What a Party! I'm so glad I work for APX!

Today was the big APX opening party and boy was it BIG!! APX sure knows how to throw an awesome party!! The DJ was awesome, the food was awesome, and there were so many fun activities to do. They had a basketball and dodge ball tournament and I played in the volleyball tournament- made it to the semifinals! Go Processing department! They also had tons of bounce houses and blow up toys! When we first got to the party, we got a shirt and a raffle ticket. They were giving out tons of hats and backpacks. I won a skateboard! It's pretty cool looking! I was standing in line to get the raffle tickets with Blake Savage (I sit next to him at work) and we told each other that if either of us won the helicopter ride we would take the other person (if you win you could take 2 other friends). Well Blake won and so he took me and his sister-in-law up for the ride. It was so much fun being in the helicopter! What a fun new way to see Provo and up Provo Canyon! Thanks Blake and THANK YOU APX for making this a day to remember! APX does it right!!

The 8th Wonder of the World! Or just of Seattle!

After my finals were over, I was so happy to get away from Provo for a week! I went up to Seattle to visit my parents who are there serving a mission for our church. I haven't seen them since I put them into the MTC the beginning of January. We did so much fun stuff together! We went to Snoqualmie Falls and to Pike's market (I think that's what it's called!). We saw the movie "Earth" which was awesome! We went to a restaurant and had awesome stake dinners! My favorite thing we did was go to the tulip festival! It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen! The tulips were so gorgeous! I've never seen so many different colors of flowers! Enjoy it for yourself! Though pictures won't do it justice!







In the middle of the week, I met up with Angelita and we drove down to Portland to Ryan and Angie's wedding! We had such a fun time down there- beautiful weather, beautiful temple, beautiful reception, beautiful bride and groom! This picture is of Angelita and I at the Portlant Temple waiting for Ryan and Angie to come out. Note to self: Get married in May!!
I stayed at Angelita's house one night and in the morning we went on a hike to the beach. This is what we saw! Happy "First Day of Boat Season!" Poor guys!
