Mamaface the Slackerface due to being a Busyface with Cheeserface

This mamaface has been a major slackerface.

 I totally need to blog more. I have so much to blog about, so of course, that keeps me from blogging. But miss Audrey Jade is napping and I'm waiting for her to wakey wakey so we can go on a hike...so what better time than now to blog! Before I talk about my wild Vegas Bachelorette trip, I would like to give a run through of all of our hikes and such for the rest of March. We have a pretty sweet life, us two...

So in celebration of St. Patty's day, we needed a nice St. Patty's day hike up Grandeur Peak in all green attire of course. Grandeur is in Millcreek, and pretty much, one of my favorite hikes. It is gorgeous.

My mama, Jesica and Puerta all came along for the fun

Audrey was even wearing green bows..hell, my mom was wearing a green bow too. Why not..

At the top is a bunch of prettiness and Audrey got to have her milk, enjoy the view for the 5th time and eat some cheese. We choreographed a leprechaun dance for all to enjoy

I ran across this picture of Audrey from last years St. Patty's day

Wow. Wasn't she just a cute Cheeserface. She was only FIVE months old here. Look at that gummy grin. Look at that bald head. Just amazing

Moving on... 

The very next day after Grandeur was a sunny one. So much so, that I got to stroll along Emigration Ridgeline wearing nothing but my T. We stopped, had a picnic, laid out in the sun...

I totally burnt my retina's. The snow makes everything super bright and I sweat so bad that sometimes I have to take off my sunglasses. I put Audrey's goggles on though so she was probably super toasty. Oh well. She was protected from premature blinding and aging (thanks mommy)

My friend Jeremy showed me this app on my phone called My Tracks. Its amazing. I'm so sad that I never used it until these past few hikes. Basically, it tracks your entire hike through GPS. Elevation gain, miles, speed. You can then send it to your GMail. Puerta and I used it for a snowshoe up Parleys. It was amazing. Pretty tough. We cut through the trees to get up to the top and My Tracks really helped us trace our way down the mountain (we get lost easy)

Isn't this amazing? I wish I could take the entire world to these spots we hike to. Its truely breathtaking. Sometimes I get goosebumps (I know, I sound so cheesy and lame)

I have such a hard time picking pictures to put up on my blog, let alone keep track of all of the hikes, which pictures to print...I take ten million pictures a month I swear!

I know that Audrey is too little to remember all these hikes, and I want her to have these pictures documented

Next stop on the hiking list was one of the most beautiful trails I've ever done...drumroll please...Mineral Fork. This trail is up Big Cottonwood and I have done it before. The only thing is I had never finished it. I absolutely hate not finishing. The entire thing is over nine miles long, 3000 feet elevation gain and pretty intense. Puerta and I were up for the challenge...

It was such a nice, sunny day. The trail was melting as we were going.

My calves/bum/hip flexors get sore just looking at these pictures

The mine at the end is an optical illusion. The more you walk, the farther away it seems to go

Notice that we are walking straight towards an avalanche...

In action....

Good thing I slathered Audrey in sunscreen...Puerta suffered a pretty intense sunburn and I had an awesome farmer line...

This is one of my favorite pictures of Cheeserface and I. I have it framed already ;)

So, the very next day, I was experiencing some pretty good soreness in the buttal area along with a fresh burn on my skin but it didn't stop me from going and celebrating Sharry's birthday with a birthday hike up Millcreek...little did I know that we would be hiking Mt. Aire again...it was my fourth hike that week! I complained in my head for the first few miles and then decided I needed to suck it up...

Mt. Aire is a tough hike. I had never taken Audrey up it before. At just under 2 miles it has a 2000 foot elevation gain. Plus the extra three miles you have to go on the road that is blocked off...this trail takes a few hours..

I was a sweaty pig...but pretty proud of myself for making it to the top

TA DA

Happy Birthday to Sharry! I don't know why I was squatting in that picture. It looks awkward. I'm pretty sure it was an intense squat too.

And how could I forget to mention Jesica's Birthday celebration at the cabin in Heber? Here we are attempting the STRICU/ RICU/ ER Pyramid...

Jenney has a son two months younger then Audrey...she basically loved him...

Picture proof of the love...she wouldn't stop hugging him. Such a flirt

So that was the rest of March. March was awesome. Busy. Fun....but Cheeserface and I are ready for some warm weather, bikini's and jelly sandals...

Right after this picture was taken, we performed a 'Sun Dance' and hoped for the snow to stop so we can hang up our snowshoes, take off some layer and chillax next to a lake and/or pool..

Bring on APRIL! Its already been just as good as March...Oh...and next blog...VEGAS...BACHELORETTE STYLE! Trust me...its gonna be a hilarious blog...
