Utah Trip Part 1: Hyrum

Had the greatest time in Utah this past summer! While my family drove for 3 days to Utah, I had the opportunity to fly from EFY into Salt Lake City! In Hyrum I got to see my grandma and grandpa Olsen, I got to see my aunt Connie, got to see some close friends and my parents, and I made some friends of my own! We got to go to the Logan Aquatic Center and swim, we hiked to see the wind caves, and I got to go and hang out with the youth in my grandma's ward where we went sliding down water slides and played volleyball. I met some great friends named Bailey, MacKayl, and other great people! I had a lot of fun! I also met a boy......I had a lot of courage to meet this boy haha let's just say I walked across the street right up to him and talked to him for about 2 and a half hours. Then later on I invited him over in person to my grandma's house where we had s'mores and I said goodbye to him and gave him a hug. He was really nice and adorable so it was AWESOME! His name was Mathew. It was so wonderful seeing family and meeting new friends. Hopefully I can go back soon!

Got front row on the plane so that way I can get to my next flight fast!

 My grandpa is INCREDIBLE! He turned his backyard full of old barns and sheds into a full out Western Ranch! He built a county store, a bunkhouse for the kids to sleep and play in, a bank a hotel, an outhouse, a jail, and so much more! I have to say my grandpa is incredible and I love him so much! Also at this ranch, we were able to eat in the little eating area, cook s'mores, and have a great time together!
