Sara's Life

Hello everyone! So I just realized that I haven't contributed to this lovely little blog for quite some time, so I decided to give you all a little update! I'm getting ready to start school again and move in with Kaitlyn, Suz, and three other girls (one is mine and Suzy's friend from high school and two that Kaitlyn know). It will be amazing! To be honest, the thing I'm most excited for are the sports, but school should be good too...
A group of us hiked that wonderful mountain called Timpanogos this morning--that was quite glorious! That was a life goal of mine, now accomplished. We started hiking at like 1:00 in the morning and by the time we finished I went a lovely 30 hours without sleeping--probably not the best idea, but I managed to survive so it's all good.
I just had my last day at one of my jobs yesterday. The other one I'll be keeping during school. I'm still not quite sure how that's all gonna turn out, but I like working there, so it can't be too terrible.
Hmmm...I really don't know what else to tell you. I went to California a couple of weeks ago, that was amazing! Ken, Robert, Liz, Reid and I went on a little "older-sibling-road-trip" first and then met up with the rest of my family at our family reunion. It was one of the most amazing trips ever! It was sooo much fun. While there I accomplished another life goal. I went to a Major League Baseball game for the first time ever! It was incredible.
That's pretty much all I can think of! I'm still training for St. George again, but we have a while until it's time for that. Basically, life is good, Michael Phelps is my hero, I miss you all, and Olympians blow my mind. Love you!

My sweet office!! Before and after paint job.

Another update!

Hey kids! Just thought I'd write another update. So I moved out of student housing and into a new apartment a couple weeks ago!! It's a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom apt, and out the kitchen window is a little grassy area, a small basketball court and a playground! I've been the only one living in the apt for the past 2 weeks. One roommate, Tricia, has moved her stuff in but is out of town until Wednesday. The third roommate, if she decides to move in, is coming from Rexburg!! I FINALLY found a sweet "older" ward today...it's gonna be good! So I have a new favorite past time...it's called TUACAHN! Check out tuacahn.com! It's the coolest outdoor play thing ever. They are doing The Sound of Music, Les Mis, and Big River is starting on the 27th. So I went to the Sound of Music with the youth conference I did in June, then I went to Les Mis with my family when they came in July. A girl in my last ward is in it and gave our apt a few tickets, but then ran out. So, my old roommate, Cami and I decided we needed to figure out a way to go consistently without paying bank for tickets...so we started volunteering as ushers. We get in free and for every 4 times we volunteer, we get a free ticket! The cast is amazing (they have flown in some way famous people from NY) and they totally recognize us night after night. So if you guys wanna come visit, I'll get you in FREE! SO random little St. George fact, but I live about 5 min from where High School Musical 2 was filmed...I pass it every time I go to Tuacahn! Just wanted to say hi and that I love you all a lot! Hope you're enjoying the olympics!
