Birthday Week-end...


David and I were both so ready for this week-end get-away and a mini-v.k. was much needed. I decided around Christmas that I would take a few days off work to spend our birthday's in Jackson w/David, I was afraid he was going with or without me! We left Friday afternoon and finally made it after a little adventure on the pass. We were sliding sideways down hill (we were suppose to be going up the hill) I was asleep in the back seat w/Jeral when I felt him jump, heard David suck a huge breath in, and opened my eyes in time to see my dad looking back at me as we were going off the road. Luckily, my dad is a good driver and straightened us out just in time then decided to put the truck in 4-wheel drive- good call! It was a beautiful day once we got to Jackson, we checked in to our motel and went to the hill to check it out. We walked through the vendors and Dave decided on Merry Piglet's for his birthday dinner!

Saturday was my birthday and boy do I take advantage of it! I made everyone let me sleep in as long as I wanted and told David if he was going to wake me up it better be with a nice massage, this is my day to be spoiled and get whatever I want, whenever I want it dang it!! So we slept in a bit, ate continental breakfast weird it's my favorite and I would rather have it in the A.M. than any homemade pancake plus it's free... well pretty much! After we got ready we headed to Snow King were the hill climbs are, we brought our camping chairs which worked great in the snow and sat and enjoyed our day watching the sleds race up the mountain. I got brave and decided I wanted to take the chair lift all the way to the top... that is further up than it looks and I was mostly scared the whole ride and didn't look out, down, or behind us!! We got Pizza Hut for my birthday dinner and hit the candy shop for sour peach candy, an amazing $4 brownie, and Cookies 'n Cream fudge!! It was a great birthday!!

We even saw Sasquatch on the Chairlift :)

Just before we were headed home... all 3 of us sun burnt!!!

Luke/Jason concert...

Yes, I know it's been a long time since I've blogged but with good reasoning: I wanted to make sure that everyone knew just how upset I was with our tax situation this year so I left it up plenty long :) Which still upsets me and I just know I am going to get a "Sorry we messed up and here's all the money you paid in plus some" letter because it's not right to take 30% of our checks and we still have to pay... there must have been a horrible mix up- still convinced of it.
On another note:
My mother-in-law, sis-in-law and I went to the Jason Aldean concert on Sunday and it was so much fun! Oh how I love concerts w/ my fam and amazingly hot country singers with amazing voices and cute butts :) Needless to say I liked Luke Brian (Bryan?) a lot, a lot! He is super fun and love his songs but he had the ugliest pants on... dang it, why did he do that to us? Tricia and I decided his pockets were too big and it made his butt look flat and like he had girl pants on- not attractive!! But skinny jeans, cowboy boots and a button down shirt- what's not to love?

Then there was Jason Aldean, which I have always adored, which almost makes me sound creepy!! I've always though he was a major case of eye candy, when he came out he was behind a curtain so all you could see was his body and cowboy hat and I knew this one may top Kenny Chesney, then the curtain dropped and out he came singing looking like no one other than: MY BROTHER IN LAW DANIEL!!! NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was disappointed instantly, and kept thinking to myself it's Jason not Daniel, stare at him, he's famous, and hot- but nope that brother-in-law image never left. UGH! When I saw Daniel yesterday I even saw the resemblance... not that I think my brother-in-law is sexy or anything it's more like the way he dressed, and acted, and talked, and facial expressions. Minus, the small detail I really enjoyed the concert- thanks for taking me Patty and Tricia :)

David and I only have 3 more days of work then off to the Jackson Hill Climbs to celebrate our birthdays :) Looking forward to the time off work and enjoying the cold weather with my hubby (& dad & bro) :)
