This last week I was bitten by Adventure and decided to go on a 3 day trip up to Provo to visit my sister. It was a blast!
I can never get enough of those snow covered mountains..
We had a waffle party to enjoy Corinne's NEW waffle maker!
Yuuuummm they were delicious!
My sister-in-law and niece accompanied us on our trip.. we stopped by The Chocolate in Orem. A cute house converted to a sweets store. Upstairs there were separate rooms with couches, wall hangings, tables and lights..a great atmosphere for a post date or relaxing with friends..
Kaylee hard at work coloring..
Madelyn lOVED the girls we stayed with. I think she gets a little bored with just me at home..
We adore them!
And Aunt Aly of course!
I felt like I was back in my college days with those awesome girls.
I'm not sure what I'm doing in this picture, but this is one of my favorite statues on campus right next to the Museum. I'd look at it every time I'd go into the building for class. It is of a small girl posed as if she were ready to dive into the little pool at her feet. Or maybe she is dancing? I'm not sure of her history.
We went through the Carl Bloch exhibit. SO SO good. Can't get enough of great art. He is one of my favorites.. maybe you recognize his work? This one is my absolute favorite:
I was able to catch up with some of my best friends and sisters which was so great for me! It was an awesome trip, Madelyn did so well in the car/sleeping in a new place and I proved to myself how adventurous I can be ha! Challenge yourself to do something out of your comfort zone this week..I think you'll be pleasantly surprised at the fun you have!
Hope your Monday is starting of well....Happy MLKJ day!
