seven week break.

S O U T H  C A R O L I N A
i enjoyed my 7 week break from school & am itching to head back to my second home.
being home for this past month has been so nice that i almost didn't want to leave!

i flew out of idaho falls a couple days earlier than everyone else. curtis took me to the airport, it was not a fun trip at all. it was so hard to say bye to him even though it was only 6 weeks! i flew across the country by myself for the first time ever. i wouldn't recommend it...

i got home and most of my family headed to the lake for the weekend. it was relaxing to be able to swim and lay around the lake house after a stressful semester.

then i started working double shifts for my parents' company for three weeks straight! it was so draining & i'm pretty sure i slept for two days after i was done.

the rest of my days at home were spent in my pool, enjoying authentic bbq, & hanging out with old friends.

my brother & his wife gave birth to my very first nephew at the beginning of august. i love him!

chan, carly, and i were able to make a trip to charleston for the day. it is one of my all time favorite places.

chan & i got free tickets to the amusement carowinds. we just went one morning for a couple hours and rode a bunch of rollercoasters.

C A L I F O R N I A
so right before we got to school a bunch of us hung out in southern california for the week. chan & i flew from south carolina to salt lake city with my sister n law jenn & the nieces and nephew. it was an interesting flight for sure...lets just say i have more respect for mothers after that trip.
anyways it was my first time ever visiting and i absolutely loved it. chan & i stayed with the holmes family (we love them) in corona, california. we all went to LA, newport beach, santa monica, huntington pier, everywhere. one of the first nights we were there curtis & i got to go into disneyland for free for a couple hours. it was so great to be walking around the downtown area while the fireworks went off. i never thought i would ever even go there, so my dreams literally came true. we got to go to our friend taylor's wedding in newport and go to a couple of wedding receptions. hanging out with all our friends & loading up on in n out was worth the trip. caliswag district was THE BEST.

U T A H
after california chan & i stayed in utah for a couple days to hang out with the family before heading back to rexburg.all the siblings went to the utah state fair the night we got there. the rest of the couple days we caught up with some friends and hung out with the baby nieces. i'm going to miss these provo trips when morgan & jenn move back to south carolina.
