This last week was Spring Break and my cousin Kylie and I drove down to Beaver Dam to stay in my grandparents condo for a few days. (For those of you who don't know, Beaver Dam is in Arizona, about ten minutes away from Mesquite, which is in Nevada, and twenty minutes away from St. George, Utah. Welcome to the four corners!)
As we were driving down there we hit the biggest snow storm ever! We found out later that the highway we were on was closed shortly after we drove past it. Whew, I'm glad we made it and didn't get stranded in the middle of nowhere!
Fortunately after about an hour the sky looked like this...
This was a pretty chill trip. We just kind of hung out and played games. One night we went to the Casablanca casino and hotel to get Dessert. Here are some pictures of that night...
On one of the days we laid out in the grass on a blanket. We played games, read books, and just enjoyed the sunshine...
We also went on a lot of drives, got a little lost, and stopped by the side of the road to take pictures...
We also ate at a really yummy Mexican restaurant, did a little shopping, ordered Chinese take out, watched some tv, discovered a new hilarious game. It was just such a fun trip and oh so nice to finally be in some warm weather and lots of sunshine. My feet were happy in flip flops again!
On Saturday of that week I was able to go see the musical Hairspray with my roommate Emily. One of my good friends from high school, Aaron Ford, played Corny Collins and he did an amazing job! The whole cast was amazing! I loved it and it reminded me just how much I love musicals! Here is a picture of us from that night...
(Sorry. I don't know why that picture is so small)
A little family, having little adventures, and learning about life as it comes.

Sounds so relaxing.
I miss our dates of spontaneous road trips.
