Spring Break

With our spoils....Enoch got more :(
Classic hiding spot
"Lets Dance"
Moab!




So since I'm doing my student teaching I get a spring break unlike BYU who thinks it doesn't exist. ;)
I had a short day on Wednesday and then I had Thursday and Friday off. It was pure inspiration. On Thursday I was able to go down to BYU to take a class from Brother Draper (my teacher from Jerusalem). That was so fun to go and see him in a normal classroom instead of at the JC pointing out the big windows. As I was driving back home to South Jordan I decided that I needed to get out to de-stress and prepare for my last week of student teaching. As I was driving home thinking of where I could go by myself, since everyone else already had plans. A miracle happened. Ryan Stubbs (a family friend) called my dad and offered to take Marie and me to Moab with him. Marie didn't want to go due to lacrosse parties but I jumped on that ball. We drove down Thursday night and just talked and caught up with each other. I haven't seen him since I was 16 or17 and so we had a lot to discuss.
Friday we went and did a couple trials as well as hung out on Potato Salad Hill. I can't believe how much I've missed going to Moab and jeeping altogether. I can't go another 5 years without going down there.
On Saturday we did Metal Masher, one of my favorite trails. It Moab hasn't changed at all since I was last there. It was the perfect amount of fun and adventure.
The Stubbs were great for housing me and feeding me and keeping me entertained. I was at their mercy but I knew I'd be well cared for they are like my second family.
On Sunday Marie and I went up to the Davidson Easter Egg Hunt and dinner and it was spectular like always.
I love how the eggs are always hidden in the same spots yet we always have a blast. Then after all the eggs have been found we steal them back from the little kids and hide them again. Its a vicious cycle that goes on for about an hour. The Davidson's know how to have a good time! It's never dull with them.
