dear diary. . .


I've been on a blogging hiatus lately. The Island has been so beautiful lately! Everything is looking brilliant green and I could just hug daylight savings time-- I love having the longer days.


Last week we went to Tucson, AZ for Brian's grandmother's funeral. It was a bittersweet occasion; it was nice to see everyone on that side of the family and reunite, but also sad to say "goodbye" to grandma Hays. It was a long (albeit beautiful) drive down and back but Matt and Sarah were great company.


Speaking of company, the day after we got back from AZ my friend Melody (from the mission) and her boyfriend came into town. It was great to see them! They stayed until Thursday and even got engaged while visiting. Friday Lindsey and her five BYU friends stayed with us for the half marathon. After the marathon (yesterday) we all went climbing- SO FUN!


Today Ben Cooper arrived to chill with us and climb with Brian tomorrow and Tuesday. They are going to complete a first ascent (hopefully) tomorrow here at Cany. Pretty sweet.


Anyway, I started my job. Its a soul-sucker, but what-ev. A girls gotta do what she has to do.


This post is like an email.

Why is your job a soul-sucker? I can't remember what you are doing, except I think you said you were at a desk. At least you have the long days and pretty outdoors to enlive you at the end of the day!
