Valentines in Moab

It was the weekend of love! And it came at the perfect moment because it was a 3-day weekend and I had Monday of work and school! That Saturday we decided to stay in, Travis built us a fort and we watched moved and had Chinese take out for dinner.

We also exchanged gifts, Travis got me a cooking apron I’ve been begging for since we got married cause I love to cook and bake and can make such a mess sometimes. I got Travis the 5 senses, smell was cologne he’s been wanting, taste were donuts from beyond glazed- yum!!!, sound were some Shel Silverstein poems about love that I read for him, touch was some massage oil, and sight, well let’s just say it was something for his eyes only X)

Sunday came and we were ready for our 3 hour trip to Moab! Trav drove most of the way as usual, he’s just so great like that, and after driving through beautiful canyons and valleys covered in snow we finally arrived! It was too early to check-in to the hotel, so we decided to walk down main st. after getting some lunch at subway and visited the cute little boutiques and souvenir shops. Once at the hotel we decided to spend the rest of the evening in the hot tub which was completely vacant and watching some cool shows on HBO!

The next day the real adventure began, and after out continental breakfast we headed out bright and early to Arches National Park! It was Travis’ first time (even though he’s lived here all his life) and I was so excited to share it with him. We saw Balanced Rock, the Windows, and the infamous Delicate Arch. The weather was cool, but sunny making the hikes absolutely perfect. Getting to Delicate Arch was a little sketchy cause part of the trail was covered in ice, but we made it! We were also able to bust-out the go-pro we got for Christmas and it works awesome! Overall, it was an amazing day, and after some good Mexican food we made the drive back to the bustling town of Provo. Going on little adventures like this is what I live for, I can’t wait for the spring to come so we can experience the great outdoors again!
