Our friends Shauna & Doug were nice enough to let us use their room up at Vail Resort for the weekend when they couldn't make it. We had such a fun weekend exploring and swimming.
The pool was awesome, it was right next to the river so you could swim and watch the river at the same time!
Watching the hail storm
This was a crazy hail storm! Denver weather is so weird.

The boys toughed it out so we could still have dinner... dutch oven!
Shauna is our good friend, and the wife of Doug Brown - one of my buddies from high schoolJake turned 26! I surprised him with a flight lesson and a day of hanging out in Boulder. It was soo much fun and I think he had a good day. Boulder is such a fun town! Later that night we went to Hibachi with Jake's parents.
Jake's lil' sis came for a visit and to check out Johnson & Wales culinary school. Dash loves her and so do we. Unfortunately the sky decided to dump an obscene amount of snow on Denver and we were stuck inside for 4 days!
We headed to SLC for General Conference and for Jake to get some work done at University Hospital. We got to spend some time with Jake's family and I also got to stop by and catch up with one of my favorite people (and former mission companion) Michelle. We also went up to Layton for a couple hours so we could visit two of my favorite relatives, my aunt Florence and my uncle Verd.
Checking out the view from our hotel..
Dash and I had lots of time to wander around while Jake was working so we walked to Temple Square and took a tour of the Conference Center. It's soo pretty! We ate lunch at a Thai restaurant by our hotel but it didn't look like lunch, it looked like what Dash left on the bathroom rug earlier that morning!
We had tickets to the Sunday sessions of conference. It was the first time I've ever been and I loved it! It's alot easier to stay awake when you're actually there! Jake's been so many times but it was our first time going together.
Michelle Hansen Misener & me - we were comps for 6 whole months! 
Her adorable Amanda meeting Dash for the first time.
I have a special connection with my Uncle Verd. He's a free spirit and he gets me. Dash finally got to meet him!
