A Week of Adventure and Fun!

Man, life is so great, you know!?  It was such a busy week.  I feel like these last few/next few are more like my letters to the world again.  Oh well! Maybe if I have some deep thoughts about some random subject I can add them during the week.  So...on to the week!

Monday
We went hiking for Home Evening!  It was SO fun!  The initial hike was super steep, but it was a REAL hike ;D  No paved trail.  When we reached the "destination" there was a GORGEOUS waterfall.  We waded through the freezing water, sacrificing for a good picture :D

There were people scaling the rocks (look behind me), so I decided we should climb higher too!  We didn't climb by the waterfall, but climbed quite a ways up on some rocks.  Rock climbing is SO fun!  Who knew!?  And even more--who knew I could actually do it!?  There was a gorgeous view of the valley from the top.  This is a pic of me and the view and then some of my friends climbing back down.

That night, we watched Pirates 4 for my first time.

Tuesday
Institute forum taught by Mayor Applegarth.  'Twas good!

Wednesday
Our chuch's floor was just refinished, so they have to keep the doors open from 9am-9pm to air it out.  I was in charge of guarding it from 6pm-9pm.  I got to talk to tons of people from PA which was great!


Thursday
I was supposed to have Cinderella rehearsal, but it got canceled.  I ended up going to an acting workshop with my neighbors.  They had guests from Broadway who came to teach.  It was fun to watch!

Friday
I got to do nothing Friday night, which was pretty great!!

Saturday
FULL day!
6:30am--helping Hillary set up for a garage sale
9am--I though I was going to help clean the temple grounds, but I was off by a day, so I went to the South Jordan Country Fest Parade with Tawni, Brooke, Curtis, and Lucy.   Check out our awesome hats!

1pm Cinderella Pit Orchestra Rehearsal
3:30pm We got to go help at a soup kitchen downtown.  It was a neat opportunity

10pm Movie at Michelle's.  I got to watch Ocean's 11 for the first time--love it!

Sunday
My cousin TJ received the Melchizedek Priesthood, so we headed up to Oakley.  I got to go for another ride with my Uncle up the canyon.  So gorgeous!

It's another great week ahead!  Roomie reunion (with MEGHANN!!), Cody gets home, and the Summit!!
