I believe in Magic

I believe in taking a break every once in a while with a good girl friend. I believe in road trips up to Park City. I believe in the healing power of the crisp mountain air, hot-tub jumping and window shopping.

My parents came down this past weekend and got a hotel for a week in Park City, but weren't planning on using it the last day. So I asked if I could bring a friend and we could use the hotel room for the last night. They loved the idea of someone getting a use of the last day, and I loved the idea of getting away for the weekend with a bestie!

Christine and I had a ball wearing matching swimsuits to the hot tub (which was not planned but HILARIOUS),



flirting with the 18-year-old boys,

Cute for little boys, right?

watching chick flicks and painting our nails black, talking until 2 in the morning, and shopping in Park City. There are so many great shops down historic main street, and we had a great time window shopping.

We took pictures with like every statue on Main Street 


We had lunch at this little barbecue place called Bandits and had the most amazing wraps with sweet potatoes fries. It was so filling I didn't eat the rest of the day!

This was the moose at Bandits- the restaurant we ate lunch at
We also went to the nearby outlet malls so that we could actually spend money instead of wishing we could afford the stuff on Main Street, haha. Although we were well behaved and only bought the stuff we needed.

This was at Old Navy, and NO I didn't buy this!
I mean, why would you sell something so hideous?

However, I really do believe there is a magic-like quality to Park City. Even though its a tourist trap, there is a refreshing quality to the little ski resort town. Everything is so quaint and cozy. Not to mention it brings people closer together, since I hope Christine and I stay friends for a really long time. :)

And one last picture....
This is dedicated to Spencer Miner... because this guy is a miner.  Haha :)
