Zermatt Resort and Prom

Dan had a two-day work conference in Midway, Utah at the Zermatt Resort and Spa mid April.  I tagged along just like I did two years ago.  Last year Dan, and subsequently I, were not able to attend the conference due to his incredibly busy schedule of grad school.  This time, it was the first time we left Ben overnight (at 15 months).  A BIG thanks to Dan's mom for watching our little monkies!  They had a blast!  Dan's work payed for one night, but we payed for the second and made it a little Anniversary get-away.  May 3rd we celebrated 6 years of wedded bliss!  We went to dinner at a lovely steak house in Heber called Claim Jumper.  Dan was in the beginning stages of shaving off the beard, so please forgive his facial hair. However, he did fit in with the rural crowd up there :)
 The beautiful resort!  

Other Highlights:
  • Attending one of the classes at Dan's work symposium.  
  • Dinner with Dan's co-workers.
  • Taking naps anytime I wanted to. :)
  • Being able to sleep in AND work out
  • Having a few peaceful meals with NO kids 
  • A one hour, heavenly, massage!  Happy Anniversary to me!  
  • Watching a movie for free on cable TV in the hotel room
  • Catching up on blogging and emails
  • Catching up on some mending
 The day we got back, a young woman in our ward threw her second (awesome!) Spring Prom for the adults in the ward as part of one of her YW personal progress projects.  We had a FUN dinner group before where everyone brought an Asian style dish.  So yummy! 

I have a tendency to kind of let loose when I hear good dancing music.  What can I say?  I can't help myself.    Dan thought it was quite amusing to take pictures.  :)
  Sometimes all it takes is one person (myself in this instance) making a "fool" of themselves to help others put on their dancing shoes too! 
 There was even a cute backdrop for photos.  Dan had tried to jump and land in my arms.  Not so successful love, sorry.
 That's better.  
 They drew names for the Prom King and Queen, which happened to be our dear Bishop and his wife!
Such a fun weekend!

First, Happy Anniversary! Second, Dan's facial hair experiments are frightening! Third, you always did know how to bust a move and get the party started.
