Caribbean Cruise- AKA best time of my life!!!!

Swimming with the StingRays in Cayman Islands


Just hours after I walked across the stage at my UVU graduation I was on an airplane headed for Florida to go on a 5 day Western Caribbean Cruise with 3 of the most fun girls ever. With clear blue water, sun blazing down, no homework, and no worries we had a blast that you can not comprehend unless you were there or have been on one. Swimming with the Sting Rays and visiting Hell in the Cayman Islands was just the start of the adventure.......It continued with scaling Dunn River Falls and a Bobsled excursion in Jamaica. Needless to say, we were worn out everyday and the time relaxing couldn't have been any better. I can't wait to go on another one.

Graduation Day






So after 5 years of College education I finally graduate with my bachelors degree in School Health Education!!!!!! Seriously, having that under my belt is the best feeling in the world even though it means that I probably should start thinking about a Masters, but for the moment I am content. I know it won't last long.....so I'm enjoying it now.

Graduation was great and many of my family was there to celebrate my big achievement. I know I couldn't have done it without them and I thank Heavenly Father everyday for the amazing people that are in my life that have encouraged me to be what I am today. Special thanks to my parents for all their love, support, and prayers over the last 5 years. I am forever greatful for all that they do for me. Also thanks to my siblings and their spouses, Kyle & Pam, Jeana & Jon, and Becca & Brett and all of their kids for believing in me. Also a special shout out to both sets of grandparents. Garth and Harriett Hill for the love and financial support, and Dale and Ila Mae for their love and constant prayers on my behalf.

Thanks to all those who behind the scenes helped me through the long nights of homework, lesson plans, stress management, and long talks. You know who you are!!!! Love you all so very much
