Celebrating Mama Sue's Birthday

We celebrated my sweet wife's birthday about 10 days ago and had a wonderful weekend.

We started off our fun-filled weekend by heading up to Zion National park with our dog, Minnie. For everyone who knows Minnie, you know that she is a bundle of never-ending energy. When she is on her leash and walking with us, she is like a whole different dog. She stays with us, isn't distracted by people or dogs, and is generally very calm. We hiked the Pa'Rus trail which is the only trail in Zion that you can take dogs on. It's about a 3.5 mile round trip. After the hike went stopped at the Soleil Cafe and had a nice lunch.

All of this was to help us get prepared for a wonderful night out together. I won a wonderful dinner for two with limousine service to the Orchids restaurant...our favorite. Our good friend Imi Kun, is the owner and executive chef. Imi used to own the Cosmopolitan restaurant in Silver Reef, where Sue and I had our wedding dinner at with our family. Needless to say that my bride looked absolutely stunning. The food was wonderful and we were pampered in every way by the staff and the Orchids as well as the limousine service. it will be a wonderful night to remember. 

On Sunday we were able to have Kari, Will and the kids over for dinner as well as Sherri, Talon, and Addy, and Jimmy, Hollie, and the kids over. it was quite birthday celebration. This was the most folks we have had over to celebrate Sue's birthday since we've been married.

It was a great weekend...I am so blessed to be married to this wonderful woman...my "little lady".
 Happy Birthday Honey!!!

p.s. For some reason I am having all kinds of trouble loading photos on this post, so I will put the rest of them an another post real soon.
