rendevous in utah

so this weekend i met up with justin in salt lake city for a weekend rendevous and to catch up with all our loved ones who now reside there. we both flew in on friday and left straight for the hip-happening town of brigham city, where don and fran rollins now live. sheri and ben ward, staci rollins, and justin and i went out on don's boat at mantua (or as don likes to say "donaway", and pronounced "manaway". i dont know where they come up with these names!!). the moomba (Don's boat), was so much fun. we all took our turns wake boarding, getting thrown off the tubes (my back is killing me!), and laying out in the sun. while we were all out on the boat, staci had a snake crawl on her foot. i know, crazy. we ate dinner that night with don, fran, and grandma bev and stalked up on beef jerky before heading back down to provoland. saturday morning, we went to atch justins youngest brother garrett get second in his age group at the triathalon in jordanelle. it got us both so amped to do a race ourselves we have already begun training. for lunch we hit up Cafe Rio, the best mexican food in the world!!, and headed down to Provo lake to see if we could find brooke and ryan mattice on it. i know what your thinking, that lake is huge and what are the odds of finding someone on it without even having a boat of our own, but thats exactly what we did. as justin and i sat on the shore yelling at every boat that went by, finally one waved back. we finished off the day wakeboarding again with them and then hanging out with them back up at justins families place. our good friends spent the night and we hung out all day sunday. after we dropped off justin at the airport on sunday, i went to a stevens family (brookes family) dinner. it was overall one of the best weekends of the summer because of all the wonderful friends and family we were able to see.
