Memorial Day

Check out my fish! Ha, ha, I caught it on Monday. It's a Splake :) So every year, since before I was born, my family always goes to our cabin in Fish Lake for Memorial Day Weekend. We usually go fishing, hiking, and four-wheeling. Well this weekend, we were lucky to be able to just get some fishing in! The weather was crazy! One second the sun was shining and it was a little warm, then the next it was freezing and snowing! It's May, not November! Haha. Sunday was the warmest, but it was a good thing we left on Monday because we litterally were driving in a blizzard! I felt bad for John, my dad, and Uncle Paul because when they had to get the boat out of the lake IN the blizzarding wind and snow! Good thing they're tough! Haha ;) For the most part we had a lot of fun! It was nice to just go and relax and be outside in the mountains :) Haley, my mom, and I must have gone on a million walks! I'm sorry, but I don't know what men love about watching the Indie 500 race! Haha, I swear, what's so exciting about watching cars race in circles? Ha ha. So while they were busy watching that, we hit the trails :) I'm hoping that my dad will let me take all my girl friends up there sometime this summer and just have a girl's weekend! I would love that-it's so fun girls! Let me know if you're interested :) Our cabin's still a little 1970's ghetto, ha ha, but it's still a lot of fun! :) Enjoy the goofy pictures of my brother and my Dad! The little girl is Afton, John and Haley's baby girl! What a cutie! :)

Josh Groban is the Best!

So my mom surprised me and bought the Josh Groban Awake live in concert DVD and CD yesterday and I was so excited! Natalie and I went to his concert last fall and it was more than amazing!! They actually filmed the concert we were at for the DVD! So who knows, maybe I'll see myself in the audience! Ha...yeah right, but that'd be cool! :) For anyone who has not experienced Josh's GREATNESS, you can come watch it with me because he is amazing! :)

Last night after I was done teaching ballet, I ate dinner and went for a walk with my daddy (YAY!) and then I got really sick! It was insane! I was just really sick to my stomache and all throughout the night I was like throwing up! Sorry for the gross details, but it was not fun! Today, I'm actually feeling better, thankfully. I actually watched Josh Groban right when I woke up:)
I am excited for tonight though because we have three city council meetings! It's just fun to get dressed up and be with my girls :)
Well, I'm off to study anatomy! Yay! haha! Love you all!

My Past Weekend!

Ok this past weekend had to have been one of the best! My brother, John and his wife came in town because Jason, my nephew got baptized on Saturday and my other nephew, Lincoln was blessed on Sunday! So that was something really eventful for my family! Jason's baptism went really well. Natalie gave a great talk too! Then we went to Chuck-a-rama, which I don't necessarily love, but was really good I guess, considering I was so stuffed! Ha! It was also my Grandma's birthday, so we were celebrating for her and we sang to her too! That was fun! My grandma is a cutie!! At 3 pm , Saturday, we had our first little event for Miss PG royalty. Well, not really, but we went to the Strawberry Days Rodeo Pageant to support the queen and the royalty that we'll be working with for part of the summer. That was fun to hang out with the girls and get a little taste of the rodeo :) The girls were so decked-out in their high-waisted tight jeans with embroidery and curly hair! Ha I love it! I wish I could ride a horse! The girl that won did really well. We knew she was going to be in the top. Then, at 6 o'clock, Terry came over and we went to meet his friend at Tepenyaki's (Spelling?) in Sandy. We had to wait a while because his friend, got lost, but it was ok because i just got to talk to Terry even more :) The food was so so good and the chef was amazing!! Ha I love watching them make the food right in front of you! They do the coolest tricks too! We even caught shrimp in our mouths! Well, I did, after I missed the first one-oops! Ha, but it was really fun!

After that, we went back to Terry's house and roasted marshmallows (not olives(Inside joke) ha) That was a lot of fun too! Overall, the night was amazingly fun! :)

Sunday, was definitely the best day I've had in a long time! It was so refreshing and uplifting-literally the whole day! It started with Lincoln's blessing, which was great! Suzy and Nate both bore their testimonies-which I love! You could tell how much love Suzy and Nate have for their child and each other and especially the gospel! After the meeting was over, we had lunch at the Andersons, our other family! :) It was so incredibly warm outside-I even got a little pink from the sun! It was fun to visit with the family!

Terry and I went to the CES fireside at BYU by Russell M. Nelson. It was about choosing appropriate music. It went really well, except I was a little dissappointed because it was very short! But I loved the music, AND I learned something new! Nelson's first wife died and he got remarried to another lady in 2006. I never knew that!

Terry and I have decided that we LOVE tunnel singing! If anyone ever can and wants to come with us, PLEASE DO! (Every sunday at 10 pm) So we were planning to go that night, but we still had time before it started. So ate some ice cream and watched a little Joseph Smith movie-which was really well done, actually! Then we went Tunnel singing! It's so nice to just go there and feel the spirit! Of course, you have to make sure to stand next to the right people because some people just go there to goof off or flirt. Many of you may know that I can't really sing well! Haha I'm not ashamed to admit it, so going to sing everyweek was kind of risky for me, but I guess my voice isn't too bad if people still stand and sing next to me, haha!

SO as you can tell, Sunday was a very spiritually-fed day! I am so grateful for our gospel and the knowlege we have from it! I'm so grateful I have friends and family that I can do gospel activities with and have fun!! There are so many opportunities for us ! It's amazing!
