Hiking to the Y

Well, We've lived in Provo for almost two years now, and we still hadn't hiked the Y together. I had done it before and remembered thinking it wasn't that great of a hike. HOWEVER, Cory is finally done with the police academy so we had a Saturday to hang out together, so we decided to make it happen!
 This is from the parking lot. I think the view here is just as great as the view from the top. But I was already invested this far, there was no turning back.
 Here we are at one of our many many stops. This hike is switchbacks the entire way up. The internet has it marked as a "moderate" hike. WHAT THE... anything with the work switchback in it should NEVER be classified as a "moderate" hike. I had to stop at almost  every switchback... and ..... breathe....lucky for me my hubby is a patient and loving guy.
 I really did it! And 5 months pregnant to boot! The hike down was so much more enjoyable for me. Other than it felt like my belly was sagging to floor thanks to hiking downhill and gravity! ha ha ha
The best part of the entire hike was our stop on the way home to the BYU creamery. We had never been there and it was cheap and delish!!!
