Spring Break 2008 Hawaii!!

Spring Break 2008- Hawaii!

So many of you know I went to Hawaii for spring break. I have always wanted to go. One of my friends I went to school with at BYU is from there and Drew and Stormi currently live there, so I thought great, now would be a good time to go and visit! First off, I thought I landed in paradise and in a different country. It was a lot different than the prairies in Kansas that's for sure. I also new it was paradise because my allergies cleared up once I got on the island, not to mention the perfect amount of humidity.

Well I got to do some great things. I went to the beach A LOT. I went to the Polynesian Culture Center, got to see the temple, hung out at the North Shore, saw Pearl Harbor, snorkeled and swam with the fish at Hanauma Bay, shopped at the swap meet (tons of outdoor shops around the stadium in Honolulu, and much more. I wanted to cliff dive while I was there, or jump off a rock or something, but Malia (my friend I stayed with most of the time) said it was more dangerous than it already was because the water was extra choppy and there were big waves. Oh well, I can try it when I go back. Drew and I hiked to a pretty waterfall and Malia and I swam out another waterfall in a botanical garden area, what's with Hawaii and all the waterfalls?? Drew also took be body boarding. I am so glad he did this, and I felt my experience in Hawaii was complete when he did. By the way, little Kai Drew's son is adorable, although, Drew stole my name!!!!

So I didn't take home a polynesian lover, but I wanted to. The BYU-Hawaii dancers at the PCC were very good-looking, well I can grab one of them when I go back! The flight back was horrendous because I lost about 6 hours and took a red eye where I couldn't sleep:( I think I missed a days worth of sleep. Well, I am finally adjusting after the trip. The first week back was so busy with a paper and test due. Hawaii was wonderful though, a dream come true!

Katie and Andy's Wedding

This was Katie and Andy's wedding after Christmas. She moved out of the house, so now it is just me and my other roommate Jamie. We have a blast but miss Katie and her spunk! Katie's husband is a sniper in the Army. It has been cool learning more about the military through Andy. Andy always cracks Jamie and I up. He is sooo funny and is amazing at the guitar! I love these guys!

Christmas 2007

Halleluia! I'm updating my blog!






So I have had multiple comments about how old my posts are and that I haven't done anything on my page since September. Well it's all true. I have neglected my website. Well, I finally felt motivated to update. I love checking out Tim and Alicia's, Elise's, Tyler and Nikki, and Drew and Stormi's blogs along with others.


Well it has been a busy time. Lets see, well I'm a full-time student working part-time and also seeing clients in the evenings, so I don't have a lot of free time, howeve this semester has been LOTS better than last....man it was brutal. Here are some pictures from Christmas with family. This was my recovery period. I was pretty burnt-out from school, my crazy preschool kids, and seeing lots of clients before Christmas. I was soooo excited to spend time with the WHOLE family this Christmas, not to mention playing with my chubby, silly, squeely, all personality, two nieces! I was literally addicted to them while I was home. I wanted to eat them up! It has been awesome to see how they have grown as well!
