Slacklining and Hiking...

Ever heard of slacklining? It's one of those things that Jake and his friends do together but just recently did I learn what it was. Don't tell any slackliners that I said this, but it's the same idea as tight rope walking. Although if you call it that you'll offend a lot of guys. Apparently a lot of people use it for meditation and stress relief. Basically we just tied some webbing between two trees and did our best to walk across (don't worry, we protected the trees first).  
 Jake can make it all the way across, turn around in the middle, and is working on being able to lie down.
I barely made it halfway. It's tough! But it was a fun challenge. 

And one more fun activity we did recently. Jake and I hiked the "Y" down in Provo. Even though I went to BYU for a little bit, I never went on this popular hike, so Jake and I decided to do it together. It's a short but very steep hike and the view is gorgeous!

Fall Football...

Jake and I enjoyed the BYU vs. Utah State football game last weekend :-) It was fun to see how "excited" fans got - Jake and I had a hard time not laughing at some of the comments we heard. And here is a lovely picture of the two of us at half time...
