Some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, or end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, taking the moment and making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next.

I Have Been Changed For Good

I spent a weekend in Idaho, or "Ida-tard", as Breanna calls it. It was so awesome! I went with 4 of my favorite people: Breanna, Lexi, Cortney and Eliza. We went on a mini road trip. Here's what we did (all photos were taken off Facebook. I have no camera):

First, we drove to Shoshone Falls and had a picnic.





Then we arrived in Boise and checked into our hotel and headed out to dinner at Papa Joe's. It. Was. So. Yummy. If you are ever in Boise, go there! It was amazing!


Then we went and saw the Broadway Touring Company of "Wicked". I've been waiting for this moment along with Eliza and Lexi for 7 YEARS. It was inspirational. We all bawled and had a group hug at intermission. Everyone thought we were way weird. During the song, "For Good", I looked around at my best friends and was overwhelmed with gratitude for the friends I've been given. I'm too blessed.


We went back to the hotel and watched "3 Amigos" and talked about how amazing the show was.

The next morning (after only 4 hours of sleep- we were a little grumpy at first), we went and did baptisms at the Boise, Idaho Temple.


Afterwards we stopped in Twin Falls and went shopping for a couple hours. Finally, we arrived home.


It was pretty much one of the greatest things of my life. It was so nice to spend time with these girls. We are all making a lot of changes in our lives, and we won't get to all see each other for a while. It was so great. I'm so glad we went.

i bawled my eyes out the first time i saw wicked. i got to see it in NY and most of the original cast was still in it (like idina was still elphaba!). it was, in a word, amazing.
