TO ZION NATIONAL PARK



So I had an amazing weekend! Me and the girls woke up at 4 a.m. on Saturday and drove down to Zion National Park. We hiked up to observation point (an 8 mi hike) If you ever plan on doing a hike that long make sure you take more than four bottles of water for yourself. HaHa. The fact that it was 110 degrees didn't help much either. None-the-less it was amazing!!! That is me, dangling my legs over the edge of a cliff. That was about halfway up the trail.

The one on top is at the top. 6508 ft up. Neeldess to say there were amazing views. More pics are on facebook is you're interested : )

Weekend in Sin City

So fourth of July weekend was the best! I left Utah Thursday at five right after i got off work. I got to Mark's house around 9 that night :) After I said my hellos Mark and I went and hung out with some of his friends and went hot tubbing. Then we left and went back to his house and headed to bed. Friday Mark had to work til six :( but Melissa and Mike (his siblings) and I went and swam at Melissa's best friend's pool, where we watched their genius of a friend Casey dive in to the 5 ft pool and break his nose. When Mark got off work we went out to Applebees with his fam. Afterwards, Mark and I hung out with another group of his friends. When we left their house, we drove out to the Vegas Temple. It was beautiful!!!! I loved it :) Saturday Mark, Mike, their dad, and I went dirt biking! When we got back to the house we cleaned up and got ready for our fourth of July barbeque! I met some more of Mark's aunts, uncles, and cousins. His fam is SO MUCH fun. Seriously. After we all ate, we went to this amazing park by Mark's house and played frisbee and went long boarding (my new favorite hobby!) For the fireworks, we went on Mark's balcony because you can see the strip from it :) Mackenzie, can I just say that his sister reminds me of you! We ended up singing patriotic songs and Melissa and Melinda danced for us. HaHa. Then we went out in the street and popped a few fireworks of our own. Sunday was pretty restful. We just went to church then came home, napped, and then went long boarding at the park again and flew a kite! After the park we came home and Mark did my toes! hehehe. He's the best. Monday morning sucked. That drive home is the worst!!!!! I had to leave at 5:30 am to make it back to work on time. I fall asleep everytime! ugh. I can't wait til Mark gets back here...Well now that I have given you a day by day log of my weekend, I suppose I should go do something productive with my life.

Love!
