anderdunc's zion national park vacation

we took a weekend getaway to st. george/zion national park last weekend. it was awesome. steve and i kind of like eachother again (!) and the duncans were great company. and when no kids are involved, well, we could do what we wanted. can't put a price on that.

ANGEL'S LANDING

{we're engaged!}

{we're in a band!}

{taking it easy before the real hike starts. you know, the part with sheer cliffs on both sides and chains with which to brace yourself.}

{me & the bevie. in love.}

{the bradleeduncans}

{lizzy & gina bina pretending to be able to breathe.}

{the summit. the peak. the top. the view. hurrah!}

{EMERALD POOLS}

{the anderduncs at the upper emerald pool}







{the great valley!}

{time to say goodbye. with a little seduction?}

trip highlights:

• no kids
  
• taking showers without rushing because of a crying baby, knock on the door, etc.
• shaving & tweezing & lotioning
  
• eating slowly in peace
  
• staying up late & sleeping in
  
• good talks
• cuddling with bevie
• waking up with a hickey from bevie, uh-huh.
  
• sleeping in the car and not having to binki/bottle/feed/change kids along the way
• not having to binki/bottle/feed/change kids at all
• coming home to my nash who grew three inches and added a hundred words to his vocab
• feeling carefree & hopeful about the future because bevie got a job!
