Donut Falls

Back in May, Jonathan and I hiked up to Donut Falls up Big Cottonwood Canyon. I like going up there because my great-great grandpa McMillan would hike up that canyon to cut down wood for his family.  After we reached the falls, I went exploring on the rocks and logs. Jonathan didn't feel like joining me instead he took pictures of me climbing around. Even with all the warm weather, there was a lot of snow and even more mud on the trail! Naturally, we had donuts to celebrate our hike! Spiritual Enlightenment:  For the Beauty of the Earth

May Happenings

May went by in a blur, mostly because we were still recovering from Jonathan's graduation festivities. Amy R. sent my birthday present with tons of confetti in the box. Yes there is still confetti in our apartment to mix with the confetti I made for Jonathan's graduation party. My dad accidentally left his Book of Mormon in the car he rented during his trip. This is the one he used on his mission and is overflowing with insight and notes. Thankfully, the car rental place had his precious book and we were able to pick it up for him. Jonathan took pictures of it, so I can fill my own Book of Mormon with his notes. Those are not rain drops on my windshield.  It snowed. In the middle of May. I still am not okay with that. Some local graffiti in our apartment complex. In Utah, we sensor our language and use chalk so it can easily be washed away. (Even though it is still there.) The peonies were blooming and gorgeous!

School's Out Forever (or at least for now)

After taking a nice long break, I've decided it's time to get back into blogging! I went to see Jonathan present his Senior project. His professors and classmates all loved his version on the Weasley's clock from Harry Potter. When he finished his presentation and opened it up for questions, one of the first ones was when can they buy it. I was sneaky and took a few pictures of him. Two short weeks later, Jonathan officially graduated! On Saturday, we had a party with lots of family. After all of the festivities, Jonathan decided that for his first week of no homework to have a Harry Potter marathon. Each night when I got home from work, we watched a Harry Potter movie. It was fun, but also nerve-wracking because we were both convinced he should be doing homework instead of hanging out with me. Now that it's been almost two months, we are loving our evenings together! Spiritual Enlightenment: To the Boys and to the Men  - Jonathan ...
