Lake Powell!

This last weekend I got to go to Lake Powell! It was really nice to just get away and spend some time away from work and the troubles of life. I just got to enjoy the sun and water, the second of which I really love and don't get to enjoy nearly enough. This was the first time that I have ever been to Lake Powell, and it is an amazingly beautiful place! I was afraid to take my camera because we were camping on the beach and there was just too much sand, so I don't really have pictures, but just the chance to see the beautiful place that heavenly father created was just awesome! We even got to visit some indian ruins, and hike up to their houses and actually go inside them, it was so interesting, seeing stuff like that is one of my favorite things, it is so interesting to me, so I really enjoyed that part of the trip. I finally got a tan, and a very nice one if I do say so myself, I haven't been this dark in years and it feels great! I am just hoping that I can make it last and not let it fade away completely too soon. And yes I should take some self portraits while I've got it to show it off, we'll see if I find the time and ambition haha.

The trip overall was good, and I am glad that I went. It was about like the denver trip as far as planning and treatment from friends, but this time it was what I was expecting, and I decided to just enjoy and not worry, and I succeeded in that for the most part. :)

I also get to go on another trip in a couple of weeks, I am going to Iowa to visit my parents, sister and brother-in-law, and meet the triplets! I am excited to go and see them and spend some time with my parents, I haven't seen them in about 6 months, and I miss them. I am so grateful for my parents, they are so kind to me. When I call them it is so wonderful to be able to talk to people that like me, and want to hear what I have to say. It is pretty rare anymore that I get to do that, the people that I spend most of mine time with now, don't seem to really like me, they just tolerate my presence, or at least that is how they make me feel. So I am very grateful when I get to talk to my parents and other good friends and feel that they love me and want me to be there or want to hear what I have to say, it is a good feeling!

So thank you to those who make me feel loved and wanted! I hope you know who you are! I love you all :)

  1. I am glad to hear you enjoyed Lake Powell as much as I did! I was so happy I got to see you- it had been way to long! Good thing I had to make a potty break or we wouldn't have stopped! I am thinking I need another trip down there again to keep up my tan as well! Hope things keep looking up for you!
