IT'S SUMMER!

This summer is going so well, and it's only just begun!

This week was probably one of the greatest in a long time and it went a little something like this:

• MONDAY
• No school because of Memorial Day
• Pirates of the Caribbean (the newest one) which is a very good movie and does not follow the plot line of the previous ones at all.
• Super studying for finals
• Slept in
• Went to bed at a fairly good time

• TUESDAY
• Out of school at 10:40
• Picked up my yearbook
• Completed my two hardest finals (and still have A's in both classes)
• Kifed a few starfish
• Finished at work several hours earlier than I normally would
• Studied (though not as thoroughly as Monday)

• WEDNESDAY
• The last day of any classes until my Junior year!
• Finished the last of all finals

• Went hiking/climbing/running/spidering/waddling/jumping through Ding & Dang Canyon!
• Stopped in Helper, Utah on our way home
• (The website that the hyperlink leads you to basically explains it... the 2nd to last section is called "It's Happening in Helper" and the town is known as "The Hub of Carbon County")
• Valeria was with us when we ate in Helper and she must've been the first Asian they have ever seen because people kept staring and asking where we were from. They didn't understand that we were all from Utah.

Can it even get any better than this?!

I vote not.

When I grow up and my blood sugar is low, I am going to call, "Husband, my blood sugar is low!" and he will whip out two juices from his tool belt and squirt them straight into my mouth. We will have a system!

... I love him!
