California Fun





I was able to take a week off of work this month and go to California with some friends. It was a lot of fun, although I will have to explain most of it rather than show it through pictures as I dropped my camera in water and wasn't able to do much picture taking after that. While there, I was able to meet up with my sister Heidi, who just happened to be there at the same time visiting a friend of hers. We went to Disneyland, SeaWorld, and Universal Studios. It was a great way to overcome my fear of Rollercoasters!! I loved it. My only other time riding a rollercoaster was the NewYork NewYork in Las Vegas - I did not like that at all. But now I am happy to say I enjoy riding them. If any of you are going to Disneyland anytime soon ride the rollercoaster in the California Adventure park.
Above are some pictures I was able to take before I drowned my Camera in the water (the picture of the fish is right before it happened) And then an after picture of the shots my camera takes now :(
It was a fun trip though and I enjoyed having some time off before starting my summer classes and returning to work.

Announcement!!!!!!!

Soo, i've been dating this guy and we are eng......umm, wait - that's not it, sorry to get your hopes up. What has really happened is that I was accepted into the University of Utahs Health Promotion and Education Program. The best news is that I actually decided what I want to do and am very excited about it. I will be done in two years. Starting this fall will be the first time I will be going to school full-time since 2001 - so it's been a while, but I've been going part-time long enough I think I will not need to worry.
Also more good news is that Mom is coming into town tonight so I will be able to spend some time with her. Jesse will probably come for the weekend, Cooleys on thursday, Alycia is always here, and I will see Heidi on Saturday in California, and on our way to Sea World we will be passing through Stuart's Mission. So basically I will be near all of my family members this next week except for my dad - :( I wish I could see him more often, but hopefully soon that will happen as well.

Cannon Beach, Oregon






Alycia, Tyson and I were able to go on a trip to Oregon for work. We had meetings on monday and were able to spend time sunday touring around with Kirk and Linda Arnell. These pictures are from Cannon Beach. The rock you see in the pictures is call Haystack Rock - which may look familiar to any who have watched the movie "Goonies". Even with the fog and overcast day, it was beautiful.
