Before I tell you about my weekend, let me start by saying that I lost 3 pounds this week!! :D
Saturday was our anniversary, but we celebrated all weekend. On Friday, we went out to dinner at this great Italian restaurant. Then we went to see Inception, since everyone is raving about it on Facebook these days. It was my first IMAX! The movie was great, and the company was better.
On Saturday, we slept in and had a relaxing day at home. We played Mario together and watched a couple of movies, and then went swimming at night.
I was sick yesterday, so I just chilled in bed all day and watched movies. Jed made me dinner and then we played some more Mario (it's really fun on the Wii, even though I suck really bad).

Monday Memoirs - Anniversary Edition
Friday - Our new radar detector came in the mail, I highlighted my hair for the first time in years, and Jed got his hair cut after work.
We headed up to Park City for our anniversary, checked in to our condo, and went to dinner. We went to Red Banjo Pizza. It was really good, and not too expensive for Main Street.
We went to the hot tub for about a half hour and it was SO nice!
Saturday - We went to the pool first thing in the morning, during the "adult swim". The pool was heated and very peaceful in the morning. We were the only ones there for most of the time.
We went on the ski lift (apparently also known as the "people mover") up to the Canyons Resort and looked around for a bit. There was a mountain biking race going on, so we sat at the finish line for a minute or two.
While we were at the top, I went in to the bathroom and left Jed on the couch in the lobby of some building. When I came out, I walked over to him and stood in front of him, waiting for him to stand up. I guess I wasn't really paying attention because the guy I was standing in front of was an old man. Jed was nowhere to be seen. So I apologized to him and he just looked at me stone-cold - no expression and he didn't say anything. It was really weird and I know he wasn't deaf or mute. So I went outside and waited for Jed, who apparently went in to the bathroom too.
We went over to the Olympic Park because we had gotten free tickets for the alpine slide and zipline with our condo. As we were walking to the rides, we walked by the practice pool for ski jumps. We sat and watched for a while - I could have been there all day. It was so interesting to watch these guys in swimming suits and life jackets doing flips with snowboards and skis on.
We went on the alpine slide first and I went slow the whole time because the last time I rode one (the day after my wedding) I was racing Jeff and tipped my sled over and got a huge chunk of skin taken out of my arm. So I was a bit nervous.
We upgraded to the higher zipline and I'm so glad we did - it's the steepest one in the world, or so the guy told us. We flew down the mountain! I beat Jed by a landslide. :)
We had dinner at Spencer's Grill for dinner. It was ok, but nothing special. I don't see us going back to that one.
After dinner, we went to the outlet malls for some shopping. I got some new tops and a couple pairs of flip flops, and Jed got some body wash and a belt so that he can wear his belt buckles that he never gets to wear.
We went back to the hot tub that night and watched Friday Night Lights.
Sunday - We woke up to the maid tapping on the door and then starting to open it. Awkward...
We drove around the ritzy areas and looked at some of the houses. A lot of them are big for regular homes, let alone winter houses. I guess that's why a handful of them were up for sale - people can't afford them anymore.
We were waiting for the bus to take us to the Kimball Arts Festival on Main Street, and this lady with a huge dog comes up and asks if we think the driver will let the dog on. And then she talked to us for a while, about weird things - and she was talking to herself. Then she realized that Main Street wasn't far and that she could walk there as fast as the bus takes. Ok lady...
We didn't know the festival cost money, so we were sorely surprised to have to shell out $20 just to look at the booths. :\ Everything was way overpriced, or so we thought. But it was pretty fun. I bought a Park City moose charm at a standing store and then I bought Tom and Jeff something that I thought they would like. My Christmas shopping is done. :)
We went to Burger King for lunch. Classy, yes. Then we drove in to SLC and went to Liberty Park. We hung out there for a few hours, reading and playing on the computer, and people-watching, until it was time to go to my grandparents' house for dinner. Emily and her boys were there, which was fun. Before they left, Jed and I took the boys down to the duck pond to see the ducks. Jed was so good with the boys - he's going to be a great dad.
Monday - I went to the Hogle Zoo with my grandpa, Emily, and her boys today. It was a lot of fun. I think the boys had a good time. We rode the carousel and the train. There was a baby giraffe - 3 days old - it was so cute!

One Year
Today is my first anniversary!! Yay!
I love Jed more and more each day. So I guess that means I love him x365?
We've spent the week at Bear Lake with my mom's family. It was so fun to spend every day at the beach, waverunning and boating. We had such a good time!
This evening, we're heading up to Park City to spend the next few days at a resort, relaxing even more! I can't wait!!
Pictures to come... Have a great weekend!! (I know I will!) :D

Monday Memoirs
On Saturday, we went and stuffed ourselves at Tucanos with Amanda and Adam. That place is SO good. And apparently it's like half-off for their lunch buffet. Good to know. :)
After lunch, we all went back to our house and played Wii all afternoon! It was fun to have other people to play with besides just ourselves. Well stretching your stomach and playing the Wii all day make you tired, so Jed and I took a nap before we went grocery shopping at this new, cheap grocery store right down the street from us. It's called Buy Low Market. We like the fact that we don't have to drive super far for cheap groceries anymore. Woo!
Did I mention that Saturday was our six month anniversary? Well, it was. To celebrate, Jed took me out to this adorable little Italian place I've been wanting to go to called Gloria's Little Italy. It was a little pricey (about $13 per person) but the portions were large enough for two meals' worth. And the food was phenomenal! Both dinners we got were incredible. They even had live performances - a harpist and an Italian a capella singer. And then we got a scoop of cookies & cream gelato. Perfection. :D
After church on Sunday, we made 'breakfast dinner' together and soaked up the time we had with each other. I also grated a block of cheese we got at Costco - 26+ cups of cheese for $10! And then I made 7-layer dip for the Super Bowl.
The Super Bowl was intense and really fun to watch! I'm glad the Steelers won because that's who I chose to root for this year. :) The commercials were so lame and not even worth watching. None of them stood out to me. Very disappointing.
And that's what we did this weekend. Riveting, isn't it? ;)
