What a wonderful husband I have. It was my 33rd birthday yesterday and Danny surprised me with a weekend away in Flagstaff. We started our trip with a 7 mile run on the beautiful Arizona Trail. As we ran, we saw a group of Antelope ahead and since our trail was winding, we kept running into the same group several times. I'm sure they thought,"hey, we're trying to nap here!" This is us on the trail. The Tree's were beautiful in full fall bloom.
We then checked into our hotel in Flagstaff and a tray of wine, cheese, and grapes was brought to our room just before dinner. So nice!
This is our chef at dinner. We had sushi and Tepanaki. We also had the craziest Tapanaki chef I have ever seen! :) He not only set a huge flame at our table, but he outlined our table and the one next to us with fire! We were surrounded by a fire ring! It was amazing!
My Japanese birthday cake. :)
To cap off a wonderful weekend, we went hoseback riding this morning. It was beautiful. I always say, if I could live life again, I would be a rancher. Horses are such beautiful animals. It's so therapeutic any time I spend time with them. We hope to own a few someday. We always joke that since we had "Lauren" and "Steven" picked out as our children's names. We will adopt Lauren and name our first horse Steven. :)

What a beautiful way to spend a birthday weekend! How sweet that Danny surprised you with such a great gift. I love it when you go to a hotel and there are fun treats waiting for you. I'm happy to know that you had some good eats at the sushi restaurant and that the chef didn't set you all on fire!
