Our Last Week Together as Civilians



So our last week.....
some of it we ended up sick...yes both of us.. but we still had an absolutely wonderful week. Monday and Tuesday = sick. Wednesday we attempted to go to Seven Peaks here in Provo, but it was closed to the public! So we drove around a little bit and decided to go to Bridal Veil Falls...we went to get wet, but when we dipped our feet in it was FreeZing!!!!! So we walked for a little bit and barely started climbing the waterfall then ended up takin off. We then decided to go to Veteran's Memorial pool...we tanned (not that we got very tan, but we tried to reduce our marshmallow white look haha), swam around and dunked each other, and went down slides together. It was really fun! Then we went to the store to get some dinner...we got lasagna, but didn't read directions...we got home at like 6:30 and we were pretty hungry...pulled out the lasagna and read that we had to cook it for 2 hours! yikes! hah....so we cooked it for an hour and then ended up cutting pieces out to eat and microwaving them :) ...it worked well. 
Thursday, getting closer and closer to the day he leaves (AH!), trying to remember what we did.... We met with the sergeant in charge of the recruiting station to make sure my hubby was ready to go. Then we ate at Coney's ... and went to go see Despicable Me!! I LOVED that movie SOOO much!! Devin says i'm like the smallest one...Agnes. haha.He couldn't get over how similar we seemed hhaahaha. After the movie we went to Farr's Fresh Yogurt and then headed up to Sundance to see if we could ride the lift, but we only had 5 minutes left to go so we decided to come back Friday, but we definitely enjoyed walking around and looking at beautiful nature. 
Friday we went back to Sundance http://www.sundanceresort.com/  in the morning and went on the lift up to the top of a mountain .... we got there and started hiking to the waterfall...about halfway we turned around haha (you have to remember we were getting over sicknesses and at this time) ... went back down the lift ... left Sundance and decided to go Costco to get another camera so Devin could take mine to Basic Combat Training. I love pictures and if he has a chance I'm hoping he'll take some!! We also visited CupcakeChic that day...they have awesome cupcakes!!!!! Went home ate lunch and then got ready for Seven Peaks!! finally! except the rain was coming...but luckily the sun was out for a little while when we were there. We ended up getting free dinner out of it and took off right when the storm really hit! :) Went home ate dinner and watched Cars, such a good movie. 


Saturday Devin had to go to a future soldier training for land navigation. The recruiters put together events like that so our future soldiers are ready for it during Basic Training. He said it was good, but the Sergeant decided at the end that they needed to do as many push ups as they could in the amount of time it took him to do 101 push ups! Devin got to 60 and said I'm done ..this really isn't necessary. hahha. I love my husband. We went and visited a friend and then came home... skyped with my in-laws, went to the store, came home and I made him watch a chick flick with me :) (he liked it) ... How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days... 
then it was Sunday.... time for my honey to leave...we packed up all of his stuff and off he went .....
