BaHaMaS!!!

There are 32 singles (about 16 from Nashville and the rest Utah, Arizona and Texas) going on a cruise to the BAHAMAS!!! A kid in Nashville found really cheap tickets and organized it all. We will be gone from June 5 - 8, short but sweet! I've never been on a cruise or even needed a passport so I'm pretty excited for it! Just wanted to give y'all a heads up and maybe make you a little jealous. I will be posting post-paradise pictures though, don't you worry!

Reunion reminiscing

I'm getting excited to see y'all for the reunion this summer so I was looking through the old pictures of 2007's reunion. I thought these two pictures were funny. When Nate is getting fixed all the boys were staring but when Shelly was getting fixed Shannon and I were in the zone! I'm sure I was just worried about moving and the photographer having to fix me again! I can't wait to see y'all so soon.

Trip to Nauvoo!

Last weekend I had such a great time with Paul, Lindsay, Sabrina and Lucy. It was just fun to be with FAMILY. It has been a while and I was just happy to be with them. Below are a few pictures and even a video for the viewer's pleasure. The neatest part for me was seeing Edmond Durfee's grave and learning about his story and also getting to do baptisms with Paul. We also saw the red brick store, Joseph, Hyrum and Emma's graves and took of tour of Carthage Jail. There is so much more to do there but we didn't have time with such a short weekend. It was an 8 hour drive for me on Friday and 8 hours again on Sunday but it was well worth it. Thanks Paul and Lindsay! Love you guys.

Last few days!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRITTAN!

Last Saturday was the Southeast Region of the United States' Service Day and also the Nashville Marathon! It was a busy but awesome day. Sarah, Lori and I volunteered at Corral #9 (the corral our friends were starting their race in) at the marathon. We had to be there at 4:30a.m. The race didn't start until 7:00a.m. We were done volunteering around 8:30 so Lori and I rushed to the church to give blood (part of our service). It took longer than we were planning. As soon as we were done we went back to the marathon to see our friends cross the finish line. The best part of the day of course was that it was 87 degrees outside!!! Then, Sarah, Lori and I volunteered at the 2nd Harvest Food Bank where we prepared lunches for underprivileged kids. Then that night the YSA had an ice cream social.

Tonight some friends and I went to the Bluebird Cafe to see our friend perform. He is a singer/songwriter out here and pretty amazing! The Bluebird is also where Faith Hill was discovered! I took my camera just in case anyone famous walked in but I didn't see anyone. One of these days I will be standing next to someone famous.
