QUACK, QUACK, QUACK!

Every year, I face the following decision. Do I go to Duck Beach over Memorial Day? I love the Outer Banks, NC. It was a favorite vacation destination for me a child. I love the beach. I love relaxing. I love the memories. So why wouldn't I go to Duck Beach over Memorial Day? Well, I don't know that I love having 800 other single LDS members searching for love at the beach with me. To me the beach is meant to be relaxing and enjoyable. A time to read, enjoy the sun, and enjoy the surf....NOT meet a ton of new people.

Last year, I planned a trip to Lake Anna. I loved it. It was just a small group of friends. We had fun. It was perfect.

Well this year, not only did a go back to Duck Beach. BUT my roommate and I planned and put together a house. Yes, that was something I thought I'd never do.

I loved our house. I loved the people in our house. I pretty much ignored the 800 other single LDS people. Therefore, the trip to Duck Beach was AMAZING!  Here's pictorial evidence. 

Awesome people in our house

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!
