Ever since we got married almost five years ago, Jon hasn't really done anything for me for my Birthday or Mothers Day, or any holiday really. We don't even go on dates ever. So this year for my Birthday he went all out and surprised me. First we went and ate dinner at the Grey Cliff Lodge- which was really yummy, especially their oatmeal pie! Then we stayed in the Alaskan Inn (where I've got better sleep than I have since I have had kids, I seriously crashed once I got there. It was so nice not having to get kids ready for bed!) Then the following day we went out to Antelope Island and went on a two hour horse ride. It was fun, I like horseback riding, but definitely do not love it. But it was fun with Jon. After the horseback riding we went on a dinner cruise on the Great Salt Lake. The dinner cruise was nice because there was only 14 people total, and the food was amazing, we had prime rib!! Plus we got to see the sunset which was absolutely beautiful! Jon went to so much effort to make my birthday special this year, and he did a good job! My birthday actually fell the next day, which was Sunday, so my mom made us an awesome dinner! She was so sweet, she got on the internet and researched my food allergies, and centered the whole meal around my food allergies! It was actually very good, we had steak, rice, fruit, and veggies. Then for dessert she made me a cake with rice flour and no eggs, but the first time she forgot to put the sugar in, so she remade it, and the second time forgot the oil. Surprisingly, it was very good even without the oil, it was just more dense. She also made me chocolate ice-cream out of rice milk, that too tasted really good. I think this was one of my best birthdays because so many loved ones went to so much effort to make it nice!! Thank you Jon and Mom! I love you both!! (Jon I love you a lot more though! No offense mom)
