Capitol Reef

Earlier this month, John and I went to Capitol Reef for the weekend. Even with the government shutdown, we had a great time! We got to see a lot of really cool stuff, relax, eat delicious food, go hiking and see a lot of cool rock formations. It was beautiful!

A New Addition to our Family

Before you freak out by the title of this post, don't worry...I am NOT pregnant. John and I recently adopted a really sweet little kitty. But in all honesty, she adopted us. We were out walking by the lake one night and saw a cat, so we stopped to pet it, and then it followed us home. And the crazy this is we were at least a half mile from home! Anyway, we ended up feeding her and now she won't leave. Whenever we put her outside, she always comes back that evening. We named her Fate, as in it was fate that she found us.

We took her to the vet and found out she LOVES car rides!

Such a sweetie!

She loves all her toys.

Moon Lake!

Back in August, me, John and my grandparents went to Moon Lake for a long weekend. We stayed in a very cute but very rustic cabin. It was so fun! We went fishing, horseback riding, hiking, for a long drive where we saw a million deer (and a BADGER!) and relaxed. Here's some pics from our fun weekend:

Moon Lake...as you can see, it was really low!

Look, it's John!

Aren't my grandparents cute?
