Roadtrips are fun to do doo do dooooo do
What a week! I’ve been in 3 states this week and have had quite the adventures! So Tuesday evening, Marci and I took off in Thelma (my car) for Lake Powell. Lake Powell is a place very dear to my family. We’ve been going since before I can remember and make a point to go every year at least once. It’s been harder as the Gordon fam has grown up, but we finally worked out a week where each of us could go!
It got a little chaotic at times with so many people on one boat; I guess this happens with big families, but we still had a good time together! The water was still a little chilly, so we stuck to kayaking and hiking. Sadly, a huge storm blew in this weekend Aaand one of the engines decided to quit working so most of my fam is still out on the Lake til it all blows over! I just pray that the weather lightens up so they can get the houseboat back to the marina! We’ll see what happens here in a day or two..
Idaho. After driving back to Provo on Saturday, I got right back in the car and drove up to Burley, Idaho with Andrea, Mandy, and Landon. Our close friend, Morgan’s, mission farewell was going down. We had a wonderful time at the Stoker home and had a great last hurrah with Morgan. We all ended up staying up til 4 am joking and laughing like we did freshman year and lastly having our last “floor time” talking about our life wants and goals. I love how close we are and how much we truly care about each other. I’ve never had this close of a friend leave before and it’s really quite foreign for me. Morgan has been a best friend to me since freshman year of college, so I’ve come very used to having her around to talk to, be with, and count on. From the selfish side, I’m sad to not have her here with me at school, but I know the Lord needs her and that she will touch many lives just has she has mine. Good luck my babe and I WILL be writing you just as I promised!
We're going to miss you Momo!

Back in Provo
I got home from Jerusalem on the 23rd of April, was home for a few short days and drove up her to good, ol’ Provo for classes this spring. Things have been changing so fast and the pace hasn’t seemed to be slowing down, so I feel like I haven’t really had time to soak in all the change happening around me! It was sad to leave beautiful Jerusalem, but life is still happy :)
Life this summer:
• I’m living with a good friend from Jerusalem in a cute little, blue house
• I’m taking 3 classes and working writing lesson plans
• I am going to Lake Powell next week with the Fam Bam, can’t wait!
• I’m going to the Dominican Republic in June to teach tech classes
It’s a busy summer, but let the adventures keep on coming!
