Me and two of my roomies, Kate and Krista, decided to take full advantage of our 4 day weekend and headed to Utah! Only this wasnt your typical go to Utah and wonder what you are going to do the whole time...we had an entire list of things we were going to accomplish each day and I can proudly say we did EVERYTHING on the list!!! :) It started with floating down the Provo River on tubes--Krista and I were cursed and ended up flipping out of tubes into the 40 degree water! Needless to say it was FREEZING and we are TORN UP from the rocks, branches, and everything else in the water! Then we camped at American Fork Canyon at one of the most amazing locations ever! It was raining so we didnt have a fire for more than 45 minutes but it was long enough to make dinner and a few smores--we were tired anyway so we chilled inside the tent for the most part and told ghost stories! Sunday we went to church and watched a couple movies with the Wandviks--so much fun! Monday we headed to Park City were we did the zip line, the worlds steepest, and the alpine slides followed by three hours of shopping! It was a blast--although I got grumpy for a little bit because there was no structure for the shopping part lol. Monday night we went to our FHE brothers house, Travis, in West Jordan for a bon fire and I got to drive Jon's HUGE truck! We should have taken pictures but we didnt! DANG IT!!! Tuesday we headed to the Salt Lake Zoo and temple square! It was a long weekend, we came back DEAD TIRED and I think we ended up in bed by 10pm last night--thats a record! Here are some pictures from our adventures! :)

1/4 way through...




The first 1/4 of the semester is over!!! Which means, only 1 and 3/4 semesters left! HA...can you tell I am excited??! Lately, I have been filled with ideas on what I want to do next year but nothing seems right so far so I dont really know which direction I will end up going. One thing is for sure though...I was CLEARED for the December Graduation ceremony--as long as I pass the last of my classes! I feel so accomplished being the first one in my family to go through and finish college at once...and only being the 2nd person to EVER finish! Who would have thought only the oldest and youngest would graduate?!?
