Beautiful!



I absolutely LOVE being outside. I guess it didn't hit me how much I enjoy the outdoors until I entered the real world and find myself working in a lifeless basement all day every day. Every Saturday I feel like all I want to do is be outside and play. This past Saturday morning I woke up to find that I had fallen asleep on the couch the night before. Anyone that knows me knows that that is not a rare occurance. The thing about it is, I have no idea when I fell asleep or who was here- Also not a rare occurance. Anyways- after I got myself woken up and out of morning mode, I had this overwhelming urge to go and hike Mount Timpanogos. I thought that I'd give Kaity a call and see if she'd want to go with me and lucky for me, she did. It was exactly what I needed. The trees are so gorgeous right now and the weather is perfect. It was a great hike. We didn't have time to hike all the way up to the summit but we went about 3/4 of the way. IT is just so refreshing to be out in nature and just listen to the leaves blow and be surrounded by beauty. IT is also nice to just get away from here and have some wide open space. I hate feeling like I am cramped into all of these little spaces all the time. It was also really nice to get the chance to be with Kaity and just catch up with her. I wish I could do that every Saturday. Maybe I will be selfish and make every Saturday "me" day where I get to just go and play outside. I doubt I could ever pull that off, but it sure would be nice! Plus after our glorious hike, we went and played some tennis- honestly, how much better can it get???? Overall, great weekend with great friends all around. I got to watch a wonderful movie, hike, play tennis, go to church, do a little party- life is just great!
