New Aunt Karin!

My older sister, Jamie, just had my second nephew! I just had to get a little excited about it! I love babies so much. His name is Dallen Scott Taylor, and everything went smoothly with the delivery. I get to go up to Orem Utah from August 2nd-5th to help out with the baby, and spend some time with my sister and her family. Woo hoo!

In other exciting vacationing news...Barbara and I are going to Minnesota August 20th-25th! If you know me at all, you'll know that I LOVE taking vacations...so much that I sometimes take them without actually having the money to do so. Last summer I burnt all my money on tons of trips. I had an amazing summer, but a hard time making ends meet when I got back to school. So, I haven't taken any trips this summer, except down to the valley to see my family, so I was super excited when Barb invited me to Minnesota! I've never been, and I've wanted to go since the 4th grade, because I had a crush on my teacher and he was from Minnesota. Maybe we'll bump into him! :0) Anyway, super excited about finally getting to take some trips! As much as I love Flagstaff, especially in the summer, I'm in great need of some time away from here, and for some things to take my mind off my current situation.

The beginning of the blogging

Well, this is my first time doing this. It's probably going to be pretty boring, just to warn you, because I'm single and I don't have that much to say or do. Maybe I'll find something to put on here though, or at least I can look really hard for the good things in my life! I was just so jealous of everyone else and their blog spots...so I want one too! I'll write something slightly more interesting soon.
