Hanging With Family

Well after working 41-1/2 hours in 3 days, I finally got a little break! Brent, Ashley, and Brad came to Colorado, so I was able to hang with them. I met up with Ashley, Annie, and Mikayla and go shopping Thursday morning. I spent a lot of money, but I got a really cute outfit and a way cool new phone (that I am still learning how to use!) After that Ashley and I enjoyed a nice lunch before meeting up with Katie so we could head to Jared’s school. I love art schools, the people there are all so friendly. It was fun to have a little tour and see some cool art. That night Ashley and I watched “Enchanted” while Jared and Katie took a little nap (don’t worry guys, I’m used to watching movies by myself :^) I spent the night at the Showell’s so we could leave early in the morning for the Springs.

Jared's Campus

Friday morning there were no b-ball games (the reason Brent and Brad came to CO) so Brent, Brad, Ashley, and I headed down to Colorado Springs to see the sights there. It was a sunny, windy, cold, beautiful day! We went to Garden of the Gods and Cave of the Winds. That was a first for Garden of the Gods for me, so it was neat. That evening we went to see the traveling Rembrandt art exhibit which was at my church. That art is so old, yet it looks brand new… it was really cool. People are so talented, it seriously blows me away! After the art exhibit we had dinner at Jared and Katie’s and hung with them the rest of the evening.

Saturday I got to dye Easter eggs at Annie’s- good times! We all went to Jim N’ Nicks BBQ for lunch before the guys headed off to their b-ball games. So, Ashley and I got to hang the rest of the day. We drove down to the temple and went to Deseret Book before coming back to my place and playing the Wii! Jared, Katie, and Cayden joined us for a bit as well. Brent and Ash took off super early Sunday morning. I’m glad they came to visit me in Colorado. It was nice to see them and fun hanging with them.

Easter Sunday was a wonderful day. It was absolutely gorgeous weather here- got to love CO! After enjoying a peaceful morning and a great three-hour block of meetings, I headed out to Annie and Steve’s for an Easter feast. Annie is such a good cook and they are always so nice to invite me. I had a good time visiting with everyone. We also had an Easter Egg hunt and the Easter Bunny brought me a new purse… thanks Easter Bunny!

Cave of the Winds

Well, that was my weekend…. It was a very welcomed and needed break. Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Holiday! Love to you all!
