Brrrthday trip down to Zions

Funny little story: For my 21st birthday Ryan wanted to plan a surprise getaway for the weekend. We are usually sooooo bad about keeping things from each other, but he had been doing a superb job about keeping every detail of the trip from me: he told practically nobody, he got my birthday present, reserved a camping site, collected all of the camping supplies, planned the meals, etc., all without me knowing! I was so proud of him for not spoiling it, but super curious about where we were going and what we were doing! The day before we were going to leave he gets his daily call from his mother, and she wants to say hi to me.... and the first thing she says is,"How excited are you to go camping?? And in Zions??!" hahaha it was so funny! Oh well, Ryan got over it the second we got there.

Here are some pictures from the trip!

He may have been a little more excited about the trip than I was...

The view from the top of our hike the next morning.

In every layer I brought and making friends with Ry's awesome boy-scout fire.

At the top of Angels Landing. Recommendation: Don't hike Angel's Landing when there is snow on it, just a wee bit dangerous!
