Red Sox!!

What a great way to start a week.. road trippin it to Colorado to watch the

Boston Red Sox take on the

Colorado Rockies!!!
It was a long & hot drive but oh so much fun :)

Sadly the Red Sox lost but it was still a pretty great game.

It was the best to go with my cute boyfriend Mike & my girlfriends!! Especially Karyn because she is the biggest Red Sox fan I know & she has taught me much about the game of baseball and the Red Sox team. I think she feels about the Red Sox how I feel about Johnny Depp... so that's really sayin something there!!

I am super grateful to Mike for being such a good sport about the trip & being willing to spend over 1,000 miles on the road with 4 girls. We are so funny & sometimes I don't know if he felt the same.. ha ha. Mike is such a good boyfriend & I love him for all he does for me!

And well of course, no real baseball game is legit unless you have a ballpark hot dog!! I was not let down at all!! Delicious. I loved this little trip & hope to make it to many more Red Sox games... especially ones at Fenway Park! Go Red Sox!!

Bye Bye Brother!!

Yesterday my little brother Kaden turned 14!

And today... he left for Spain.

I cannot believe it!! Although I am going to thoroughly enjoying the quiet his absence will bring I am gonna miss him over the next couple weeks. Kaden is going to Spain as part of a foreign exchange student program. He goes to a charter school where he has learned a TON of spanish and is going to Spain to further his learning. I am so proud of him and super jealous!

Kaden is such a caring, funny, and loving brother. I am so happy he gets to participate in something so neat! I love you Kade :)

College Days

My little sister McKall starts college in the fall at Utah State! This really freaks me out. But mostly it makes me jealous!!! I remember how much fun I had moving away to college... all the excitement & nervousness of being on your own for the first time & completely in charge of yourself. I think I was way more of a kid at college then any other place or time... ha ha.

So here are a few pics from my amazing Snow College days...

College is SO fun! I had the best experiences and really did grow up so much. I have never worked harder, learned so much, & come to know myself more then my 2 years at Snow! I am really excited for my sister to go out and have all this fun for herself. I love you McKall!!

Lately...

Lately....

I have really sucked at blogging.

My little sister graduated high school

I spend as MUCH time in the pool as possible :)

I see my cute Mike King whenever I can

I still work WAY to early in the morning.... :(

I'm trying to get things in order for nursing school

but mostly...

I miss Zambia all the time!!! I am heartbroken to not be going back this year & have made a goal to go back as soon as possible. It may be a few years but it will happen. Africa changed me for the better & I need to keep going back to remember the person I want to be. Maybe sounds ridiculous to have to travel so far to find myself but I swear... my heart belongs in Africa!!!
