So I haven't posted in a while and decided it was time to update on some things. The main thing is that I had my b-day! I'm 21 now, which feels pretty weird, I feel like I should still be 19...but oh well :)
To start my birthday off Jon, Mindi and I got up bright and early to hike to star mountain to see the sunrise over Star Valley.
This is the first thing we saw when we stepped out of the house, the moon was gorgeous!
Yes, I live here, and it's pretty much the most beautiful place ever
21 years old! And Star Valley has been my main home for all of those years :)
What's a birthday without a water balloon fight!
Absolutely LOVE my nieces and nephews (Kian is still a little too young to participate in a water fight).
Mindi made me this adorable chocolate cake! It was so delicious and had this raspberry cream filling inside! hmm hmm good!
Sophia loves chocolate cake, obviously.
On Sunday my best friend since she moved to Afton in 5th grade gave her talk in church before she left for the MTC. We also have been in the same ward since she moved to Afton as well. She is going to be serving in the Spokane Washington, Spanish speaking mission! She is awesome and i'm so lucky to have her as my best friend.
This is how we feel about not seeing each other for 18 months...the longest we have ever gone without seeing each other is maybe 3 months.
Beautiful sunset from my backyard. I don't think a sunset in Hawaii...or even Tonga could compare to this one. I'm so glad I was able to grow up in such a beautiful valley.
I have now moved from small town Star Valley, to big Salt Lake City. I'm still trying to adjust but i'm excited to be here and start my new job. I know that I am going to have a blast living here and I look forward to see what the future will bring :)
Glad you had a good birthday, Alli! Good luck with your new job!
