My Spring Break

Well this last week has been a much needed break for me. One of my best friends came into town to visit! Cody got baptized at the end of January and I was able to drop everything for a couple of days to be there for him! So this last week was full of adventure. Haha We climbed the "Y" with my sister Lindsey and my room mate Chelsea which was a blast! I feel like I should do that everyday because it was a lot harder then I thought it was going to be! Not working out for a couple of weeks because of my knee was probably the reason for that. This week I'm going to get back into working out though with Cristal, one of the girls I work with at Fat Cats. Anyways.... I'm getting off topic. After climbing the "Y" we went to a piano recital which was amazing! Driving down to Salt Lake City for the infamous Temple Square trip also took place. We went inside the North and South Visitor Centers, saw the Cristus and watched The Testaments. After the movie we walked around the grounds but unfortunately it was rainy and cold so we went inside the Joseph Smith Memorial Building to eat lunch. We took the elevator up to the top floors to take a look at The Roof Restaurant. I've always wanted to eat there ever since the movie "Charly". And now Cody and I have plans to eat there one night when he comes back for General Conference in a couple of weeks! I'm so excited! Oh and Cody also taught me how to skateboard after I told him that I knew how and let the thing slip right out from under me. Haha I haven't heard the end of that one. Cody loves to play chess and is extremely good at strategizing (and I'm not) so we played while he was here and he killed me each time! He thought it was going to be a good match because the first time we played was my first time ever and I just had beginners luck because it came really close! Before he left we drove to Utah Lake and took some amazing pictures. The view is beautiful out over the water and you can just look out over it and forget about everything. I loved that he came to visit me and we were able to spend quality time together. It was a blast to talk about the past and remember things that happened in High School and even earlier. Going back to school was pretty rough after having all of that time off. As well as was work. But I got through it and am having an amazing Sunday as always!
