Now that finals are over, Jordan is spending all day everyday studying for the DAT. He is so motivated and determined to keep his study schedule despite my best efforts to distract him. His determination really is amazing and makes it even more fun to try and get a win and make him have a break every once in a while.
Saturday we had a win! It was such a beautiful spring day we couldn't deny the sunshine and decided to go hiking after a couple hours of studying. One of the things that Jordan and I have learned that we love to do together is hike. We did get engaged at the top of Angel's Landing, afterall, so maybe that's what kicked it off! Come to think of it our first date we want on a hike... Ok I think you get the picture, we like hiking. Lucky for us we live in one of the most popular states to do that in! There are so many different hikes and waterfalls here, we really could do one every weekend and still have a whole list to check off!
Grotto Falls became our destination for the afternoon. It is a short hike to a beautiful waterfall just 7 miles up the Nebo Loop. There are all of these wooden planks put across the stream for you to walk across which was really the highlight of the hike for me. I just really like running across planks I guess! We made it to the waterfall, took pics, and then just sat there. Jordan and I have found that it is very important and necessary for us to get outside as often as we can. It makes us both so much happier to focus on each other and not our to-do list for the day. We'll see where we end up hiking next week!
