The Fall Break...

Hi all,

Today is the Monday after the fall break, and I am tired and worn out but looking back I had the funnest time ever. It started out with the much needed girls time, and I know this might seem a little lame but here is the itinerary of my last week starting with Monday of last week.

MONDAY- I slept in until 11:30 then I got up and cleaned my room and worked on some homework and I just chilled at my apartment. It was way relaxing. I did make a nice little mess it was fun watching the papers fall to the floor.  I then talked to my little sister who is teaching English in China, into the wee hours of the morning.

I made that mess! Yep I did! 

TUESDAY- I got up went on a hike with a few friends of mine. Tell you the truth I was tired and not really wanting to go but I am so glad I went on the hike. We did a hike called Dog Lake. It is one that can be accessed either from Big Cotton Wood Canyon or Mill Creek Canyon.  This is the 4th time this year I have done the hike and I must really enjoy it to keep going. Here are some of the highlights from the hike.

We went to Dog Lake, though one day I want to hike to Desolation Lake!

Nap time by the lake! 

Okay we will smile for one more picture! 

WEDNESDAY- This is when the fun started! I got up and packed and headed over to my friend J's house to meet up with a group of friends. We were headed to southern Utah, Goblin Valley to be more exact. It was so much fun. So it was a 4 or so hour long drive down there. We got there and set up camp and then we went and hiked Canyonlands national park that is over in that part. It was fun here is the highlights from that hike!

 

Everyone's imitating there favorite wall art! 

                                      

Yeah we hiked out in the dark cause we are cool like that. 

Thursday:  We got up and yes we did go camping! Anyways we got up and we got ready and we headed over to Ding and Dang Slot Canyon! Here are the Highlights from that amazing hike!

When we were all worn out and tired we headed back to camp and had a fun time: Here is the highlights. 

We played music and talked and had a fun time!

Friday: We got up and took down camp in the rain. Yep it rained on us and luckily none of my stuff got to wet.

Taking down camp

Once camp was taken down we headed back to Goblin Valley, this time only the men in the group went and played among the goblins because it was raining and cold and I was tired and worn out. Here are the highlights though: 

Did I mention while we were back at Goblin Valley it rained really, really hard on the men! Once they were done playing in valley of Goblins we drove home. Later Friday Night, I went over to my friends house and watch the Lord of the Rings the extended version and I would like to say I didn't fall asleep at all!!!

SATURDAY: I played catch up and hung out in my apt. Felt good to stay home. Then my friend held a Feast of the Tabernacles and I went to that then went to a Lego birthday party!

Add the feast of Tabernacles! 

Sunday: I went to church and then went to my friends house and chilled. We did go to a pumpkin party, that was way fun! 

I would have to say Last week was the best week for hiking and hanging out with friends and making new friends. 

As Always Thanks for Reading!
