The weekend of August 23rd was pretty eventful for this set of Fox's. We were planning to go down to Salt Lake Friday, August 22nd so we could go to the Motocross National in Tooele, Utah on Saturday the 23rd. I booked a cute little hotel for Saturday night and was SO excited for a weekend away with my handsome hubby. Well...the night of the 21st Kevin got the flu so our plans kind of changed. He stayed in bed all day Friday and started to feel better later Friday night/early Saturday morning. We decided to just miss the races on Saturday and head down to Salt Lake whenever we got ready Saturday morning. We couldn't check in at the hotel till 3 pm anyways. By the time we left for Salt Lake Kevin was feeling 100% better. The pictures can tell the rest of the weekend...

| We stopped at Cafe Rio in Pocatello for lunch...little did I know the next morning I'd be regretting that sweet pork salad. |
The next few pictures are at our Hotel when we first checked in...
 |
| This bed was SO comfortable. I wish we could have put it in my purse and taken it home! |
 |
| After we checked into the Hotel we walked to City Creek and explored there for a while. We went into the Rolex store and picked out our future watches we'll get once we're millionaires. $80,000 for a watch wont seem so extreme then right?...haha. |
 |
| The elevator at the hotel was so funny. It was TINY. The door would start opening before the elevator stopped. Kevin would scream every time. Hahaha. |

| The Peery Hotel! |
That night we made a spontaneous trip down to Provo to visit Danny, Melissa, Shawnii, and the little ones. It was so fun getting to see them and their awesome house. We stayed till about 10:30 then headed back to the hotel in Salt Lake. On the drive home I started to feel kinda sick but I thought it was just because we hadn't eaten dinner yet.
We got back to the hotel and we were both exhausted so we fell on the bed and went right to sleep...I tossed and turned most of the night because my stomach felt like knives were trying to escape from within! I got up 3 or 4 times thinking I was going to be sick. Finally around 6 am I couldn't take the nausea anymore and decided to take a shower. As soon as the hot water touched my skin I was ready to puke. Haha. Hello sweet pork salad...Lets just say I still get queasy when thinking about eating there.
Kevin woke up after I showered and felt super bad that I had been sick all night. He got some stuff from the hotel breakfast to see if I could eat anything. Then he got all our stuff together and we headed over the airport to pick up our friend Taylor who was flying in from North Carolina.

| This was as we were leaving the hotel. Sexy man and his sickie wife. |
 |
| The Hotel was really cute. We would stay there again just for the ridiculously comfortable beds. Not the nicest but being so old it had so much character. I've always wanted to stay at a hotel downtown so it was fun to cross it off my bucket list. |
After we picked up Taylor from the airport we went to wal-mart so I could get a coke and some saltine crackers to try to settle my stomach more. We met up with Andrew (he flew into Salt Lake on his way to Vernal for an intense awesome presentation for his internship he did over the summer). It was really fun getting to see him for a little while. We stopped to have lunch at Del Taco with him.
It was a really fun weekend despite all the sickness. It was nice getting to spend time with Kevin. The summer was really busy and we needed some time just the two of us. Hopefully we'll get to have another weekend away soon without the flu tagging along. ;)
Until next time...
