A Quick Update

Here are a few pictures from my field trip to Moab a few weeks ago. It was quite a fun adventure, apart from almost freezing to death, and I was SO glad to be home when it was over.

Broken Arch--Arches National park
Goblin Valley

The next few pictures are from a hike John and I took one Saturday up Hyde Park Canyon. We found this little cave that we thought was pretty sweet, until we found some poop and tracks, and started to smell skunk...

This is me...running away from the stinky skunk hole!

Later that night we headed up Logan Canyon for tin foil dinners and Dutch Oven Peach Cobbler with Andy & Jess and Jeff & Ashlee. We had a blast eating and chillin around the fire :)

Our garden is looking good so far. We didn't end up having any pepper plants come up, mostly just because I don't think they were getting enough sun in our window. We went ahead and just bought some pepper plants and some tomatoes, and we're waiting until it's warmer to plant everything else. I have taken my mom's advice and I talk to them everyday and tell them to keep growing! My mom will tell you that talking to plants makes them grow better, and she can pretty much keep any plant alive so I figured I could trust her on that one.

We also had a mishap with our bathroom sink...It started draining really slow, so John tried fixing it, and it completely stopped draining. We had to call the maintenance crew, and when it was all said and done, they pulled a huge wad of black hair out...gross.
John and I are both looking forward to school being over. Finals are next week, and I am way ready for summer!
