life has been a little crazy lately.
the pregnant girl i was supposed to be replacing at work, in august, went into early labor.
and - long story short - my office flew chet and i to calgary so i could start working right away.
it is so fun to be working again.
and chet is having a great time with his cousins.
but we sure miss matt.
i'm so happy that we had a fun long weekend together before i left.
we spent the long weekend in salt lake because i had signed up for a run down there on july 4th.
the freedom half marathon.
it was tough. but i'm so glad i did it.
{if you couldn't already tell, i stole this picture from a website. but, it's of me, so i feel entitled to it!}
the run ended at the capitol building. it was very patriotic!
we went back and walked around the grounds later on that day.
we did all sorts of other fun things throughout the weekend.
we got together with our friends, nate and katie.
we ate out at fun restaurants.
we visited temple square. it's tradition.
we played at legacy park... several times.
the boys swam at our hotel.
and, of course, we celebrated july 4th.
we planned on watching fireworks at a park but chet was too grouchy.
so we decided to watch them from our hotel window instead.
our room was facing south from the 14th floor in down town salt lake, so we were really hoping we would be able to see a couple shows in the distance.
but we were shocked when we could see more then THIRTY different fireworks shows at once.
honest. over thirty. i counted!
it was amazing.
july 4th is my new favorite holiday :)
it was one very fun weekend.
we wore chubby chet right out.
