My Trip to Utah!!

My recent trip to Utah over Thanksgiving Break was everything I hoped for and more! Although it was packed with exciting and fun events, it started out with a scare at the airport! There was bad weather coming into Utah, and the pilots weren't sure if we would be able to make it all the way through. Since I was flying alone, you can imagine I was quite scared! The plane ride turned out to be the longest plane ride of my life! A constant headache and people who wouldn't seem to stop talking in the seat next to me, did not do much to make the plane ride comfortable! I made it from Nashville to St. Louis and almost missed my flight to Denver! After an hour and a half lay-over in Denver, the plane finally started its flight toward Utah. When I finally arrived to Utah you can imagine how relieved I was to finally be off the plane; I had been in the airport or on a plane from 2 P.M. to 11 P.M!! BUT It was all worth it the moment I saw Kristi running towards me in the airport!!! After waiting to get my bags, we finally made our way to Kristi's apartment where Kristi, her two roommates, and I had our first sleepover! We all piled our mattresses on the floor and laughed 'till nearly 3 in the morning! The next morning Kristi had me wake up at 7 for a hair appointment she had made...I was not pleased- haha. Needless to say, the trip was everything I hoped for and more! It was exactly what i needed after the stresses of school and dance! My trip was jam-packed with friends and family, some I wasn't even aware i had, 2 hour long bus rides, 15 BELOW ZERO weather, hours and hours of laughter, and embarassing moments at the creamery! Haha, I created memories I surely will never forget! The trip was made even more wonderful because I got to spend my 16th birthday with Kristi, who is my sister and best friend! It was surely a birthday I will never forget! I loved everything about Utah, and at some points, although very rare, I didn't even mind the blistering weather! :) I can't wait to go back, and I look forward to hopefully going there for college someday, in my distant but very near future! :)
