Pictures!

I probably only have 5 people that read this, but for those 5 people I am going to post some pictures of my trip to Calgary.


The first day Randy picked me up at the airport. We went to chili's and just hung out all day. then we went to dinner at my parent's house. We love to walk around the pond in front of my house, so this time we took my mom's camera and did a mini photoshoot.

This one is definitely a favorite.

Prettiest sunset!

On Thursday we didn't do much but watch some tv, and he made me breakfast for dinner. How awesome is that? I even got to watch the season premiere of Grey's anatomy. He sure knows the way to my heart.

On Friday, he took me up to Banff for the day. It was so much fun. We ate at Tony Roma's, then we just walked around.

We love wearing goofy hats.

Then we walked down to the Bow Falls. It was so fun.

After that, we decided to go on the gondola up to the top of the mountain.

and it was windy, and I was wearing a dress. But, it still rocked! After we took the gondola back down we went to the hot springs. SO FUN! We decided we were pretty tired so we went back home and went to Chili's again. (Now I've eaten at all of them in Calgary.) We just hung out all night and watched movies.

Saturday we decided to eat at Peter's (the best drive-in) and on a whim we went to the zoo. I got to see my zebras.

And I just added this picure because it's silly and accidental.

The rest of the week I didn't really take pictures but we sure did a lot of stuff. I can't wait to go back. I love Calgary! I'll be there in 2 weeks! AHH!

And I was going to ask, if anyone knows of any job openings or maybe like a nannying job will you let me know? I'm trying to find myself a job in Calgary.

new header

so i redid my blog header with help from my sister.
i think it's freakin cute.


i spent all day friday with the allen men. (andy, charley, and my dad) as they raced in the Tour de Utah. Actually, it wasn't really a race (but don't let them know). I followed them from Riverton to Nephi. It was really fun. I would just drive, park, sleep and wait for them to catch up.
We stopped in a dumpy town called Goshen, then we stopped in Mona (which was way cooler.). This old lady on a four wheeler stopped to talk.
We ate at a great restaurant in Nephi and I left them at a Best Western and headed off to Logan to see Sandra!

It was a reaaaaalllly long weekend, but I loved it! 18 more days!!! :)
