Back to School

Well I am officially back in school in Logan. For all of you who don't know yet, I am going to start working towards going to grad school to get my masters degree in Water Wise Landscaping and Water Conservation. I am very excited. It's going to be a lot of work and big step in my life, but I am very excited and happy about the decision that I have made.

The first weekend of school, my friend Ellen and I decided that we didn't want to be in Logan and we wanted to do something fun. So we took a trip to Salt Lake and did things we had never done before. For example, I had never been to the Capitol and neither had she. We also went to Music and the Spoken Word which was incredible. Our friend Tiffany (aka Myrtle) met up with us on Saturday night. I loved it. It was a way fun weekend. We also were able to stop by and have dinner at the spaghetti factory to see our friend Heather who is a waitress there. We had a blast that weekend! It was hard to come back up and go back to class on Monday.

These pictures are all from our fun Labor Day Weekend in Salt Lake!! :D Enjoy! (oh and the pictures are small because they were copied from something else. I don't have these pictures saved on my computer yet. So they are mini versions of the pictures. Sorry if they are kind of hard to see!)

Life in California

Well I am back in Utah now. It's good and sad all at the same time. I really miss the people that I worked with and the friends that I made, but it's good to be home. While I was in Cali I got to do a lot of fun things. I went to the beach, I watched my friends water ski in the canal (total white trash I know), we went to the sequoia national forest a couple times, and it was just fun to be able to be there and do new things. I miss it a lot, but i'm ready to get back in to the swing of things with school. And finally graduate in May! YAY! so here are just a few pictures from my incredibly fun summer! I will post more in a few weeks of what it was like where I worked. At Monrovia Growers that is. :D






These are pictures of all of us when we went to Pismo Beach. Me, Liz and Jenny are in most of the pictures and then Nate is the guy. Jenny's boy Jarrod went with us, but I don't have any pictures of him. It was a blast going to the beach! I love the ocean. The water was freezing cold, but it was so worth going!









This was our incredibly fun trip to the sequoias. The second time i went was a blast and i got to see WAY more large trees! I seriously felt like a dinosaur was going to walk by because you could tell those trees had been there forever! I think the sequoias and the beach were my favorite things in California!

I will post again soon! I have a lot more pictures from my life in California! I just can't really take the time to do it today because I am moving. :)
