Seaworld

On our little adventure to Mexico we went back to San Diego on Wednesday and spent the day at Seaworld with Jeremy Carter's family (Jeremy is on the trip with us. He is Beau's roommate and former mission companion). It was a way fun day, although I did get a little sunburned in the face...which I hate...but it's my fault for not wearing any sunscreen. :) Anyway...we saw Shamu, a seal show, a dolphin show, we went to the shark encounter, and rode a few rides there one of which was impossible to walk away dry from...unless you had an umbrella...which I happened to have in my bag, but forgot about until after I got off the ride haha. It would have been super funny had I used it! Anyway the rides were fun, the shows were good and the food, of course, was expensive...but what do you do? I have included some pictures of the day. Hope you enjoy! :)

Forever and a day!

So it seriously has been forever since I've posted and for this fact I apologize. It's not easy to do when you don't have close access to the internet...which means that there is no internet at my apartment...

Life has been crazy but good. I work a lot but Lord knows I need the money and it gives me something to do during the day besides sit on my butt and watch TV all day.

I am currently rereading the Harry Potter series and I am loving it just as much as I did last summer. I am currently on the fourth book and am not excited for the fifth one because it was my least favorite of the seven.

I leave for Mexico next week (yes, I'm going again) and I cannot wait! I am super excited to get my tan back. :)

I had a family reunion up at Panguitch Lake over Father's Day weekend and it was a blast. It's an annual tradition and we always have loads of fun. From card games to fishing to an added adventure this year of geocashing. I was really bumbed when I had to leave, but there will always be next year and I will see that side of the family at Ute football games which are always a huge good time.

My little sister Brianna Graduated from High School at the end of May which now leaves my parents with the empty nest syndrome. My dad is way excited for all of us to finally be out of the house, but my mom isn't quite sure what she is going to do with herself. I'm sure she'll figure something out.

I will try and post a little more often, but no promises!

Formal

We've all seen the movie stereotype of what a sorority is. Snobby girls, lots of alcohol, etc. But I have some friends in my ward who are apart of the sorority Alpha Phi and it is nothing like that (ok, maybe a few snobby girls:) ) My friend Brianna (who is a member of Alpha Phi) invited me to their formal a couple of weeks ago and it was seriously so fun! We had dinner, they gave out awards, we danced, it was just one huge good time. Here are some pictures from the event.

Lookin' hot with the knight!

Me and my girls! (Bri, Jess, Timian)

One Voice Reunion

What a blast I had at the One Voice 10 year reunion! It was so fun to see old friends and it was quite amazing how quickly the songs came back to me! We practiced pretty much all day and it was just like old times where the directors had to tell us to shut up about a million times. But let's be honest, it wouldn't be One Voice it they didn't have to do that.

I included some pictures that I took after the concert. I hope you like them!

Birthday madness!

I usually don't like having birthday parties, but I figured I would make an exception this year and it was a big hit! I would have to say that at least 50 people came! It feels good to be so popular! Ha ha. It was Mexican themed in memoriam of Spring Break and below are pictures of the huge good time!

Groupies at my Party! Haha

Pinata time!

Snow!!!

So pretty sure it snowed last night and I am really unhappy about the whole thing. I mean it is almost April for cryin' out loud! If it snows on my birthday I am going to be extremely upset! Anyway...I must say that reality sucks a whole lot! I miss Mexico so much! And the people I was with too. We had a huge good time and we all want to go back.

In happier news, I am now dating someone. I know I know, it's about time! Her name is Heather Adams, and we actually work together at the rent-a-post (the on campus post office). We went to the Jon Schmidt concert in Tuacahn on Saturday and it was really good. My grandparents and aunt and uncle were there too, so it was fun to see them.

School just get busier and busier and I need another break already! Haha. Oh well, there's only a month left, so I think I will survive...hopefully...Hooray for summer time! It's gonna be a good one.
