MIDWAY

Jamie and I had an amazing weekend! It started off with My boss, calling Thursday afternoon, wanting to know if Jamie and I wanted to use his families Condo/timeshare for the weekend. I was so excited, and this was something I felt we both needed, especially with finals just around the corner. Also it might be the last time we have the opportunity to "get away" just the two of us, before Julian is born. And all the responsibility's come along. So Friday night we made the drive up through Provo Canyon and to the town of Midway. For a little background info, Midway Utah was originally settled by Swiss, Mormon Pioneers, who felt like the town was a "little Switzerland" of sorts. It is nestled up in the mountains and is a really pretty area. So the pioneers essentially brought Switzerland with them, by making the whole town appear more "Swiss" like. The architecture, is all very Swiss, even the churches, and resorts. They have German stores, and food, as well as a lot of fun activities. All in all it is a really nice place, and not that far away to feel like you have gone away.

We spent Friday, Saturday, and half of Sunday, mostly relaxing, We traveled around the city a bit, but I think both of us were really in need for some down time. Also it was conference, so we had a great time lounging in a really nice king size bed watching conference. The condo, was a two bedroom, two bath, with a loft. The master bath had a Jet tub, which I have decided, I would really like to have someday in my own bathroom.

Sunday afternoon we went to our good friends in Alpine for dinner and the second session of Conference. Conference was great this year, as always. I am I so thankful, for the opportunity to hear from the prophet and apostles every 6 months.

Overall, this weekend was AMAZING!

I brought my Camera, but only took one picture which I might post later, so for now so you get an Idea of what I am talking about here are some pictures I took off the web





This is the Midway Welcome sign. Already to can see Switzerland!




This is the exterior of the Condo we stayed at. There were about 8 of these buildings and each building has 8 units.




This is a look at the inside. Our layout was a bit different, and the furniture better looking I think! Side note, I have ALWAYS LOVED Spiral Stair cases, and have always wanted one of those as well in my home



This place is called ZERMOTT. It is a resort and Spa, right next door to ours! It really is it's own village, with restaurants, stores, activities, pools, and suites, all sticking with the Swiss theme. I just thought I would post this picture to give you an idea of what the town basically looks like. There are building just like this throughout.
