Rebel Angels

I just finished the second instalment of the Gemma Doyle Trilogy, "Rebel Angels". I was surprised that it was actually more exciting than the first book. There is a lot more suspense and intrigue. It is full of twists and turns to the plot and it always kept me guessing. The ghosts in this book are also more frequent and pretty frightening. Again I recommend this series to anyone wanting a good fast read. I really couldn't put it down till it was done!

Now it's on to the last of the Trilogy, "The Sweet Far Thing"

A Great and Terrible Beauty

I just finished the first book of the Gemma Doyle Trilogy called, "A Great and Terrible Beauty" by Libba Bray. I had so much fun reading this book. It's one of those that you just can't put down till it is completely done! I found it in the teen section at Barnes and Nobles, so lets just say it was a very easy read. This book has everything I like: it takes place in Victorian England, It is full of mystery, suspense, romance, beauty, gossip, and even some ghosts to get the blood pumping! I recommend it to anyone who wants to get swept away if a fanciful world for a few hours. I just started the second book on the Gemma Doyle Trilogy, "Rebel Angels". It seems to be very promising. I'll let you know how it is!

Broken Camera

So if you're wondering why I don't post very often, I have a very simple answer: My camera is broken. Yes my beautiful Nikon camera that Jake gave me for Christmas is broken. Every time I turn it on the screen says Lens Error and the lens will not open! Hopefully I can get this fixed asap. I've also been very busy/stressed at my work. So as soon as I get a minute and I have a camera that actually works I will start posting again.

At least my camera doesn't look this bad!

New Moon Exclusive Photo Scene! I'm not joking!!

Best Concert To Date!

Last night Abbey and I went to the Paramore/ No Doubt concert at the E Center. It was amazing! Paramore has been my new favorite band for a little over a year and No Doubt was my favorite band in Jr. High and High School.No Doubt has been apart for a while so it was so cool to see them back together again.

PARAMORE!!

The lead singer of Paramore (Hailey Williams) has an awesome voice live! She sounds just as good if not better then the CD.

If you need a good concert buddy then take Abbey with you. She was rocking out right along with me. Abbey and I were definitely the best fans in the whole concert! Thanks for coming Abbey!

Bachlorette Party

My friend Amber got Married today to Brad Harris but a few weeks a go we threw her a surprise Bachlorette Party. It was so fun, we blind folded Amber and then dropped her off at Grande America where we had a "Grande" night out. We played games, went swimming and watched movies. It was a perfect and much needed girls night!

Christine had decorated our Suite with Bachlorette confetti, banners, and balloons

Then came the presents!!!

Congratulations Amber we love you!!

Belated Post: Zions

Right around our Anniversary last month Jake and I went down to Zions National Park with my mom to go hiking. We decided to hike the Overlook trail. It was very strenuous but worth it all once we got to the top and saw this beautiful view!

If you look very closely you can see a road run along the river at the bottom of the canyon. That is where we started the hike! Let's just say that my calves and knees were burning after this hike.
