Utah Trip: Day 6...Final Entry

Well...it's all over. My 6 days of freedom, friendship and fun... I learned so much about myself (particularily how burnt out I was allowing myself to get...glad that's all fixed now!), and those around me. I really enjoyed building and strengthening old friendships and creating new ones.

I want to say thank you (for 6 things...one for every day of the trip) to...

Adam first off...For:
~ agreeing to the trip in the first place and being ok with me tagging along
~ being a fun travelling companion
~ bringing along Mad Libs
~ having awesome taste in music
~ doing so much of the driving...it was nice to have a break
and
~ being my friend...I'm sure it's not an easy thing, but I really appreciate you for who you are, and everything you have done for me this past year. I'm not sure you'll ever really know how much your friendship has meant to me, but just trust me that it's a lot!

Gretchen...For:
~ making the choice to go on a mission
~ being such a cool person

and
~ letting me be a part of your "maiden voyage" in your car

Ann...For:
~ staying up late to talk to me
~ making me feel so loved on my birthday

To everyone else that I have not mentioned...it's not that I'm not grateful to you...I'm just tired. A huge thanks to everyone who helped make this trip possible...and fun! I love you all and I will never forget all the wonderful times we've all had together :)
