To anyone who still reads my boring blog I'm sorry i have neglected to write or put pictures on my blog for a while because one I'm lazy! And two... I've been traveling on a super long trip! We (as in my awesome family) are on a crazy trip and we've gone every where!!! And to remember where we went or which state we went to we are collecting Magnets! So lets see... we've been to: Salt Lake City, Utah (to see moms musical "1856 the musical" and to see grandma and Melanie)
Rigby, Idaho (spent time with ally and Ben, and Curtis Rachel and their kids.),
Aren't we just beautiful?!
Yellowstone Montana (to see where dad used to live and see his town. and to the Lewis and Clark caverns), I needed a picture of jonathan but the dumb thing wont turn!
I took this for ally... so here... i found your house for you! haha it was some random shack in the middle of no where...


South Dakota (Mount Rushmore, and Bear Country U.S.A., and the wall drug store "it's the biggest drug store in America", and the corn palace),

Minnesota (Went to visit the Mayo Clinic mom and dad said hi to everyone there, then to the mall of America!!! it was totally awesome! me and Jonathan shopped all day long! And then at the end of the day we all went and saw Get smart. It is seriously one of the funniest movies i have seen in a LONG time!),

Nauvoo, Illinois (Saw Sharon and Hugh on their Mission for the church. They are doing so great! It was lots of fun to see them perform), St. Louis, Missouri (went to the top of the arch!),

Wildlife Zoo

On may 9th i was invited by arielle Tanner to go to the zoo with a school of deaf kids! It was one of my favorite things that has happened in a long time! I was a little rusty at first and my partner (Travis) Didn't really want anything to do with me... haha he was kind of a bumb, haha, but he worked with me and we had a blast. we even had a partner her name was Kayla. She was also deaf and they were in the same class. Amy Brandon was her partner but she had to leave early so i had both hyper 14 year olds. I seriously had a blast!!!



me and kayla on the train! they loved this ride haha


One of the animals tried to eat travis' shirt so he freaked out and waited for me and kayla outside of the petting zoo... haha

Kayla and I rode together over the zoo...
Travis rode by himself (we were in front) and everytime he wanted to talk to us. He would shout my name for me to get kayla's attention. tell her, and then she would tell me. Well they would sign everything of course. But for some reason i never had any idea what Travis would sign. He was crazy. But i always understood everything kayla would sign... it was really funny!

Yes i did eat a sandwich for lunch... i was uber hungry!

This is travis being crazy on the ride home! haha it was funny. We were playing the abc game, were you take turns makeing a sign for each letter... you know the game.... and then after ward travis decided to stick his head out of the bus like a dog... and stick his tounge out. It was so funny!

Sorry it's taken me so long to post i've been CRAZY busy... And i spent one night updating and my computer didn't safe any of it... so it's just taken me forever!!!
