An Update on My Life

I thought that I would do a post that highlights the latest happenings in my life.  I graduated in December with my Bachelor's in Business Administration...YAY for being done with school!! It has been kind of weird getting used to not having school while everyone else is still in it.  But I do like not having to go to class, study, do homework, or deal with any of those stresses anymore! This will mostly be a picture post of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and my trip to San Diego.  It was so fun having everyone home for Christmas.  Jill, Christian and the boys were at my parent's house for Christmas morning.  It was so fun having the boys there on Christmas morning to open presents.  Kyle, Gretchen and the girls came over later for dinner and to open their presents.  Jill, Christian, Jason and I got to go snowmobiling up on the Big Horns one day.  It was a beautiful day and we had loads of fun!!

I headed back to Logan a little bit earlier than I normally would have to go on a road trip with a group of friends.  We stayed the first night in St. George then headed to Las Vegas for New Year's Eve.  The Strip was craziness that night!!! We did a lot of walking around and people-watching...oh boy!  We ended up getting stuck in the parking garage for 2 1/2 hours that night- not fun! My cousin Jason and his family were kind enough to let all 8 of us stay at their house that night...which was gorgeous!  We then headed on to San Diego where we stayed 3 nights.  We went to the beach, some went surfing, ate yummy food, went to the Mormon Battalion Visitor's Center, and went to the San Diego Zoo.  Andy, Hillary and I were able to go to baptisms in the San Diego Temple one morning.  It was such an amazing experience.  It was definitely different than going to one of the Utah temples...it was a very personal and special experience here!  Half of the group stayed in St. George for another couple days while the rest drove the rest of the way back home.  It was such a fun trip and made some great memories!!
