Anniversary!

We were able to celebrate our 5th anniversary this weekend with a little getaway to St. George! We did a session in the St. George temple, went out to dinner to Olive Garden (sadly, I was extremely nauseated during dinner so we had to cut it short), and stayed in a hotel with a heated indoor swimming pool (we had the pool all to ourselves!) The next day we attended the marriage and sealing of Alan's cousin Jordan in the St. George temple, so that was a fun way to remember our wedding day as well.

I love this candid shot from our wedding day. Notice the snow!

The best part of the weekend was that we were able to enjoy some time to ourselves without dragging Jared along! My parents were so sweet to watch Jared for us, despite their busy schedules and my dad feeling yucky from chemotherapy. Thanks, Mom and Dad! It was also nice to be gone long enough to have an opportunity to "miss" being with Jared. :) I was really excited to see him when we got home.

We loved having the Buddy for 2 whole days. He was an angel. When are you going away again?

I'm so glad it turned out well, all except the nausea of course. I think St. George is a perfect getaway for parents!

That sounds like a wonderful weekend, except for the nausea. Happy 5 years!
