Memorial Weekend Road Trips! Part 1

Mike and I got to have an unplanned mini anniversary get-away over the weekend when a friend invited us to her wedding in St. George. We already have an anniversary trip planned but decided to take advantage and enjoy it. So right after school on Friday, we met Papa in Spanish Fork to take the kiddo's home with him and we were off for a long drive together. It was a pleasant drive just talking and enjoying the scenery as well as enjoying a long drive together with no kids screaming in the back seat. What a treat!
We arrived in St. George and to the villa that my step-brother had hooked us up with (thanks Mike!) and after we were situated, we headed off to a pre-wedding bbq for the bride and groom at a local park. Although unusually chilly for St. George, we managed to have a good time visiting with the happy couple, some of their family and some old friends of mine as well as snapping a pre-wedding selfie with the bride.
The day of the wedding, we had some time to kill in the morning, so we set off to do some shopping and had a nice lunch date together. Then it was wedding time! We enjoyed the ceremony and wished the newlyweds well. Then snuck out during the luncheon (since we had previously eaten) to enjoy a movie together with a parents of some old friends of mine.  We saw Pitch Perfect 2 which was hilarious. Then we headed back to the reception where we got to visit some more with the bride and groom and spent some time being silly with them and taking silly- secret pics of us up to shenanigans for me to send her later for a laugh.







We had a great time and both commented many times to each other about how we were glad we went. Thanks Reva for the invite to share in your and Robert's special day!

 After we left we enjoyed the quietness of the villa again with a drink on the balcony under the stars.
 I sure love this man and enjoy every minute of alone time we get together.
