summer is not my favorite season in utah. unless i'm sitting next to a body of water. when i grow up i'm moving northwest. oregon, washington, northern cali, or alaska. mark my words.
cycling on the legacy parkway trail just isn't the same as my routes in southern utah. but, there is one section of the trail called birnham wood. all they need to do is name a section dunsinane and we'll have a full-fledged shakespearean tragedy on our hands.
life has been going 100 mph and i don't think it will slow down until i'm retired, living in my winnebago travelling the u.s. with my handsome, charming hubby.
i made up new kesha lyrics to fit that one song..."wake up in the morning feelin' like p-diddy. i don't know how to sing but i make lots of money. i'm really really smart but i write stupid lyrics, they play me constantly on the radio so everyone can hear it....pedicure on my toes toes blah blah blah blah blah blah"
on the other hand, my life will be complete in just 15 days. (click me! click me!)
it's good to be home with my family. except i think kerri is getting sick of sharing a bed with me. (yes, i have my own bed. no, i don't sleep in it) and they left me this weekend. with absolutely no food in the house.
i went to bear lake and discovered my new favorite dessert (second only to mint choc. chip ice cream)--chocolate covered raspberries. HELLLLOOOO heaven in mouth.
i decided i want to go on a mission for the lds church. my papers are almost in but not quite cause guess what? the last thing i need is my wisdom teeth x-rays. i went in thrusday morning to get them and the dentist said her machine wasn't working. which means now i have to wait till monday. which makes me want to cry. or scream, seeing as i don't cry. either way i just want to goooooooooooo.
peace+love
at the cave it was about 40 degrees which was quite refreshing...the tour guide seemed extremely thrilled to be leading a bunch of 12-17 year old girls--especially when she turned out the lights at the end to show how dark it was and everyone screamed. and i quote- "please don't scream. it's actually really anoying"...oh man did we get a kick out of that...she had no idea we'd be using that line all week...
besides waking the girls up in the morning with my uke, i was in charge of water games...which became really easy because mostly they just wanted to do their own thing in the water...the highlight was probably spending wednesday boating...what was supposed to be 5 hours turned to 8 because certain girls (and a leader, i won't name names) were enjoying being beaten about on the tube just a little too much...then of course we had to wakeboard...anyway, malissa mabey and i decided to tube together and we told the bishop (our driver) to show no mercy...i ended up with a black eye and very sore body for the next 2 days...but it was totally worth it...then you compare that abuse with watching the bishop then bro. whiting abuse each other on the tubes and you'd think malissa and i were ametures...but probably the highlight was kerri, camille zesiger and i tubing together...we were going straight cause we were headed back to camp so we decided to stand on the tube...all three of us got up, then kerri decided to push us off...according to my mom, it looked "classic"-if only there was a video camera...
besides spending a lot of time in the water we hiked and did geo-cashing, sang around the campfire, cooked most dinners over the fire, and had a luau complete with amazing skits...my mom and i slept on the beach under the stars every night
probably my favorite priesthood leader ever and a great next door neighbor, Bro. Whiting really got his groove on at campfire singing.
lar dog and me looking so good in our matching swim suits--if you look closely you might see the sick tat all the leaders got for boating...he he he
