Dugway Visitors

This past week our good friends from medical school, Josh and Amanda, came to visit us in Dugway! We had not seen them since last Halloween and we were super excited to spend the week with them and for them to meet Cole. The first couple of days we hung out around Dugway. We went to the pool and the guys went golfing (after finding out that the golf course is only open from 5-9pm...classic!). If you ask Amanda what she thinks about Dugway, she'll tell you, "There are no words." She told me on multiple occasions what a wonderful woman I am for living here though they like how quiet it is :) We ate some good food and played a lot of Mexican Train (the first two nights Josh was on fire and went out almost every round, the third night he lost).
On Thursday we got out of Dugway and drove to Park City. We went to the Olympic Park where the guys rode on the nation's steepest zipline, we then went to the outlet mall, and then had a wonderful dinner in Park City after visiting the shops there. It was wonderful getting out of Dugway for a night and waking up in the mountains. Before heading to the airport, we took Cole to the Salt Lake City Zoo and then got some lunch at a local favorite restaurant, Ruth's Diner. It was a wonderful visit and we miss them so much already! We're planning a trip to go see them in Kansas City in the spring.

Lindsay, we had a FABULOUS time!! No joke, even though I still have yet to find the words to describe Dugway! Things I can confirm: 1) Cole did love Josh, it was precious how he just stared at him; 2) We are definitely not future Olympians since we were too chicken to tackle the nation's steepest zip line; and 3) baby wearing is hard, my shoulders were so sore! Miss you!!
