One Week Down














So here are some fun pics of Powell River. It is always very nice weather here and the people are all really nice. This is Powell Lake and it goes on for a long time.






This is our famous Rodmay Hotel! It is the oldest hotel in Powell River and everyone who hears we are staying here asks us if we have seen ghosts! haha It is funny because the always tell us not to worry because the ghost are really nice.





This is below our hotel, along with a pub. It is the only place to sit and wait for our bus. So I have become fond of the steps!













Ok, so we thought our gas price was bad? haha when I first saw that I had to take a second look. There prices are made up different and they buy gas by the liter. I just thought that looked funny! It is still over five dollars a gallon for them here though.









Here is their Church. About 20 years ago it used to be a old Baptist Church and then was renovated at that time to be a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
It is cute and small. There are about 35 members and half of them or more were converted by missionaries from St. George Utah! I was proud to be from there.


Crab any one? Later we went to the beach, it was windy, but a lot of fun and I found sea shells and I held a crab!!! It was a great accomplishment for me.
















Here are some of the girls we hang out with. 3 are from Australia, one is from Georgia, one is from Michigan, and another Canada! It is so cool to meet all these people from all over the world. Everyone is so talented and fun. We have fun with the Australians. They are so fun to talk to. I talk to them about my dad all the time, because he went on his mission to Australia. They laugh at all the stuff I know about Australia and all the songs my dad has taught me from there. We try to switch accents sometimes and they laugh at my "wannabee" Australian accent and I laugh at there "wannabee" southern Utah accents! They are a lot of fun!

The Adventure Begins...














So check out my plane! It fit probably about 15 people. It was awesome! It was way loud and bumpy- but it was awesome because i could see everything below. Canada is a very beautiful place!













Here is the wonderful airport of Powell River! hahaha I died when I saw it. And I thought st. George was small- haha isn't it cute!
I still have to show you guys my hotel- It was the first hotel ever built here. It even has a "pub" in the bottom! I will have more to show soon. I love you all!

Family Rocks!

This week was all about family! It was so much fun!

This week Chan had her bridal showers and she was definitely spoiled, she must be loved! Her wedding is this week. We are so excited for you!


It was mommy's birthday this week! We had a fun little party for her! She is now one year older and wiser! We love you mom!

Let the reunions begin! We had a lot of fun! We spent the day with one family. Travis wanted to be the goof! That's why we love him.


Got Thumbs? We played a game that no one could use their thumbs and had to do many tasks.

Me and Trav drove up to Cedar for the next family reunion. Of course the girls were the craziest there!
It was so fun to get away from our crazy lives and spend time them with our families! It is fun to be crazy and have fun with all those you love. Family rocks!
What a fun, great, awesome and memorable week!

Jess's Graduation

Wow I think we have been to enough graduations to last us a few years- It seems like that has been the theme of my blog. Don't worry this is the last, but I had to say congrats to my awesome sister in-law Jessica. She graduated from high school! Congrats Jess!

We are now finally cooling down for a bit before we really get into all of Chans wedding stuff. A crazy but extremely exciting summer we have in front of us! We are so ready to get the ball rolling!
