Life lately, according to my crappy Verizon LG pictures:

Talks abrats a spring break to remember.

List and possible short description of
what I did this spring break:

+broke my camera, so I guess pictures can't prove my statements
+played croquette
+finally saw We Bought A Zoo (BEST MUSIC EVER. Love Jonsi, love Sigur Ros, love Bon Iver)
+bought a whole gallon of cherry icee from the gas station and drank all we could...
+rock climbing and repelling with my favorite cousins and Austin Lemon. um....SO fun
+hiking with my awesome sister and her kids
+mountain biking with Nena
+volleyball with Scott, Austin, and Caitlin.
+falling in love again with Of Monsters And Men
+read Black Boy
+watched it snow like 6 inches....
+went to City Creek and the Church History Museum
+and...... I had my first kiss. Which was pretty much the best part! haha. The next morning as my family was praying, my dad said we needed to pray hard for my salvation! I love my family. Also my two of my best friends got their first kisses! The day before and the day after me. I think we started something.... :)

Anyways, it was a great break spent in the mountains and with friends. I'll try to get the pictures off of my phone... but who knows. Thanks everybeedy for making this week awesome.


yes yes yes.
Ah.

moan bi lay mi-ham yay!

Labor Day! What a day.

We (Matt, Kris, Jack, and Cam) hiked to the top of Hogback Mountain. That mountain.

Yes, this one.

View from Skyline Drive. Amazing, right?

Jack found a fork along the way, and we put it on the very top of the mountain.

I think those clouds are awesome.

This is Kristin's tree. She is sassy pants... or was when she was younger :) When she was but a child she hiked all the way up to this tree, didn't want to go any further, so she sat beneath it and colored in coloring books while my dad and brother went to the top. Sassy! I love her.

Matt is sassy too. He just wanted to burp in this picture.

I love the mountains. I never want to leave Utah for that reason.

They are just too beautiful and familiar.

Yellowstone: Part II

I'll be honesty, many hats were harmed in the making of this cool place. Like this one. Never to be worn again.....

Grand Prismatic Springs. My FAVORITE attraction. It is like a big lake that is a spring, and the steam is continually coming off of it and rising your body heat by many degrees. It is hot! The colors are gorgeous, too.

This was a hot spring that lay in a caldera.
The hot springs ran down in little waterfalls into the river.


Okay, so we have this thing about "woof" shirts. Shirts with wolves on them are just so.... great. We got obsessed by how funny it is. This all resulted in Erin and I buying matching woof shirts. I can't even say how great it is.
Old Faithful.


Dragon's Mouth. It roars like a dragon, literally, not figuratively.
As you can tell by Kirst, it stunk like rotten eggs like no one's business.
I love them! (I say that in my head with the retarded Julian Smith voice)
Yellowstone falls really was magical. Magic floated around you. And lots of old people and Asians.




Thanks fam :)

Yellowstone: Part I

Or, in other words, the G-FACT: Grant Family Annual Camping Trip. Although we did stay in a big-luxurious-hot-tub-included-cabin. Everyone in the family went except for Tyler and Kaitlyn. We missed them a lot. But it sure was busy and loud and hectic. I LOVED it.

I thought Yellowstone would be a LOT of this:

But it certainly was NOT. I think I drove 10 hours while I was up there, plus the many hours my parents drove. It was a lot of driving.
Liberty the dormant cone.
Lots of hot springs!
Myself, being all excited about being sprayed by the hot spring.

It's so blue! That means it's like the hottest it can be. Blue means that.

It is comforting to know that a great National Park like Yellowstone was signed into law by one of our relatives.
We got G-FACT shirts, and we all had our number on our back, determined by who came into the family.
The trunk was a great place to store the babies while we ate.
Thanks Kadie and Linda!!!
All the single ladies! We ended up taking a lot of pictures together... probably because we are the single ladies.
