Sometimes I wish I had all the time in the world for hiking. It's so refreshing to just go out and hike. Get away from stress. Boys. Technology. School. A couple of us are going to hike Timpanogos during the night so we can make it to the top to see the sun rise. Well none of us had ever hiked Timp. before so we decided to preview the trail during the day so we would be somewhat familiar with the trail. This was one of the most beautiful hikes I have been on around here. I couldn't help but take thousands of pictures. Here are a few from the hike. I sometimes forget how close I am to all these wonderful hikes. I want to try to do a hike once a week before it gets too cold.

Labor day = fun with family!

Sadly my mom and dad took Megan and ALL her stuff up to Idaho to get all settled for school at 4:00 in the morning so they didn't get to participate. We missed them just the same. These pictures are out of order but I am too lazy to fix them. We hiked the Y, which I have never done before and have been wanting to do for a while. It's such a steep hike! I'm pretty sure that we never had any just straight ground to walk on. And hardly any shade. But I can now cross another thing off my list! After that everyone else went to a BYU women's soccer team which I heard they did very well in. I however went home to be a good college student and work on some homework.....did I get any of it done?

Nope.

After the game we all met at my grandpa's house for a little snow cone making. We got the huge blocks of ice and made tons of snow cones. I honestly think I had around 4. Before you think I am totally disgusting, 2 of those were just plain ice. I just love being here close to family. I love my HUGE Packard family and love that I do stuff with the cousins all the time. Well enjoy the pictures...even though they are out of order!
