We've started putting our Pass of All Passes to work for us and went on a double date with Allison and Mike a couple weeks ago. First we went to this super cute little restaurant in American Fork called Cravings Bistro where they serve amazing grilled cheese sandwiches. David and I shared a tomato basil soup and a turkey, bacon, avocado grilled cheese plus "The" Gourmet sandwich which had artichoke, spinach, sun dried tomatos, feta, and cheddar cheese. My mouth is watering thinking about that one. 

Then we headed over to Trafalga's in Lehi and played a round of mini golf. I'm happy to report everyone got a least one hole in one... and I also almost hit a random stranger in the head with a ball. Don't worry, it missed.

On our way back we stopped at Cravings Bistro cupcake place in Pleasant Grove (owned by the sister of the gourmet grilled cheese Cravings Bistro). The owner of the cupcake place won Cupcake Wars on Food Network. 

David came up to me today and told me he thinks he should quit his job and I shouldn't go back to school in the fall because we are so good at disc golf we should pursue a joint career.

.... hahahaha, just kidding. After the crazy disc golf game we recently played that's not even close to the realm of reality. David was actually the one who introduced me to disc golf- the first time we went we were dating or engaged, I don't remember. But once I figured out it was a sport where I didn't have to run and we got to walk around a pretty park, I was sold. We've gone a couple times now this spring and though we may have improved a bit, I wouldn't say we've mastered the sport by any means.

So to continue our playing outside trend, we headed to Bicentennial Park in south Provo to play some disc golf again.

This time though, we did it for FHE with Karl and Amanda (yay cousin doubles). They had some discs from their wedding and we have a couple too and it's gorgeous outside in Provo now- finally!

I love this tree, it's my favorite part about this park. This picture does not do justice to its massiveness.

Concentrate, concentrate! I'm pretty sure I came in last due to a couple holes where it took me like seven tries to get the stinkin' disc in the basket, haha.

Most of the course was fairly uneventful. Until this one part of the course that bends slightly and there is a grove of trees to the left. David's disc got stuck up in a tree and since we only have two discs, he had to go retrieve it.

The entire time, I was worried the branches the was climbing weren't sturdy enough but he did eventually manage to shake the disc down. It was seriously perfect positioned across two branches so it was not shaken down easily. I'm not sure which sight was more impressive- David climbing up or down the tree.

But in spite of that little hiccup David actually got a hole in two the last drive which was about 200 feet and he was also the overall winner. This won't be our last disc golf game, but I'm sure hoping it will be the last where any tree climbing is involved. 

So remember our bucket list where I wanted to hike the Y? We did it. Didn't I also say I wanted to hike Squaw Peak? Oh, wait I didn't say that... haha, we went anyways. David is already threatening me with the idea of hiking Timp again by the end of the summer... I think twice in one lifetime is enough, unfortunately so does he- he's only gone once so far.

Looks like this spring is a bit of a replay of last spring- hikes and more hikes. Except last spring we weren't married so this spring is obviously an improvement.

Plus now we have been exercising (yep, another bucket list item taken care of) so the hike was way more enjoyable because we were ready for it. And by exercising I mean we get up and jog in the mornings and go to the gym a few nights a week. It's been fun to see change.

Last Spring we hiked up the front of squaw peak, sans trail, up to a cave on the side of the mountain. It was fun but a little scary since it was pretty steep. We really enjoyed the mild weather and beautifully shaded trails this go round.

This year we went up the normal trail around the back to the top. This photo is the "we are going allll the way up there???" picture. And we hiked it with Cody and Markie which was way fun.

On our way up David, Cody and I were reliving our hike up Mt. Timpanogous last year. We all agreed that our cousin, Travis, was the one who got us up the mountain because he was so prepared. Then guess who runs (yep, up the mountain!) past us but the man himself- and Travis then proceeds to keep running past us and beat us to the top!

Here's Travis checking out the view from the top. He was actually catching up to his brother Kurt who was hiking with his ward (small world- all these cousins on the same mountain on the same Saturday).

Here's my hiker extraordinaire. David got himself some hiking boots because he is in Young Mens at church now and they are preparing for High Adventure. He actually hiked Squaw Peak the weekend before with them, so he was expert status the next week.

All the cousins at the top!

Awww- look at these cuties. They held hands all the way up and down the mountain and treated us to a  reenactment of their engagement. (Can't it be July already?)

We made it!

Here's to keeping the rest of our summer resolutions!
