1. I was getting so sick of the cold weather and inversion in SLC
2. I really needed a vacation from work (January is the busiest month of the year at the bank)
3. I don't think I had spent more than 10 min outdoors since September
4. I needed to spend some quality time with Stephen.
Even though we could only be gone for 3 days, we definitely made good use of our time. Here are some of the things we did...
1. Played tennis twice
2. I went for a run
3. Went to Vegas Saturday for shopping an dinner at Trevi in Cesar's Palace
4. Went for a hike/walk behind Stephen's Parent's house in beautiful 59 degree weather
5. Slept in
6. Watched Despicable Me on redbox
7. I also watched several reality TV shows including Teen Mom 2, the X life, and cut off. (i don't know why i love these shows so much. ha ha) while Stephen watched football.
It was a greeeeeat weekend, just what i needed.
Here are a few other things that made my birthday especially great...
1. Birthday wishes from friends and family
2. Going to dinner with my Family tonight
3. Birthday card from my Grandma (she never misses a year!)
4. Lush messed up on my Christmas order, so I got a buy one get one free credit and bought all the things i wanted for myself for my birthday. he he.
5. Stephen got me a subscription to the Economist
6. Stephen also got me a platter from John Derian, a designer we discovered in NYC a few years ago and fell in love with. He did a line for target that came out in the fall, but we love the things from his store more.
I know this blog post is boring with all lists and no pictures--I kept meaning to take pictures but was too busy having a great relaxing weekend. I am excited to go out to dinner with my girlfriends next week for more birthday fun! Thanks for the wonderful birthday friends and family.
