Well, a lot has happened the past couple of weeks. I guess the biggest change in my life is that I moved back home. After a lot of paying and fasting, help from family, crying, and making a bigger deal then what needed to be made, I decided that school was the best option for me. So, ISU will be my second home this fall. I am taking a lot of math classes so I can teach math so I will be spending a lot of time in study sessions! Bring it on calculus!! It was really hard to leave Arizona. I met some amazing friends and will miss then terribly but they will just have to come and visit the great state of Idaho:) I am happy to be home though and have a lot of things planned before school starts.

So some things I have been doing...me, Roxy, and a couple of ladies in our ward took a trip to Zion's to hike the Narrows. Let me just say it was amazing! So pretty and something that I will never forget. It was so worth the 20 mile hike through freezing water, slipping on rocks, freaking myself out with flash floods and creepy noises, and spending time with Roxy and some great ladies. Would I do it again?? Heck yes!

Our family took our annual camping trip. This year we decided to camp in style. We stayed in a house in Bear Lake and it was the best idea ever!!! We played cards, played in the water, got sunburned, took family pictures, went through a cave, and made memories. Can't wait for next year!

I had a birthday, shoot hooray! It was a great birthday because for one, it was my birthday, and second, I got to spend it with the people I love:) I got scrubs (cause I am now a CNA), books, clothes, a blanket, jazz apparel, and flowers! I'm a lucky girl!

Me, mom, Whitney, Susan, Jessica, Kathy, Lisa, and Natalie hiked Table Rock. I love that hike and we had a great time. This year we went up and back down the back way. It was a little longer, but easy on the knees! Ended the hike with square ice cream at the Dam store:)

I went to West Yellowstone with Brett and his family. I about froze my butt off learning how to surf, but it was worth it. Brett's family was great and after stressing about getting beat up (if you know the story), I made it through the weekend and had an amazing time!

As for now, I will be working at Safe Haven working on the activities committee. I am super excited about playing bingo and not having to wipe butt's! One more week till school starts so the plan is to play hard!!!
