All Good Things Come to an End!



Howdy, the vacation is going to be over after today. I hope I will survive it.

My trip to Idaho Falls was much more fun that I thought it would be. I was not excited for the long drives back and forth but I think the time on the road was worth it. My friend, Laura, has a wonderful little house in Idaho Falls. It is still very, very weird for my personal friends to own real estate. She was very nice to take my other friend, Kerri, and I in for the weekend.

We had lots of fun hanging out and getting caught up. The last time I saw Laura was about two years ago. I am a pretty bad friend, because that is also about how long Laura has owned her house. At one time, Laura, Kerri and I were roommates up in Logan. That seems like an eternity ago. We were only roommates for a summer but it had a huge impact on all of our lives, as most roommate situations do. Luckily, this was a good impact.

Saturday we went to a session at the Idaho Falls Temple. It was a wonderful experience. That temple is truly beautiful both inside and out(like most temples, of course.) After that, we walked along the falls and then headed to Rexburg. We stopped on the way for a great dinner at a little pizza place in Rigby, ID. Very, very good calzones! It was fun to be back in Rexburg. A flood of memories came rushing back into my mind. Lots of good times in Rexburg that is for sure! We saw the new temple there and it is so very beautiful. It has a great location right at the top of the hill so you can see if for miles! We got there just in time for the sunset which made the temple even look more spectacular, if that is even possible.

Overall, it was a great trip. Kerri and I enjoyed the road trip part as well. We sung our lungs out to Kelly Clarkson and a slew of other artists. We also sung the song that hopefully you can hear now in the background by Carrie Underwood. We love that song!

Well, I am off to enjoy the rest of my last day off. A trip to Walmart will be very exciting. Not the highlight though. Working out this morning was a highlight. I have never felt so weak in my life. I am doing a new program with one of my co-workers. It is intense. Hopefully, I will be able to be on the American Gladiators when I am finished! Oh wait, that isn't on anymore. I guess I will just have to be a buff girl without any T.V. show to be on!
