St. George trip

This weekend I was able to go all the way down to St. George and spend a few days with Ryan. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed my time down there, it was really hard to come back to school today and face the 30 degree weather again, it was in the 70's down there all weekend!!!

I mostly only have pictures from our Sunday activities, and Ryan has pictures from our Saturday activities, so I'll get those up here as soon as I can get them from him.

I drove down on Thursday afternoon and Ryan showed me around his campus, and it was so beautiful, it makes BYU-I look old and dumpy.

Friday I did homework for two hours while Ryan was in class, then we went down to St. George and went Mountain Biking, which was quite interesting. First of all I had to use Ryan's bike because it was the only one that was small enough for me, and it had the peddles that locked your feet in. So pretty much whenever we came to a big hill that I couldn't make it up, I would fall...with the bike...because I couldn't get my feet out of the peddles, I've got some sweet scratches and bruises from that. Then we went Rock climbing with another couple, and I mean real rock climbing, outside, on a rock, non of this gym rock wall stuff. It was really fun, I had never been real rock climbing before, but I definitely like it a lot more, and it was definitely a lot more challenging. After that we went to Darrin and Jenny's and was able to spend some time with them before we all headed to bed.

Saturday we got up and headed to Zion's, and hiked part of the subway, long story short...after many complications we all made it out after 9 hours of walking 13+ miles. We were so tired and just to glad to finally be done. I seriously got to the point where I didn't know how my feet were moving, they just were. That night we headed back to camp, had hot dogs and somores then headed to bed.

Sunday we got up, had breakfast and cleaned up camp then went to a local ward for church. After church we went to a part across the street and had lunch and took a short little nap out on the grass before we headed back into Zion's for a short little hike.

Well here are the pictures I have, enjoy:

We went for a walk around the St. George temple on Sunday afternoon

We did a short little hike in Zions after church on Sunday, so easy, I even did it in flip flops.

Oh I just LOVE him! At Zions

The Boys

Travis (Ryan's Cousin), Joni (Ryan's Cousin), and her fiance Greg, Me and Ryan, and Dan (friend of Ryan's).

So while we were driving through Zions, I was stuck in the back middle seat of the car and couldn't see anything, and I have never been to Zions and wanted to see it all, so I stood outside of the sun roof...don't tell my Dad, he'd kill me. lol.

We took a little power nap at this park after church and Travis wouldn't wake up, so all the guys went and jumped on him.

Travis sleeping, notice the handkerchief over his eyes...

Friday we went mountain biking in St. George, and my bike kept getting a flat tire, and Ryan was not very happy about that. You can't tell, but he's not smiling in this picture.
