My life has been fairly interesting and busy lately. Two weeks ago I went to Grand Lake on a family vacation. I loved getting to spend time with my family - two of my cousins even came. I went hiking and kayaking, played games and watched movies, and ate lots of food. I even made…

Grand Lake Part 4: The end
I promise, this is the last Grand Lake post! I know it's been two full weeks since I've been back but we did some fun stuff that I want to talk about! I didn't just go hiking while I was up there. I also spent time in the house we stayed at and in the…

Oh Rocky Mountains, how I adore you.
The past few days my parents and I have been hanging out in the Rocky Mountains. Left the day after I arrived in Denver. We're staying in a really nice hotel lodge that would be totally cool if it had wifi everywhere and not just the lounge. /pout We visited the town that my family…
