Ansley and her super cute nursery.
She has this great "always intrigued" look that is too funnyand way cute (is that word overused?
It just always seems like the right one to use :)
Ever since Nick has visited Salt Lake he's wanted to hike Mt. Olympus - the mountain in our previous post. It's a HUGE hike - lots of elevation gain very quickly and a good 4 miles one way.Concerned, perhaps, by our ambition to hike Mt. O (seeing as how we live and walk at sea level), some friends told us to try this hike as a warm-up, so we did. Lake Blanche up Big Cottonwood Canyon - about 2 3/4 miles one way - the highest point is about 9,000 feet. We went on this hike yesterday and had an amazing time! We got to traipse through snow, and see Cottonwood blow gently in the breeze (we felt like we were in the Chronicles of Narnia, or something).
Today, we are remembering our amazing time by being slightly unable to walk :-). Two pairs of sore legs. Tomorrow is supposed to be our day to hike Mt. Olympus...hmmmm...."to hike or not to hike, that is the question" (really, it's what Hamlet meant to say).P.S. as an update, I have not been able to bring myself to eat any garlic since my garlic spree (wouldn't that be the worst flavor of the candy?!) earlier this month.

Sean would love garlic sprees. I would not.
I think I will most definitely stow away next time you go home... what a beautiful place! Glad to see your new posts... not that I've been very good keeping up w/ my own. Not feeling very inspired lately. I have added a couple new recipes, though. :) Miss you and can't wait to catch up!
Mama, she is SO stinkin' cute! I am so impressed with your hiking ambitions! Way to go, guys! Can't wait to hear about it!
