TUCANOS

ay ay ay! i love this place! i won a gift certificate there at my work christmas party and i just want to say how much i love that restaurant. so good. If you ever want to win my heart... take me there.

TEMPLE SQUARE

When crystal was here

we went to temple square look at the lights. I love temple square. crystal had never been so we walked all over and then we even got a tour of the new conference center. I've been there once before for the conference, but the tour was so amazing. all the little things about the conference center and things that went into building it are really neat. if you ever get the chance take the tour. its really short and interesting. anywho i love the temple and i cant wait to go someday.

i've had an itch to travel lately.

i really want to go to europe and just be able to go see these cool places

The first picture is Italy. which i've heard is so gorgeous. I would love to go see rome and all the cool historical places there. the second picture is Paris. i would wa

nt to go to paris too but really i just want to go to France. I hear they have way yummy food, and all the fashion and cool historical places. i would love to go there. the third picture is jerusalem. I have a friend at byu jerusalem right now and she says it is AMAZING. so spiritual and so pretty. it would be SO neat to go see the places where Christ visited and loved. I def want to go there in my lifetime. and the last picture is hawaii. i just love the beach. i want to go anywhere with a beautiful beach.

also... i would just like to comment on how cute old people are. I love seeing cute old couples walking around or old ladies that are still best friends. i love it.
