#111 See Jack Johnson in concert

Because of this talented man, I've become a huge fan of banana pancakes, I want to make my own frames, be a beach bum, learn to surf, build a tree house, and challenge my guitar skills. Kent and I went to this concert last summer with my brothers, his sister, my friend Ronda, and one of her friends--it was at an outdoor amphitheater and we had blankets that layed out on the cool grass...the concert was so gooood. We got to lay on our backs and watch the clouds change colors while Jack Johnson played some live tunes...as the sky got darker, we could smell the doobies...it reminded me of high school, when life was simple, carfree, and everything was new...and I like it.

#98 Learn to make sushi

Sushi is the best. YUM. Last summer I looked up some info, invited Ronda over, and we made some amazing sushi. We used salmon and cream cheese, it was kind of like a Philly roll but our salmon was smoked. Courtesy of my brother, Luke. Kent and I have been trying to better these sushi making skills...we crave it all the time but don't have the money for it. Darn money. Gets in the way of everything ;) here are some pics of my first attempt to make sushi...


#92 Tell someone the story of my life - sparing no details

That would be Kent :) He knows everything about me

#83 Sing a great song in front of a crowd

This one frightened me...but here it is! Crossed off. I was in Guatemala at the coolest restaurant ever. It's called the Rainbow Cafe and they serve nachos! They also have an open mic night once a week where anyone can get up and perform...I was talked into it. There were a ton of people there...travelers, locals...I sung the only songs I could remember while being away from home without my tabs...Bubbly by colbie caillet, a song Leah and I wrote, jimmy eat world and some other ones I can't remember...everyone kept cheering and commanding more, it was kind of them to attempt to alleviate my fear...and they did. I felt way comfortable in front of everyone and it was cool to hear my voice echo throughout the cafe...some of my friends have pics of my performance, i'll try to hunt them down. Here's a pic of the cafe...

#63 Learn to tie my own flies

I started fly-fishing in high school. I didn't go as often as I wanted to, but got more in to it once I moved to heber. I was a bike ride away from several awesome spots. Last year I met an elderly man that is a pro fly-tier! So I had a class with him every Tuesday evening. It's a beautiful art. I hope to get more into it. If you like fly-fishing, you should definitely try tying your own flies. If we live close, then I'll teach you!

#65 Go on a roadtrip with Jill

Miss Jill was mentioned earlier...Plan P...yes, the brilliant idea. After graduation we took a few day road trip to eastern idaho. We did a TON. We got lost a few times, went tubing and missed the last stop to get off, which resulted in us destroying our feet to get out of the river and back up the hill...haha, ate authentic Thai food, visited Arco, got tatoos...some of the funniest stories ever...Here are some pics of those happy times...
Jilly, we need another road trip soon :)

#40 Go to a foreign club

Probably one of the best girls night out ever--When Leah and I were in Guatemala, we met some girls that were volunteering with the same organization that we were, so we all met up in Antigua to go clubbing! It was fantastic.
