Mediterranean Cruise

Last week I went on a Mediterranean Cruise with my cousins. It was just us four girls and we had a blast!!! We started in Barcelona and spent a few days touring there first, then we got on our cruise ship and had ports in Napples, Italy; Rome, Italy; Florence, Italy; Villefranche, France; and Toulon, France. It was such a perfect time to go... The weather was great except for one day and we got to see everything we wanted to see!!! I love Europe so much :)

Laguna Beach with the Girls

Me and My girlfriends took a much needed vacation in Laguna Beach California!!! With everyone having jobs, families, homes, etc. its hard to find time to all get together. What a great way for us to all spend some time together and take a break from our lives back home. While on vacation... We went to the beach, got tumbled in the waves, went on a sea creature exploration, spent a lot of time in the hot tub, had amazing yummy food, did a little singing with a band, went to a surf competition (hello Kelly Slater!!!) drove around in our awesome mini van, took in the beautiful coast, visited PinkBerry!! and spent some much needed quality time together. I love my friends and Im so happy that we got a break together and all enjoyed it!!!!! This vacation was such a blast!!! I love you Jenna, Alicia, Kristi, Abbie and Adri!!!

Colter Bay

For the 24th of July this year we went to Colter Bay which is in Wyoming just past Jackson Hole... We stayed in a cute little cabin, went boating on Jackson Lake and took a boat across Jenny lake to hike up to a waterfall...(yes, there is a lake named after me) We ate yummy food and played "hot dice" which I won by throwing all ones the last and final round... beat that!!! ha ha... I was so excited I sucked my buttermint into my lungs and literally thought I was going to die... But I didn't and it made for a scary situation for me but a funny moment now... Jackson Lake it probably one of the prettiest places I have ever been... The water was crazy cold but I did suck it up and get in to surf... Thanks dad for the fun trip!!!

Lava Hot Springs

Lava Hot Springs was our stop on the way home from Colter Bay... This is one of my favorite places!!! Running the river is SUCH A BLAST!!!! I could do it all day long :) Since we had little Brinsley we had to take turns running the river while she waited patiently... but it was worth it!!!
