My life this last month

Do you want to know what has been going on in my grand life this last month?!!! If not please stop reading, but if you want to know keep reading because I did some grand stuff!!!

The start of this month was spring break and instead of going home for the break I went on a four credit backpacking and kayaking class! It was such a blast! We went to St. George, Camp Meed to the Arizona hot springs, and visited Vegas for a night! Yes you read right, we went to Vegas on a school backpacking trip!

Here is the short version of the trip: We backpacked at this cool place until it started to rain/snow on us so we had to travel about two hours down the mountain in mud to get down to the bottom. Of course I loved this, but the other girls didn't think it was as fun haha. We played a new card game (well at least for me and a couple other of us) called idiot! Oh it is the most addicting game ever and we pretty much played that a scum all trip. I brought four decks with me because always on camping trips I always want to play cards!

Needless to say it was a great idea! We also meet a crazy man, but I won't go into details with that. I'll just say he was for sure CRAZY and we were all kind of scared including our teacher. We stayed together for the rest of the night or at least had six people with us. We also meet our fair share of animals! One night while playing Idiot two rats decided they wanted to play with us and one just so happened to sit on the girlliest girl there haha! It was sooo funny!

The whole trip was a blast! We became pretty close as a group because we only had about 12 students on the trip. I sure did miss everyone once I came home and slept in my own bed and didn't wake up with them all around.

Of course I have been playing sports like crazy as always and I share that before so I won't go into detail about that now. However, now I am on an Ultimate Frisbee and Softball team now. :-)

Wednesday and yesterday were a blast too! One of my roommates from last fall came down and boy did I miss her! Carlee came down for Western Swing Wednesday and so we went and then of course got yummy Snow Creams after! Goodness I forgot how much I loved swing seeing as I have been slacking this semester and haven't gone since October before she came. :-/ However, this problem will be fixed for the rest of the year. Anyways at Swing we spent a lot of time with Sam, a guy who lives across the hall from me, and his two friends that came down for the night and the next day.

They invited us to go Four Wheeling with them yesterday and that was a blast! I skipped my class to go (which was just circuit training so it wasn't a big deal to miss plus Carlee was there right?) They were so cool to invite us and not only did we we go Four Wheeling but we also went shooting, into the mines, and off roading! It was such a blast! I have always loved Four Wheeling, but yesterday I decided to go a little bit crazy. I went off a big hill/jump and was able to get all four of the wheels off the ground on my second try and I also flipped the Four Wheeler, which was my first time ever doing that! Of course when I told my mom about yesterday all she could say was "Remember no dangerous things"... haha sorry mommy!

I am so GLAD they invited us and that I missed class to go spend more time with Carlee and the boys. Such a fun day! As you can see from the pictures I got a little muddy and I won't even go into the details of what my shower looked like after!

This month has been a blast and these next few weeks of school is looking to being just the same. However, I am going to be doing more school work and actually attending class. :-)
