Good Times > Sad Goodbyes

Hey Fam, Friends, and random creeps on my blog!

I kind of fell off the face of the earth for a little and I know you are all just dying to hear about my

boring life huh?;) Well some of you HAVE been asking how lake powell was and let me just say..

IT WAS AH-MAZING.

And now I finally have the time to write about it! I can't wait for you to read all about it! So here ya go!


As long as I can remember I have always wanted to go to lake powell with my close friends. And

thankfully I have the sweetest, most darning friends I could ever want. We are pretty much sisters :).

We grew up together and pretty much do everything together.. Most friends drift off or go separate

ways later on but we have been together since the beginning! Thats why this trip was so fun…because

there was no drama, no cliques, nothing..Just a bunch of girls having fun!


Anyways, we had an ENTIRE week at lake powell.. Sunday-Sunday! It was HEAVEN! If you

haven't been there pack your bags RIGHT NOW…And I mean it.. you go and see what I am talking

about! Or this post is probably really confusing to you and you are probably wondering, " whats so

great about a week at a smelly lake..I have one 30 min away thats just fine."..Uh Nope Lake powell is

Lake powell.. Cant beat it. I think you will know what I mean after you see some pictures..Every day

we were out in the water. We went boating, tubing, wake boarding, knee boarding, Zep boarding etc

etc.! We played games, danced, tanned, explored and to sum it up..we never wanted it to end.

 It was the good life.

 And not to mention… it is so BEAUTIFUL there! I think my favorite part was sleeping on top of the

 houseboat because you can see so many stars it's crazy. Oh and there was no cell service.. which to

some people is crazy because they can't live without their little box but to me I loved every minute of it!

 I loved that we all just talked and had fun without that distraction always there..We got a break from

 the world and I think it's better that way!

As I am writing this I seriously have no idea how to sum the whole thing up… It was so fun..especially

 for me because the times I have gone to Lake Powell something always bad happens.. I enjoyed the

trips but we have some curse or something…usually it's the boat sinking, stranded and dying etc.. But

glad that curse didn't follow me! I am so grateful for such amazing friends and especially the Edwards

for taking all of us crazy girls! They really are the best.


Sad Goodbyes…

Sadly, once Lake Powell was over that meant that it was time to say goodbye to our best friend

Kristine… She left back to Norway the week we got back..It was so hard. I have never had to say

goodbye to one of my best friends so coming together for that was really hard for all of us. Lets just say

we were the center of attention in the Airport! We all were wailing..literally like wailing and bawling

 our eyes out.. I can only imagine how it going to be when our friend Brittany leaves on her Mission

next year!

Kristine is such an amazing girl.. She helped build all of our testimonies and helped us see

whats most important in life and and when she left I think we all had changed in some way. She is the

most amazing friend any girl could have! We can't wait to see her again!!
