Winter Skiing Trip To York, PA!!!!

For our winter ward activity this year, (yes...i'm still the Co-Ward Activities Committee Chair and plan all these amazing activities) we went to York, PA. The hotel we ended up staying in was so ghetto. It was even worse than the ghetto Taylor Hall dorms at BYU freshman year. It looked like we were going to be entering the twilight zone or something. Luckily, we were only staying the night.

The next morning a group of friends got up to go skiing at Ski Roundtop not far from where we were staying. SO MUCH FUN! It reminded me of some of the great ski trips from the college days. How about the RS retreat to Colorado or the night skiing at Brighton? Good memories. You'd be surprised to know that I only fell once and it wasn't on the bunny slope; it was a double black diamond. On the East Coast double black diamond = to a difficult blue in Utah. Gotta love the East Coast skiing. I loved the snow makers ever few feet (note the one in the background of the picture). Definitely made me miss the Utah slopes!

Kansas City Temple Dedication

I have this fabulous friend that lives in Manhattan, Kansas going to Kansas State University. I have been really wanting to visit her for some time and I finally made it happen! The Kansas City Temple was going to be dedicated the first weekend in May and so what better time for me to come out. Friday Night, we went to a Jamaican restaurant in Manhattan. (Yes, they had one there...not expecting that!) You really felt like you were in Jamaica until you stepped out of the restaurant and realized you were in Manhattan, Kansas. After dinner, we went for a walk in Aggieville. The hang out olace in town. Yes, it was only 3 blocks long. We got ice cream sandwiches from Cold Stone. They were delicious and spent some time at one of the local bars until I got too tired and we decided to call it a night. Saturday Morning, we went walking around her neighborhood. The weather was amazing! Then we headed back to Kansas City for the cultural event. Along the way we...

Bowling League

About three months ago, my roommate decided to put together a bowling league. Even though I'm not a great bowler, I thought it would be fun to join. I bowled really well the first night but it was all downhill from the first evening. Throughout the league, we did have some fun bets going. This picture is the result of one. This is the result of a lost bet! The last night of bowling! The bowling shoes that brought success to most of us (not me) My awesome team!!! The winning team!!!

Trebek

Last Friday, I went and saw Jeopardy being filmed here in DC at the DAR Constitutional Hall. We were there for the Teen Tournament. During the commercial breaks, Alex Trebek would answer questions. I was surprised how genuine he was. He really loves his job. We also saw him make a mistake, which apparently was the first time in a while. They were sure quite what to do because he read the answer in the questions. They ended up stopping the filming and coming up with a new question. What a fun experience!
