Ya, I flew the plane for about a minute and a half and that was enough time to flirt with death.

UTAH!
OK, so I am learning what "friends with benefits" really means. I became friends with some people in our ward who happen to own their own plane and fly back and forth from Utah all the time and they said anytime I wanted a ride (for free mind you) to let them know and they would take me. So I took them up on the offer and I went up to Utah for 3 days without my kids and husband to see my friend Katie and my sister Ashley. My favorite part of the trip, just hanging out with Katie. The funniest part of the trip, seeing couples walk around BYU holding their hands up strategically so you could see the engagement ring, barf. I was able to get some pretty cool pictures with my camera from the plane since you don't fly as high as a regular plane.

you are brave. i don't think i could fly in a little airplane like that! how nice of your friends! looks like you had a blast!
Ok how fun!! I would have a heart attack if someone asked me if I wanted to fly the plane, but what a fun experience. You look amazing Carol and how fun to go on a vacation for a few days with no kids either! You are a lucky gal and I thought that friends with benefits meant something else when we are single:)j/k
How fun and what nice friends! I'm not sure what I'd do with myself without any kids. I'm sure you were loving it, what a nice break!
CRAZY!!! CRAZY!!! (ok I won't say it again) But seriously! I have a fear of small planes like that, but it really looks so awesome! So cool...was this part of a early bday present? And I am sooo impressed with your Hubby's Ponytail Skills, Mark has NONE! Loved this post, and yay for a nice break!
Ooh, I love the pics from the plane! So cool. Okay, how funny is it that we chose the same two pictures for our blogs? It's 'cause we looked the prettiest in those ones. Too bad I didn't pose so you could see my wedding ring...next time.
That is so awesome.. You know we are all super jealous!!! I don't know if my man can make a ponytail like that!

That's totally cool that you got to fly to Utah for free. You know what's even cooler? I can totally see my building where I work in that picture you took of Phoenix from the airplane. And not only that but I can even see my office window. Crazy, huh? What day did you leave? I was probably in my office working away (or emailing or blogging) when you flew right over me.
wow! what a great trip!! sounds like a ton of fun! my favorite part of the entry: jared's robe. hah!
