Red Hot Nature

Happily ever after...well, not always! But when you have your best friend to share every day with, how can life not always be great? By focusing all our energy on each other, we're creating a marriage that will last through the eternities. We have created this blog to share our lives with our family, friends, and the future family we'll create together. "Marriage is a gift from God to us. The quality of our marriages is a gift from us to him." ~Elder L. Whitney Clayton

First "Legit" Zipline

For Valentine's day I bought passes for each of us to do the zipline up Provo Canyon in the summer/fall.  We only had until September 30 to use them up, so I finally got them all scheduled for Saturday (9/14).  It was actually really fun...especially because I got them 50% of the normal price. BAM! Now that's a deal!

There were a lot of little kids in our group and it was kind of funny because the group had around 11 people in it, and the other 9 people in our group were all family. They were really nice though and even took pictures and video for us. Hopefully the lady will email those to us soon! 

The zipline is actually 5 separate lines that equal out to be about 1 mile of zipline and you actually have to brake on the line and stop yourself at the end or you'll smack into the trees.  The scenery was beautiful and it was such perfect weather.  We were worried we would end up getting struck by lightning or something because it was forecasted at like 60% chance of rain and was down pouring in Payson when we left.  It was perfect fall, sunny weather though.

Our guides were really fun too. The one was actually an RM that spoke Dutch but went to the West Indies. He called it a "Caribbean Dutch."  He took some pictures for us with his phone and texted them to us as well.  It was a little weird though because he had hippie sandals on and painted toenails. He was a definite "granola" type person, but actually really a great tour guide and a lot of fun.
