Angel's Landing

This weekend was pretty much amazing.  But mostly I just mean that late Friday night and Saturday were amazing.  I live in a building with great people and have awesome friends.  We planned a trip to go hiking in Zion's National Park because it is National Park Week so you could get in for free.  We went to Angel's Landing.  Now I was pretty wary at first because my mom has always told me not to do it and people die there every year basically so it's just kinda a sketchy thing.  But I went anyways.  I prayed for safety for everyone and that we could enjoy the beautiful day.  It turned out great!  The hike was 5.4 miles round-trip.  It was just so great.  It was fun to be in the sun and exercising and enjoying the great weather and just hangin out with the people I love.

This was the whole crew!

This was most of us taking a break in the shade.

After we hiked we went back to Ade's condo in St. George.  Jill made us a delicious dinner of chicken roll-ups, salad, and corn.  We went swimming, too!

Kate, Hayden, Chanty, and me left after dinner to go caving with some other friends.  It was crazy.  For those of you who don't know, caving is where you hike down into a cave, wear dark clothes, break glow sticks all over you and the cave, and then play hide-and-seek!  It was a blast.  It was a one-of-a-kind adventure and I loved it.

The whole day left me super tired but very content.  I enjoyed every second of it.  I'm so glad for all the people I've met here in Cedar and for the friendships I've created.  I don't know what I would do without people like Kate (and T even though she wasn't here) and Kathryn and Parker.  They are amazing examples and truly genuine people.  I love them all.
