My thoughts on Web 2.0

Web 2.0 is a win/lose situation. In companies more memos are sent out to employees when the same thing can be said by walking down the hall. It also puts everyone's personal information somewhere where hackers can get easy access. But on the contrary it allows people who live worlds away from each other to stay in contact with one another.

Day 7 (July 3)



Hello again! Today we visited the Magic Kingdom. We went on all the classic Disneyland rides. i.e. Pirates of the Carribean and the Tea Cups. It was insanely hot today, so knowing me, I think I got a little dehydrated and sick, so we left the park about 6 p.m. and went to dinner (Besides we have to wake up at four Florida time to catch our flight) Anyways, we had an all you can eat Lobster dinner. It was great! We all ate WAY too much food and are about to pop. :) Now mom and dad are asleep while Ben and I are playing on our computers. Hahaha. Well, good night all and I will see some of you tomorrow, or Sunday when I get to make the long journey to good ol' Cedar City. Happy 4th of July everyone!

Day 6 (July 2)




Today was a great day! This morning dad and I woke up before everyone else, so we walked to the lake on the other side of our hotel and saw an alligator. He was so cute. Then we walked over to Walgreens and bought some cereal and milk for breakfast. After we ate breakfast we headed off for a long three hour drive to the Everglades. It rained buckets on us for a few minutes then cleared up. When we got to the check-in post (For the boat ride) There was a huge rain cell headed right for us so we took an early lunch until the cell passed. It was so awesome! We watched the storm from under a tiki hut while we ate our lunch. It looked like a Monsoon from where we were. Then we went on our boat ride. It was so great! We saw an alligator before we even set out. Then while we were in our first deep water canal, an 8 foot alligator swam right up to the boat. And I got to touch its back! :) Then after the ride we watched a few demonstrations with the alligators. Then dad and Ben held one. And one even peed on ben. Haha. And on the ride back to Kissimmee, Ben and I had fun with our new pet turtle. Wahahaha. And now we just got back from swimming. Good night everyone. I know it is only 830 your time, it is 1030 my time. Peace out! ;)

Day 5 (July 1)



Hi Everyone, Today was full of fun. We went to Disney Hollywood. We went to many shows and on a bunch of rides. We went on Rockin' Roller Coaster, The Movie Ride, Indiana Jones Stunt Spactacular, Lights Motors Action, Star Tours, and Studio Backlot Tour. When we went on the Backlot Tour the computers of a scene shut down. We were stuck in a raining scene for abour twenty minutes while we were sitting on a rickety bridge. It was great! ;) Then for lunch we went to a Sci-Fi Cafe. We sat in old fashioned cars and watched 'B' rated movies and cartoons. It was an awesome atmosphere. :)

And I Met MATER!!!! (From cars) Now my life is complete. The happiest moment of my life! haha ;) Well, goodnight (For now) more great and fun adventures tomorrow. A tour of Southern Florida.

Day 4 (June 30)




Today we went to Epcot in Disney World. It was awesome! We went on Finding nemo, Spaceship earth, Mission Space, and test track. It rained most of the day but that was okay with us, most of the lines were under 30 minute wait. We had lunch in Norway. Then one we got back to the hotel we played miniature golf. We have a lake next to our hotel and it has crocodiles in it. They are so cute ;) Well, time to turn in so I can be ready for more fun tomorrow. Goodnight.

Day 3 (June 29)



Today we went to the Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World in Florida. We had some great times! We went on a Safari, Train Ride, Mt. Everest, Dinosaur, it's tough to be a bug, and Primeval whirl. My favorite was Mt. Everest. I is a fast roller coaster and half the time you are going backwards in the dark. It was great!
Then in the afternoon we drove to Honeymoon Island National Park and went to the beach. It was fun but my mom got her foot bitten by something. :( she is going to be okay though. This picture is with me and my new snorkle. And for dinner we stopped for dinner (Wendy's) on the way home. YUMMY!

Day 2 (June 28)

Ok, I am slacking. Sorry everyone. Basically we spent all day in an airport. We Landed for a few hours in Dallas and ate dinner there. But it gets exciting from here. The adventure actually begins! :)

Day 1 (June 27)

Good Evening everyone. I am sorry to say that there are no picures to go with this post. Let's start with last night....... Daddy took us kids out to dinner at Famous Daves. That was the first time I have ever been there and it was great! Then I went bowling with some great friends! We had a blast. Their little girl, Abbie, was so excited that she beat me the first game (oh, by the way she is 5)
This morning I made homemade cinnamon rolls for the boys (mom was on Trek with the youth of our Stake) We cleaned the house then dad and I took off to take care of my dads bees. It was awesome to spend the afternoon with my dad. :) After we got mom all cleaned up we ordered some pizza for dinner then I ran off with my friend Erin and her family to the West Fest. We shared a funnel cake and watched the fireworks. It was a great day all in all. I am excited for what tomorrow has to bring (And I will try to be more dilligent with the photos. :)

End of School BBQ with my gnarly roomies.






We decided to celebrate the end of the school year with an old fashion BBQ. We had all the great food! But we had a few problems getting the coal on fire to cook the dogs. So we now have two roommates that have gone Pyro trying to make this work. Amy and Rachel. Rachel has no hair left on her right arm. Good times. The BBQer was donated by Brenna's dad. Now that I have one year of school behind me, and passed all my classes, I have all summer to partay,...... hahaha, I wish. Sappy summer Vacation everyone!

Spring Break in Cedar City










On Friday the 13th of March we went Bowling at the Cedar Bowling alley. My camera was nice enough to die ten minutes after we arrives so I only have three pictures. Lame!,... I know. But we had a blast! My brother, Ben was down visiting for the weekend.
Then we decided, on Saturday, to go hiking in the narrows of St. George. It was gorgeous! It was about 70 degrees and the sun was shining. But we all got a little sunkissed.
After we went hiking we had In-N-Out Burger for dinner and headed back to the icy-cold cedar city. After we slept for about 3 hours we broke out the rockband and rocked it out all night. and thus brings me to today, tuesday March 16th. Nothing exciting to report yet,.... just a long drive home and a very annoying bloody nose in the middle of nowhere. No fun. but so far it has been an amazing. more updats to come,.....

wow! I thought I would have more time to do this blog. haha. isn't it funny how little time you have with work and college? well,.... this picture of me and my bro was taken on Thanksgiving after we were all faten up! That was pretty much the best Thanksgiving ever! We played games for a couple of hours with the whole family, before I had to head back to good old southern Utah, with four feet snow! hahaha. and the other picture, believe it or not, was taken the week before Thanksgiving. My uncle owns a sailboat and he knows how much I love to go out, so when he heard I was home for a few days he planned a trip, and it was absolutely gorgeous, and not too cold. :) and we had lunch out on the lake of subway sandwhiches. YUM!
