Yellowstone- Part I



Day 2 of Dallin's visit we went to Yellowstone! A couple of my friends were going up to Yellowstone to go camping and since neither myself nor Dallin has ever been up there, we decided to tag along. We had a ton of fun and got to see some of the most beautiful sites ever! We drove up there early in the morning so we could go check out some of the sweet sites and explore a little.
First we went and saw some geysers...






And we even saw 'Old Faithful'

This was before old faithful blew up...
And this is after


Then we stopped to enjoy the scenary


And saw some buffalo


Then we hiked down to this beautiful canyon to see some waterfalls


Told you...Beautiful!


The waterfalls...





And finally, me and my brother!

Stay tuned for more!

Ice Caves

So Dallin came to visit me this weekend! I was really excited to show him around Idaho and show him all the fun things to do here. The first day he was here was the last day I had classes, so he was a sport and came with me to my classes. Afterwards we walked around Rexburg for a little bit then me up with some of my friends to go to the ice caves. The ice caves are basically what they sound like. We had to climb down into a cave and crawl/slide through the ice until we got to the end. It was an adventure and we had alot of fun pushing eachother through.






These were the caves that we had to walk down to get to the ice.



They were out in the middle of no where

I would have taken pictures inside of the ice caves, but it was really dark and slippery inside so I didn't want to bring my camera, but I hope you get the idea!

Memorial Day Weekend

Yes I know, it has been a long time since I have updated. I realized that the last post I did was from one of the first weekends of this semester, which was back in April, so I will try to do better and update this a little more often. Here are some pictures from memorial day weekend. It was alot of fun. We had monday and tuesday off of school but somehow it felt way longer. We ended up doing alot and I wish I had more pictures, but I hope these will do.


First Brittany, Kristyne me and our two friends Andy and Travis all went up to Boise to hang out at Kristyne's house. We went up there Friday after we all got done with classes and just hung out Friday night. Then on Saturday we met up with some of Kristyne's friends and went out boating and did some tubing.




Then on Sunday morning we woke up and drove to Pocatello to go to Kristyne's grandparents homecoming. It was really nice and afterwards we went over to their house and hung out with all her family and ate tons of food.

On Sunday night we went up to Driggs to hang out at Travis's cabin. It is really beautiful there and it was alot of fun.




Monday afternoon we went up into the mountains for a hike. I thought I was going to die because it was a pretty intense hike and I was very sick, but I made it and it was totally worth it.




There was still snow up in the mountains, but the weather was still pretty nice.




Once we finally made it to the lake we sat and enjoyed nature. Some people jumped into the lake but it was freezing...


...so i just sat and watched

Great weekend!

Twin Falls

So a couple weeks ago Brittany and I decided to take a little trip to Twin Falls for our friend Grady's farewell. We went up on Saturday morning and spent the whole day hanging out, having fun, eating, visiting some cool sites, and enjoying the beauty of twin falls.

These were some really pretty waterfalls we went to...



We hiked all the way down. It was long but we were feeling super adventerous.


Here is the group we went with...




While we were there we had a constant flow of delicious food in front of us at all times. It was amazing.



Saying goodbye to Grady. He is going to Japan so we had him practice taking real Japanese pictures...

Spring Break in Cali

Over spring break me and my roommates decided to take a little road trip to California. I fist spent a few days in St. George and so on their way to Cali they picked me up before we met up with Brittany.


This was the beginning of our long, but very adventerous drive...







When we finally made it to california we drove to Brittany's mother's house and had a nice home-made dinner with her and her family. It was so delicious and we ate like we were starving college students.



The next day we went to Hunington beach...










That night we had a bonfire on the beach



We also went to Brittany's sister's house and stayed one night there. She made us dinner and afterwards we got to hold her brother-in-laws bearded dragon. Pretty cool...



The drive home was not as bad as we anticipated. Peggy and I just laughed the whole way, and took a few pictures.
