My Summer Vacation

Okay so for this summer I went on a huge trip it was one of the most fun things ever. I met so many awesome new people and got to see and stay with my Amazing relatives. I was sad that i didn't take enough pics but thees will haft to do. my first stop was Youth Conference. all the youth met at the stake center in Hurricane at 6:00am Thursday (June 25th) we didn't end up leaving on the buses tell 9:00am so while we waited me, Megan and Shellie took pictures.
(Me) (Megan; is one of the coolest people you will ever meet. I had a lot of fun being with her) when we all got on the buses we headed for Salt Lake city, when we got there we went to a church building and in side was John Bytheway! that was a lot of fun to hear him speak. after we lift there, we went to a open house for the Oquirrh Mountain Temple. That was my first time going to a open house for a temple before, It was AMAZING it was just sooo peacefully and beautiful it was a wonderful experience to be able to go and do that. The next day we went and did baptisms for the dead in the Salt Lake Temple, that was was my first time in the Salt Lake temple, every time i go in to a temple it amazes me how strong the spirit is there, I love going to the temples. we all went skating after. I have never been skating before and I have only gone roller-blading ones for about 5 min. so i wasn't able to go super fast or any thing but i got to the point where i could go a normal speed and not hold on to any thing and it was sooo much fun. (skating is amazing I could do it for ever) (thees girls are awesome) at 6:00pm we went to a stake dance, there was supposed to be two other stakes from Salt Lake there but they never came only a few people from Salt Lake came so it was basically just are stake but it was still so fun. "thees are the temples I saw on my trip" (Oquirrh Mountain Temple)

...the next day we packed up and youth conference was over, while every one ells went home I staid in Salt Lake with my cousin Loren and his wife Jessica and there little baby Ethan while i was there we did some stuff on there house (Loren and Jess were so fun they made sure i had a wonderful time there) while I was there I also got to go see my aunts that was fun too, we made all sorts of cute little sighs and stuff.
(Loren, Jessica and Ethan) when I left Salt Lake I headed for LaBarg Wyoming to go stay with my aunt Karen, her husband Kenny and there son Tyler. (Tyler's my age) this is a picture of there little house, the right side is 100 years old and the left is 50, there house is so cool I love it.
while I staid with Karen and Kenny I had my own little room or so I thought it was my own. Up in the corner of my bedroom was my room mate, a huge spider :) it staid with me in my room tell I left
(thees are just pictures I took of my aunts flowers)
while I was at my aunts house I learned how to do a lot of stuff, we usually got up at 6:00am or so and start working we would paint, work on the garden, mowed the lawn, cook, ride horses to go round up cows and landscaping. I had so much fun with them. I also met a lot of amazing people there the one i hung out with most of all and was a blast was T.J. me and her were crazy, we had a lot of fun.
(Me and T.J.)
while I was in Wyoming we went to a lot of parades and rodeos and so forth. on the forth of July we went to a rodeo (my first one!) rodeos are awesome but my favorite part of them was the saddle bronc
(thees aren't people I know just people that were in the rodeo)
(in Wyoming there was so many moose's)
... almost every day we would go riding through the mountains
(the country up there was so beautiful)
(Me, Katrina, Grandma Westfall, Tyler and T.J.)
(Me, Tyler, Katrina and Jared)
(this is before and after pictures of me, when I left on this trip and at the end of this trip/when I am tan and not so tan :)
there was so much more that happened in Wyoming but it would take forever to tell it all so I'll leave it at, I had a wonderful time being there doing all the stuff, the new experience and being with all those amazing people. I left Wyoming on the 20th of July and went to Boise Idaho
with my cousin Katrina and her family. (there last name is the Westfall's) I staid in Idaho for a week and while I was there I went to a dance, went tubing (for the first time it is a blast) we went to the theater, went shopping and to the zoo. it was so cool at the zoo all the animals were up and doing things instead of just lying there.
me, Katrina (shes awesome) and Jared (hes fun)
then I went with the Westfalls to Nevada to are family farm and there we swam, saw family, plaid, fooled around, worked and just had an awesome time with every one. I met my parents at the family farm, and we went home on Saturday night. (August 3rd)
and that was my whole summer

Yeah, I figured you must have gone to Mutual. I had left before you came because we where going over to my house so my dad could teach us about photography. What are you doing over the break? Because I think we should do something so we don't waste a perfectly good 5 day weekend. I am going to go watch Sherlock Holmes with my dad now. Ta ta!
