This last week I celebrated my 18th wedding anniversary! I got married when I was 18… That puts it a little into perspective!
My husband and I went to Park City so we could celebrate. We left the kids with Grandma, and really enjoyed ourselves. We went up to a really neat place called “The Canyons”, where we rode a gondola up to a high peak of the mountain. At the top, we got off and hiked and played frisbee golf. I’m not very good with a frisbee, (and we almost lost it once), but it was one of the most fun dates I’ve ever had. I love being out in nature.

On Sunday, we went to a church there in Park City. Pretty amazing when we found ourselves sitting behind the family we usually sit behind in our home ward. Crazy- we were both vacationing at the same spot!
While we were sitting there, I noticed my first gray hair. Yes, I probably had one before now, but I’ve been careful not to look too hard before this. I was a little disappointed it was so easy to find.
Later, in our Relief Society class, I sat next to another visitor (on their honeymoon) she was amazed that we were celebrating our 18th wedding anniversary. Someone on the other side of me asked if we had any children. (Love that question!) I always love to see the reaction when I tell them I have 7. At any rate, I was not disappointed and the lady was shocked, telling me that I still looked like a teenager! (I don’t think so, but thank you anyway!)
It was a fun trip. And now I can say that I have been married longer than I have been single…. Must be getting older.
