Silver Creek

I got home Thursday night, got one night's sleep in my own bed, and then we went camping with Loren and Ann's family. It was fun, but I'm glad to be back home again.

Happy Homemaker

For some odd reason I've been having the urge to cook a lot lately. Weird. So on Sunday I attempted some of Mama Hartley's glorious bread dough. The process was grueling since I didn't have a mixer and/or more than two feet of counter space. I started the dough at 9am and everything was finally done at 5pm. Seriously an ALL day activity. The result was amazing though. I made rolls and then a few cinnamon rolls and I think I might have done better than mom. I don't know, we will have to have a bread bake-off. Winner gets a tropical vacation? Yeah?



So in order to complete all of the rolls I had to come home from church after Sacrament meeting...and did I go back? Uhh...well Maria and I decided to go to the gardens on campus and take a few photos. It was fun to practice my photography. Here are a few of the good ones.




I have two days left of the semester! Woo hoo! I finished my last project yesterday and I have only one final which is tomorrow. I probably have one of the easiest finals week ever. I will be home in Nampa on Thursday night and I have seven weeks off before the fall semester. Can't wait to see everyone!

The Soundtrack of My Summer

Summer semester is coming to an end. How do I feel about it? I have no idea. My thoughts are as follows:

Excited to go home and spend time camping, rafting, and four-wheeling with family
Sad to be leaving Rexburg and my roommates
Excited for some of my classes like Stats and Communications to be over
Sad to be done with my fun classes like Canoeing
Excited to go back to work and get a tan
Sad to leave my free and crazy college life
Excited to eat for free for seven weeks
Sad to leave my college ward
Excited to spend time with my singles ward in Nampa
Sad to have to get new roommates in the Fall
Excited to do some training at the Rec for the triathlon and soccer

But these last two weeks are pretty much crazy with finals, projects, packing, cleaning, etc. So Once I get home I will post some pictures of my summer adventures.
