Robie creek 2009!

This last weekend i went home to run robie creek! it kicked my butt but it was lots of fun! i will post about it as soon as i have pics!

Wow am i behind on blogging! i have been really bad at staying on top of this. but i think its only because i don't really have anything to write about. I was thinking the other day, this really is a selfish time in my life. haha i mean im not married, i dont have kids and i dont live at home, so pretty much everything is just about me. i have no one else to worry about. soo when it comes to blogging i just feel like all i ever do is talk about myself! which gets super boring. but... a few ppl have been saying i need to write more soooooo ill try my best to make this interesting. :)

since i am so far behind.. i found lots of pics to put up!

in march sometime me and kar went for a run and decided to take the camera. on campus there is this big hill called old main and lots of ppl sled down it in the winter. we hadnt done it yet, and wanted to give it a try! one problem tho, we forgot our sleds.. soo we just used some we found:)

the cardboard box worked great!!

I think i was praying that i didnt crash and die on the ice

Kar, getting ready for the ride!

we left them there for next time!

old main hill.. these stairs are a killer good workout:)

kar looking o so cute!

Last month we went to the krishna indian festival of colors in spansh fork!! and o my gosh it was soooo much fun! there were tons of ppl there! the roads driving there were crazy and we passed at least four bad crashes. and ppl were parking 2+ miles away for a parking spot!

Here is the temple! it was really cool, and pretty (from far away)
upclose i sware it is made out of stuco or plastic. haha

They had bags of colored chalk that you could buy and throw at eachother! it was crazy. everyone was covered in blue purple green orange yellow and pretty much every other color too! it was EVERWHERE!

They had a big dance and a bon fire and music!
it was lots of fun!

a few weeks ago me and my roomates and some other friends all decided that it would be fun to go on a hike up to the wind caves!! logan canyon is so close, it only takes about 5 min to drive up to. it wasnt very pretty that time of year BUT it was still fun and it was nice outside that night. we left about 7 and it was only a mile or so up. but its kinda steep so it took about an hour and on our way down it was pitch black! we only had 2 flashlights so it was kinda hard to see!
and kinda creepy when the deer took off running in the bushes around us and we couldnt see anything except their glowing eyes in the light! scary! haha

after our hike we had a campfire and cooked dutch oven cobler!!!! yum! it was sooo good!

it might not look amazing, but my tummy thought it was!

oh! and we roasted peeps! haha

me and kar sitting on the arch by the wind caves!

salt lake/draper temple fun!!

i love temples.

they are simply A-mazing!

&

i have never even been in one(after it was dedicated) but what i have seen..(pre dedication) they are beautiful. amazing. and i can hardly wait til i can go!!!

I love this gospel and i am soooooo thankful to have it in my life. I am SO lucky!

today me and karalee and olivia drove down to draper to go to the temple open house!!! and i loved it! we all loved it. and it was so PRETTY!

after the open house we drove back towards salt lake to get us some FOOD! :) yummy food. we stopped at gateway and went to a little hawiian food place and it was delish.

then after our bellys were full we did some walking around the mall and found some great deals!!:)

This cute CUTE cement/moss covered/fake tree stump was ONLY $2400!!! (crazy i know!)

and this head band....$50.

after gateway we went to temple square and watchd the joseph smith movie! if you havent seen that you gotta go! it is really good.. and so uplifting and sad/happy at the same time cuz it makes you wanna be a better person. :)

temple square was so gorgouse today! the salt lake temple.. mmm there is just something about it! i love it. OH! and how could we drive home without stopping at nielsens frozen custard!!!!! SOOOOO GOOOOD!! (well actually.. mine was kinda gross cuz they mixed chocolate surup in with my raspberry custard, wierd. but it was frozen custard so of course it was still yummy and i snarfed it down like i hadnt eaten in days. yum.)
