First Year of Med School Done...Check!

Andy finally finished up with school on June 24, so on June 26 we headed up to Utah to start his last official summer off with a bang! We had 2 1/2 weeks packed with activities with family and friends! It was amazing! We went golfing with Mom on Monday at the Ridge and I felt like I was in the sand the whole time.

Bobbie and Bear had us over for dinner and games with the Willey's and Jesse & Day, which was way fun! We also went to the outlets in Park City to take advantage of Meek's employee discount, and we visited the Baja Cantina (so, so tasty)!

Then we went up with my fam to Bear Lake for an extended weekend over the 4th of July, and that was super fun! We drove up with my mom and dad on Wednesday night after the outlets and had a lot of fun playing tennis, frisbee, and card games, riding jet skis, playing at the beach and hanging out!


We also went to Moochie's three times (calories don't count when you're on vacation, right?) and Robintino's, SF Sourdough and the Pizza Factory. We tried hiking to Elephant Rock with Evan, but it's closed about 3/4 of the way up because of some pipes they're putting in.

We went with Grandpa B up to Lewiston to visit Grandma, and of course had lunch at Fredrico's and Aggie Ice Cream on the way up, and I worked on a quilt that my mom has been helping me with for longer than I would like to admit. We also went to a Real Salt Lake game with friends, and it was so much fun! We miss going to those games.


The Zos treated us to a Japanese candy night. If you want a life changing candy experience, give Jen buddy a call and find out where you can purchase corn pretzel sticks and melon hi chew. You'll never be the same again.
It was fun to have game nights again and to see family and friends. We really miss being in Utah, but we know it's worth it for Andy to pursue his goals. Thanks for all of the fun, everyone!
