Spring Break

I decided to give myself a "Spring Break" and went to Utah to spend Brittany's Spring Break with my family. It was a fun and much needed break. For my first full day there, we went to the aquarium.

The new butterfly room at the Living Planet Aquarium was cool!

Here we are ready for a 3-D movie about penguins!
That night, we went to the open house of the Jordan River Temple. It was going to be rededicated after having some renovations done, so we had the chance to walk through and tour it.


On Wednesday, my mom, Brittany, and I headed to St. George! We went to the temple, saw The Greatest Showman, did some "hiking," and of course, did a ton of shopping! It was so much fun!

Before going to the movie, we got lunch at the Crepery. Brittany and I both got savory crepes and wish we would have gotten sweet ones. The hot chocolate was pretty good, but tasted and smelled like a chocolate chip cookie.

On Friday, we headed back home from St. George. We celebrated my birthday early, which was fun! I left late that night for a red-eye back to California.

I requested going to Sweet Tooth Fairy for my birthday treats.


I also gave my dad his birthday present! Some cute skull lights that I found at Bed Bath and Beyond and had to get for him!

Brittany got me the book and the mints I wanted!
A cute ring dish and a Pioneer Woman Cookbook!
My Grandparents came for dessert. It was so good to see them!
Plenty of leg space on the flight home!
