If We Meet Again, It will be ZION to me!

Though I've never had a sister, I have been blessed with amazing friends that have been like sisters to me. At BYU, I had the fortune of finding a group of girlfriends, whom I'd gladly call my sisters.

We had the opportunity this summer to meet up again and it was ZION to me! We reunited at my families house in Rockville and spent the hours reminiscing of earlier days and confiding about more recent experiences and challenges. For some the talk was pregnancy and parenting, while for other the dating scene was still the forefront of their lives. I loved talking with them all and was reminded how truly blessed I am have friends that are uplifting and make me a better person.

We explored some of the frontcountry hikes in ZION National Park like the Riverwalk and Weeping Rock. The scenery was beautiful and the fresh air was refreshing (though maybe a little hot).  More beautiful were the friendships that were renewed and strengthened. I love you all!

Yay for Zion's! I love the "good-bye" pic of all of us in our knee-length shorts. That's cute. :) Such a fun weekend, and yet it feels like it was so long ago. Just last Sunday we were at church together! Miss you all. :)

Aww...what fun! I am jealous and will continue to feel like I was there anyway. But I guess we'll see each other in June...right?!

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!
