwardly talked and giggled in the back as we looked around and took pictures.

Oh and then there's me...our driver was very happy to stay put for picture time, can't you tell?

We decided to go out to dinner too, it was Vday afterall. Maybe the news of how much we eat got out to the restaurant world because the PF Changs staff gave us a  HUGE booth to sit at while sharing our 4 course feast :)

I apparently like to pretend people are actually sitting with me to put my arms around

This picture says it all - we ate WAY too much food and we paid for it. Not money-wise since we got a great Vday deal but tummy ache-wise. Still, so worth it. 

Now my lovely Valentine/best friend/sister will be leaving me in a few days to move to California for a new job and to answer everyone's questions that you've been asking/wondering once and for all: NO, it is not okay...NO, we are not handling it well...YES, we have cried multiple times already and have pits in our stomachs daily knowing how hard it will be...YES, I'm crying as I write this...but YES, it is the right thing for Michelle to do so we'll have to push through and become frequent fliers/have a countdown until I can move out to paradise with her!

  1. That would be AWESOME if you moved to "paradise" with Michelle!!! I'm assuming she's moving to So. Cal (preferably the wonderful San Diego) if you're referring to it as paradise, right?! Now if I can just convince my hubby to move back there from AZ that would be a dream come true!

  2. HAHAHA what a fun valentine's day! Way better than how we spent ours. It must be so bittersweet to say goodbye to one another. I love how close the two of you are. I hope my girls are close like that too. Good luck Michelle!
