That was totally WICKED!

You know how this kid's mind is just totally blown away after the Incredibles use their powers to save jack-jack? So was my mind blown when we saw Wicked. 

We have been planning this trip for a year. It's so weird that it has come and gone so quickly. We left on 10th and didn't get back till the 18th. AWESOME!
We went down to Utah. Spent some time with family and a week ago (yes on sunday) we went to WICKED! It was so amazing! I would go and spend the money again in a heartbeat! 


The Stand of Souvenirs they sold. Wicked expensive. haha
We spent a few more days after in Utah. Time with Tycy, Stefan, Emery, and Shay. It was a blast! especially the Nickel Arcade. (someone needs to bring one to canada specifically Lloyd) Emery was so CUTE! There was this machine that was filled with rubber balls and he just kept looking into one trying to figure out how he could get one. Dan had already dropped a few coins into one but couldn't get anything with the claw. so i figured i'd give it a try. Go figure I actually get one out. Emery was so excited!! haha chewed and slobbered all over it to no end. ADORABLE!

trying to dance with some random stranger. haha


Of course we went to Temple Square. What's Utah without it? PS check that goal off my bucket list of going inside. Cha-CHING! :)

Then, after all the fun in Utah we headed to Montana. Echo Lake to be exact. I love that place. It was awesome cause we got to spend some time with family and I got to meet a few other members of Dan's family that I haven't met. We went boating and tubing and water skiing. ALL DAY! TWO WHOLE DAYS! that's my kind of vacation!

Dan's Uncle Mike

he kinda just stayed in the water most the time. :)

Daniel giving it a shot for his first time


Pretty skilled

AWESOME wipe out eh? he's completely parallel with the board. OUCH

And me. 

I spent my fair share of time in the water too

I'm pretty skilled. :P

or not.
ok. and just cause someone will spill the beans on it anyway. I got up out of the water and got going, doing pretty swell too. I kinda felt like i was going to biff it (even though those on the boat didn't see it) so i weighed my options. wipeing out HURTS! but if you just plug your nose and release you just sink in the water. So that's what i did in the above picture. :)

Here's more Pictures for ya.

Daniel, Aleena, Mike

kinda looks like Dan pushed Uncle Mike off

Ain't we cute?

Aleena being brave

Scared outta our pants
You may wonder how I felt the next morning.... lets just say I wasn't moving so well. :P

After all this fun at Echo it was so hard to leave and come back up home (especially when you know you have to speak on sunday)

We raced against time (Literally) to the Carway border with six minutes to spare. We're cool like that. Spent some time with my family in Magrath (at Jensen's Resivoir) before coming back to Lloyd.

We're sore and burnt but it was a vacation that was totally WICKED! :)



Wow. :)

  2. That WAS totally awesome! I'm impressed with your sick wakeboarding skills (yes that is the first time I have ever used the word 'sick')
