Don Don Don!!!! This Thanksgiving was a little different from any other that I have had before. As some of you know, I've been through volcano eruptions, hurricanes, and earthquakes. However, this time, My boyfriend Mark and I went to Utah for his best friends wedding. Bo and Sienna Mortenson(sp?) We left tuesday right after my spanish exam for the long haul to Payson, Utah. We stayed with his sister, June, until saturday when we drove home. I have to say that the most exciting thing of the trip was the snowboarding, and .....a blizzard. Yes we actually drove through a Blizzard! It was incredible! Instead of a 9.5hr trip, we took 11hrs. The storm blew right at us, and we didn't have snow chains, or 4-wheel drive. I'm surprised we didn't slide off the road, or hit anything during it. Lucky for us, we stuck with a white mini-van that was in front of us, and they saved us from having to pull off the side of the road to wait it out. But the trip included: endowment, sealing, family lunches, "party" (reception), visits to companions, snowboarding, temple lights, long trip home. We had such a good time, and arrived very tired. I enjoyed the entire trip, and came home not only tired, but completely sore! Snowboarding uses muscles, that really shouldn't exist. :) But here are some of the pictures, that I took while we were up there. Sorry I didn't take more...I never wanted to take my hands out of my gloves/pockets to take pictures. Loads of fun though!

You are very lucky that you didn't slide off the road or get into any accidents! :-O Glad it was you and not me! I hate driving in winter weather!
Mark is cute. Email me about this guy. I wish I had an excuse to see you way way way a lot. I miss. You.
I don't think luck had anything to do with it. But I'm terrified to drive in the snow so Mark did all the driving.
Callie, I miss talking with you too!
