Memorable May!

My little sister is in Denver working as a travel nurse. I am so glad she is having a great experience but I also wish she was back here in Salt Lake with me.


Last weekend I got to go visit her. I was afraid I would not make it because I got sick the day before I was to leave. It was a Wednesday so I was needed at work. I struggled through that day. On Thursday I stayed home from work and stayed in bed all day. I got up at three and decided I was going to brave the trip. I flew to Phoenix first which turned out to be quite a treat. My parents met me at the airport and I got to hang out with them for two hours. I was not the most exciting person but I was very excited that I got to spend time with them. Next I got to fly to Denver with my older sister and little brother. That was a lot of fun and totally worth the longer flight. I had to laugh my brother has only flown once and that was before 9/11. We did not do a good job instructing him on security. Oops.


We had a lot of fun in Denver one day we visited the town of Golden. My brothers middle name is Golden so we had fun with that. I slept after that.

The next day we went to Elitch Gardens. It is a tiny little theme park in Denver. Though it is tiny the rides are awesome. It was a fun day we reminisced about our time at Paramounts Great America in San Jose. Fun times fun times.


Later that night we went to take pictures of the Denver skyline. It was so much fun. My brother took some awesome pictures. This was a fun one we took. We finally got my sister to stand still long enough to take it. From this parking garage we could here the U2 concert. Which only got me excited for...

The Salt Lake City U2 Concert!!


My friends talked me into getting U2 tickets almost 18 months ago when they were coming. The show was canceled but we held out and kept our tickets. Let me tell you I am so glad we did because the show was simply amazing!! I know who U2 is and I know some of their music but I was really surprised that I know all of their music. They put on a great show.

I LOVE Elitches! I grew up outside of Denver and we used to go there all the time. Here you are going to Elitches and I am over here going to Happy Hollow and the San Jose Children's Museum. Glad you had fun!
