Youth Conference...

Thursday June 28... the first day of youth conference. Overall good day. We did baptisms for the dead at the Salt Lake Temple. It was very interesting. It felt so cool... words can't really describe it. I mean that we were in the orginal temple built by the pioneers. That was an astounding thought. I was feeling the spirit so much more for the baptisms then I ever have. The speaker before the ordinances told us some things that really got me thinking about the people that I doing the work for. He told us to try to picture what the people look like and what they are feeling as we were doing the ordinances. It was just so cool. I never really have done that either. Thinking about that totally brought a whole different spirit for me while I was there.
After the temple... we journeyed to some random church house. We were privilaged to have an EFY speaker. She was way cool and said a good message. After that we had a surprise activity of going to Boondocks... It was pretty fun...
Friday... They locked us up in the cars...eeeeeeekkkkkkkk. j/k and took us to Jordanelle resivouir. (deary... spelling terrible) It was pretty fun. I actually got sun burnt. It is not a pleasant feeling. I am still at this moment feeling the waves. They had this thing called a water rocket. It is like a banana with blue bouys on the side. Anyways we had like 5 of us on this not so big boat. On the boat we decided that it was boring to just go straight so the driver makes a pretty sharp turn. Of course we all go flying and we all crash in a clump. Something came down and smack me in the head. It hurt sooooo bad. I have a big old goose bump now on the side of my head. It does not feel pleasant. I think that I am going to be sore as well. I did a lot of tubing and my legs are still shaking. Now all the girls are at a big slumber party (which i was not able to stay over at due to the fact of lifeguarding stuff early in the morning) We had some wonderfull bonding times together. It was just so special to bond...awwwww
Overall I am going to admitt that this was not a bad youth conference at all. I have enjoyed every second of it so far. I will blog tomorrow to wrap it up.

Random Thoughts

I am coming foreward right now... I AM A SEMINARY NERD. But you know what? I don't care cause I work out. I think that the seminary teachers are a lot alike. They LOVE doughnuts and they are obessed with themselves...in a funny way though. For instance, the teachers that I know are obessed with being buff and how they don't want to show off the buffness. Some like to sing loud. They make fun of each other alot. Some are kind of weird but in a cool way. Just kidding. Seminary is great. If it weren't for the seminary atmosphere... I probably wouldn't make it through school.
Sweet Summertime! Wow summer is off to a uh a WONDERFUL start. I am really tired right now. My arms hurt and I smell like sun screen. Don't you just love that smell. I go and sit in the sun for 4-6 hours. I get a pretty nice tan. But its okay cause I work out. I think that our facility has gone mad. We are what like only 3 weeks into the summer and at work, we have had to call 911 three times already. ONE of which I was the main rescuer. I was scared to death. 'nough said there.
I believe that I have said this once before... I don't understand the female human mind. oh well...

YELLOWSTONE RECAP

So I went on a trip with the fam. We journeyed north to Yellowstone. I'd have to say an overall awesome trip. I have never been to Yellowstone so it was pretty darn cool. We saw a bunch of wildlife. We first got in the park and right there across a huge meadow was a herd of Buffalo. They rangers at the entrance were giving out warnings to stay in the cars if there is a buffalo. It was quite funny the buffalo or bison (which ever you call it) would walk right up along the highway. There was even a time we got stalled in the middle of the road because the herd of bison would journey up to the street and just stand in the middle of the road. But after like 20-30 minutes, a ranger finally came and got them out of the way. We took alot of pictures. Here are some of the buffalo. There were also babies. They were cute.

We also came across some elk... pics below...

OH COME ALL YE FAITHFUL....oh just kidding... Good Old Faithful.

Thursday morning of our trip we were driving at the higher terrain of Yellowstone. It was so pretty. Probably one of my favorite parts of the drive. But anyways, we come around this turn and there are tons of people standing on this hill with there huge cameras and park rangers every where. My dad was like..."OH LOOK AT THIS... It has to be a bear." And sure enough we look up the side of a mountain and clear on the top there was a Momma Grizzly and her cubs. It was so cool. Here is a picture...

Sorry this is long but I there was just alot to talk about. For dinner we went to this place called The Bar J Ranch. Its like 20-28$ a plate. This price gets you a really good dinner and a cool country concert. The band is called the Bar J Wranglers. The food was amazing... I got a rack of BBQ Ribs. SOOOOO GOOOOOD. There was also expensive steak, and chicken, and Beef. You got to choose. The band was cool. (Cousin Haley if you read this I'd have to say I was thinking of you during the concert) Here are some pics. I have some videos but they are being retarded so they will come on a later post. The first picture of the 4 guys were the main people that talked the most. The next one is of a guy in the band that didn't talk much but oh man could he play the guitars and banjo and stuff.

In closing... very great trip. If you have any questions concerning anything whatsoever... Contact Lauren. She is a Junior Park Ranger. Yes the real thing... she deal with the wildlife and can call any wildlife. Give her forest animal and she can call it. She was calling the buffalo, elk, bears, and it ALL WORKED!!!!!!!!!! And she wanted me to say she got a WYOMING hoodie. ( She is OBSESSED with Wyoming) ( I'd bet none of you knew that about Park Ranger Lauren) SO this is really long. I'M DONE>

Off To Yellowstone

Well, the family and myself are heading off to Yellowstone. This will be the first time that I have been there. I am quiet excited because I don't have to work for 4 days. YAHOO! I think that I will go swimming in something like this. It shouldn't be too hot. Or maybe I will ride one of these. (see below) Lauren and I will be filming. You will see videos on monday when we get back.
