Life.......From a different point of view.

Do you ever have those moments where you stop and think hmm....wonder what the world looks like from a different point of view? That's exactly what I did on my fun Canyoneering adventure with the girls a few weeks ago. I went with Kristi, Amber, Suzanne and our oldest friend Nicki (haha). We spent the weekend in St. George and in Zion's National Park. We canyoneered through Pine Creek and spent the rest of the time relaxing, eating, watching the Olympics and Laughing. It was a much needed vacation! We may have had to swim through some mucky water and get sand lodged places that sand should never be, but most of all it was so much fun and really good to reconnect with each other. There was never a dull moment in conversation and we got to experience Suzanne's first Chinease fire drill! We hid fake bugs in Amber's bed, had a heated debate over dinner one night, teased hard, took pictures with giant wire animals in someone's front yard, talked and laughed, sang.....belted out songs on the way home and came home with one more adventure under our belts and lasting memories. I can't wait for our next adventure.....I will give you a hint.....there will be donkey's involved!!!


Amber and I wondered what the world looked like upside down

All of us Girls after we finished the last repel



This is me on the last repel. It was 100ft and so much fun

We had to hang onto a tree to get down. It was cold and very stinky as you got closer to the water


This is what we had to swim through when we got to the Cathedral. If you could have seen the look on everyone's faces......

We must have been having an interesting conversation!

This is us walking up to the final repel. It got really windy.

Sounds like you had so much fun! Girl trips are the best and that repel looked so FUN as I haven't been forever (but not so much the water part). I'm glad you updated your blog because they're always so fun to read!

It's about time you updated this thing! I was beginning to wonder just how boring your life was! Well, with that trip, you are redeemed, EXCEPT for the fact that Niki is NOT your oldest friend---so watch your mouth, girl!!!
