Memorial Day Weekend at Zions Ponderosa

Wow...this is a super long post with lots of pictures but you gotta love getaways! We had an awesome time this past weekend spending time with friends in Zions. We stayed in a great cabin at the Zions Ponderosa Ranch and Resort and loved it.


Nicole and Colby just chillin'




Celebrating birthdays. Tyler turned 26, I turned 25 and Jake turned 39....oh I mean 29 (haha)




Men making breakfast...yum!

Women waiting for breakfast.







Pictures of us in front and in our cabin.




Just the two of us.



My new friend....

My new love...


Meet Shiloh (in my arms) and Abby (in Nicole's arms). Some employees at the ranch owned adorable puppies. I am still anxiously waiting for my own and had to get my fix on these cuties. Sheldon and I wanted to take Shiloh home.




Riding in the golf cart...why the crazy face you ask? Sheldon decided to hang off the back of the cart while we were moving. I still love him.




Just us making more memories.




Nicole was very proud in this photo because she was about to drive the golf cart. About 5 minutes after this picture she discovered that it wasn't so simple. After it was figured out she did great!






Swimming at the resort.




Sheldon loves playing with Colby...I think the feeling is mutual...?





Sweating it out at the barn dance.




Michelle and Justin after a zip-line ride. So cute.






This is my proudest moment of the trip...I went paintballing!!! I was SO nervous because I had never done it before, Nicole was in the same boat. We almost hyperventilated several times before starting. My hardest hit was from Sheldon of course. I have a bruise on the back of my arm from his ruthlessness! Nicole and Bree, I am so proud of us!



4 wheeling with Bree and Tyler. (I'm really not a midget, Tyler and Bree are just model tall)





At Jolly's Gully. This place had a crazy story but it is too long to write.





Last, Sheldon and I in front of the cabin. The trip was a nice break for the both of us. Thanks for all the laughs friends. We had a blast.

We hope you all had a great weekend too!

How fun! Wish it was me! You guys always do such fun things. I think it is so awesome that you do it. Enjoy it and even after you have little ones, keep doing it!

I'm so glad you guys came on the trip. We had a blast hanging out with you! Okay there are several things I love about this post...

1) I love that you tease Jake about his age just like me!

2) Yes I really was about to hyperventilate before paintballing and remember how the first round I literally just hid in a corner haha.

3) The golf cart was not as simple as it looked! I wish we had on video the first 5 minutes of trying to get out of the driveway. It makes me laugh just thinking about it!

4) I really wish you could have brought Shiloh home with you!
