V-day Fun

We intended to take the camera, but were so excited about our night out that we forgot it. So just imagine the fun we had...

Chris and I decided to celebrate Valentine's Day on Friday, the 13th instead of on the 14th because we thought maybe we'd miss most of the V-Day crowds. We went to Ruby River for dinner and ate at their Anniversary table. It's a small table for two at the top of the stairs, and it's kind of tucked into the corner of the balcony so if you didn't know it was there, you'd miss it. We know the manager so Chris called him ahead of time and reserved the table. This is where that old saying "it's who you know, not what you know" comes in handy! But I don't think you need to know the manager, just know that there is an anniversary table that can be requested. It was cool to walk in with people waiting everywhere and be escorted immediately to our table! We should have dressed up like the rich and famous!

Dinner was fabulous and then we headed off to Layton to go Go-Cart Racing. The racing was fun, fast, and a bit expensive. But it was worth it for a special experience. Chris totally kicked my butt on the track. It took me a few times around the track before I figured out how to go around the corners without sliding around the track. Of course, Chris mastered it right away. Our top speeds were right around 22mph, but in a go cart, inches from the ground, it felt like we were going 60!
