SNOWBIRD!! (Lot's of pics)

First of all: Thanks for checking out our blog again. We loved your comments on our previous posts. Aaron has been tied up doing a lot of things and getting the Photography business moving forward has been a little tough. But we plan on having most of the details of the business in place so we will start advertising soon. We have a lot of exciting things in place. You will know when it happens:) Thanks for all the support. I know all of you are dying to see what our next Taqueria or taco stand will be, we will update our blog again next week about our next adventure. When we finish our quest of finding the best place around, be ready to come visit:)


I won four tickets to snowbird from my work, so we decided to invite Mike and his girlfriend Mari to join us. We had a ton of fun!This is on our way to Snowbird! We were so excited as you can see:)First stop: The rock climbing wall. We all made it to the top! Here's Mike and MariGo Aaron! I couldn't keep up with his long legs!Go Chelsea! You can't tell, but I'm like a mile and a half up in the air;) That's like as tall as the Burj Dubai so I was really high up there! haha
Aaron and Mike are so cool on their little sleds. What!
Me getting ready to kick Aaron's trash! Get ready to race!All systems go!Aaron is excited to go down the Alpine slide.It may appear that this would be proof that Aaron won the race, but really I turned on the boosters and passed him up after they shot this picture!
We decided we all needed some self esteem boosters so we all got some attractive pictures around the table as we ate lunch. First , I had the pleasure of taking a bite of potato salad...
Then, Aaron tried to impress us by shoving his whole sandwich in his mouth.
By this time the squirrel named Gomer came to join in on the fun. So we got a picture to make him feel important.
Mike pulled his famous zoolander nacho move..
Mari was quick to eat her sandwich before Gomer stole it. We had a great lunch and we headed out to the Zipline.
Here is the chairlift to take us to the zipline. We were excited!
..Ready. Set.....
...AAAAh... We're flying!
We went up the mountain on the Peruvian express lift. At the top of the lift was "the cave" On the other side of the mountain through the cave Aaron decided to have a little fun and so This will give you an idea of how crazy he is when you let him run loose. I don't know how he does it!
He would have climbed the tree first if I didn't stop him! hahaThat's what the scenery looks like without a crazy man in the shot:)
Amongst all the things going on at Snowbird when no one was looking, not even the photographer we had a romantic moment. The scenery was beautiful there.
Mari and Mike have practically the same picture too! Weird! ...They must have had a romantic moment too! They were probably just looking for where those bells were coming from? :)

Sometimes without realizing it you may stand at a summit and enjoy the view, thinking nothing more of the present. That moment captured, now looking at the past in a different view , you actually see the future.

WHAT WOULD LIFE BE WITHOUT FAMILY REUNIONS AND TAQUERIAS?

Aaron just got promoted to lead a new account called Weblawsearch.com and will be working full time on that account. He has met together with the owners and they're excited to start. They will have him start tomorrow. He finished his last week on the Doba account and had a record 25 sales. He was pretty proud and so was I:) He was the leader on that account all but two weeks,
and I know he will do well with his new responsibilities. So here's the latest numbers on the Board Aaron is the two columns on the left.Here is Aaron and I playing tanks. It's a newfound retro game Aaron use to play with his cousin Dexter when he visited them in Idaho. You take turns shooting at each other using the direction and power control. Then you blast holes in the ground around them until you get them!
Aaron got a new bluetooth Wacom tablet! Now he can just lay back and relax while he edits all the pictures I take for our Gallery Image Photography business! ...Or of course, play tanks!

We decided that we are going to see what place has the best tacos and best Mexican food around here. We are going to try a new place every week if possible and include it in our posts. Our first stop was Raquel's Taqueria. I got a burrito and Aaron got a bunch of tacos and they were great. We like that place because the owner gave us free drinks. They used high quality steak, but could have sliced and diced it a little better:) The sauce they had was very hot, but everything had a good flavor. Overall we rate it three stars (five being the highest) For ten bucks we were filled. We will go back soon. We think they deserve another chance for us to find their five star dish!mmm...tacos
mmm...burrito
We like this place
Our Second stop was at Lonestar Taqueria . Aaron and I have been here twice. The first time was better and they were a better price then. We found out they were featured on Food Network and so we thought we could try it again. This time we shared a carne desebrada burrito. It was good and had a lot of flavor . They aren't trying to be authentic at all. It's a pretty good tex-mex creation. We give it 3.5 stars. The price was about 15 dollars for us both and we were a little disapointed it came with some version of frijoles rancheros in this case , basically a bean soup of some sort.. We went to a family reunion for my moms side of the family last week. It's tradition to have it up Hobble Creek (which is officially said "CRICK" in the fam) So we went for a walk down thur by the crick. It was a lot of fun! We took my cousin with us who was up for an adventure. We saw several deer and a lot of flying things too.Say Hello!
Aaron got this picture of a rock with moss on it up close, it looks kind of like a forest.. kind of:)
Where's Waldo? That's the name of the deer we saw:)
And here's Gerome the butterfly.

We've been married a year!

To start our anniversary weekend off, I woke up and made Aaron breakfast in bed, it was delisioso!
Later that day we took a trip to bridal veil falls. We walked the path and had a picnic. The scenery was great and it was nice to be outside and spend some time with eachother.

We laid down a blanket by the path on the grass and looked up at the clouds and talked.
Here's a view under the trees. It's a dragon! ...or a chicken.. ?
After we went to Bridal Veil Falls we stopped at FYE just for fun and looked around. We found a bin full of twenty five cent CDs and each picked one out . They were both pretty lame of course, but Aaron found the better one. I thought for sure a CD named 'Sugar Candy Taxi' would be the best...but i was wrong! haha If anyone want to borrow these let me know, you wont even have to give them back! :)
We went to the dollar movie to see the Night at the Museum sequel . Don't tell anyone, but that drink was from the gas station we bought on the way there. We are such rebels!!
We went to the training table too. That's where we went on our first date. How romantic. Aaron still drools when he eats Cheese fries! That's when I knew:) haha

I was in a rush to go to work, stressed because I was late already. I had just turned the corner and the sun was shining in my eyes so , as usual I pulled down the visor and BAM! - rose pedals fell everywhere and I saw Aaron had left a note. It was so cute , it made me a little teary eyed. I didn't care that I was late to work anymore. All I wanted to do is turn my car around and be with him!
Life may be stressful , but I have to remember that there is one constant and amazing thing in my liv life: My husband. He's always there for me and shows that he loves me even when I'm frustrated with the trials of life.

Aaron played my the song he wrote when he proposed. I love that song and he's the most amazing man ever!! I love him with all my heart.
We got together with Aaron's family on Sunday. The day of our anniversary and ate a piece of our wedding cake that had been in the freezer for a year. Thanks to my mom's layers of wrapping she put on it, it actually tasted pretty good. The thought of eating a cake that is a year old is sure a weird one. Where did this tradition come from? It must have started out as a practical joke and everyone passed it one because they had to do it too! Fun stuff!
We stayed at Aaron's parents house on Friday before going to the Salem Days fireworks. We woke up and Judy had made a poster for us that said 'Happy Anniversary Chelsea and Aaron' We censored out the part that said that we were her favorite couple so no one would be jealous! :)
That's us watching the fireworks.
Tee da
You can see some of the people watching as the fireworks go off. It was a fun night. Aaron's parents took us out to eat before going to Salem Days. We had a great weekend! We are more in love that ever before and we had fun remembering the year that has gone by.
