Just Reminiscing

Colors

What a good way to spend a Saturday night, outside on the lawn listening to great music. We went to the Colors concert at the Sandy Ampitheater for Clay's birthday. It was a blast, the music was great and the ampitheater atmosphere is always amazing.

One Project Down...

Well, two weeks of school and one project completed. Luckily the first project was a group project because it was a quick one. We had to design a small house for IDEC and affordable housing in less than a week. Our final results turned out great though, Dusty had the idea to mount our project on cardboard which was an awesome idea! I love projects and I love design but I don't know how ready I am for late nights and long weekends in the studio. Welcome back to school!

Providence Cave

Saturday evening...what a great night to go exploring in Providence Cave. It is an hour drive from Logan up a dirt road and then a twenty minute hike to the opening which is merely a hole in the ground. To get into the cave is a pretty tight crawl, some spaces you really have to squeeze through and you get really dirty and I mean really dirty.

Once we got to the really large cavern, which was amazing that it was this huge space inside the mountian we opened up glow sticks and created our own starry sky. And then had fun taking pictures.

Clay was checking my head after I ran into a rock, i don't know where it came from, all I know is that it hurt and the so called dirt in my hair was actually a little blood. I was okay though and we kept on going.

Wow, we were dirty when we were done, it felt good to be back out after our three hour adventure. The air seemed so warm when we got out of the cave. Jo and Ryan were glad to be out and away from any bats.

Boy could they scream...

Back to Logan

It's back to Logan. A new house with a new job, but old friends and good old Logan. I love the quaint little house that we will be living in till Spring, it has tons of little nooks and crannies and lots of character. The only downside are the little box elder bug friends and my summer roommates pet snake! Yes a snake! I can't wait for Abby to move in, just three weeks!

Twenty One

Twenty one... I had a great birthday this year as always. I have such great friends and family that never let the day go by unnoticed. My mom and I went up to Park City for the day and went shopping and also rode the Alpine Coaster. It was a blast, ridng down the mountian on a track in a sled, zooming through trees and winding around and around. I am just especially grateful my mom snapped this great picture, along with many other blackmail photos on the coaster. Happy Birthday today Dad!

Palmyra

During the week my mom and I rented a car (with a GPS) and took a five hour road trip to Palmyra. It was nice to get out of the city and see the beautiful countryside of upstate New York. It is so Green! We were able to see Joseph Smith's house, Hill Cumorah, the printing press of the Book of Mormon, and my favorite- the Sacred Grove. It was a fun little trip and I loved walking the places that we always read about.

One Last Week

One Last week in New York City... It has been 7 weeks living in Harlem, 6 weeks interning for Bunny Williams, and now one last week to play and have a good time. It started out great given the oppurtunity to be on the Early Show and see the Fray perform. Mom and Susan came that same day, I took the subway out to meet them at the airport and we hauled their luggage back through rush hour traffic. Thursday night we all went and saw Mary Poppins on Broadway! What a show! I love Broadway and the amazing productions, i still can't figure out how they fit a coat rack in Mary Poppins Bag!

The Last week of New York was great, having my Mom and Susan there was a lot of fun we packed in all New York City has to offer in just a few short days from Wall Street to Canal Street, to Battery Park and Serendipity, we did it all!
