Just a Little Thought of the Day :)

We all have bad days and you can make someone's day better just by doing a little service. Whether it be smiling at a stranger, holding the door open for someone, or surprising your family member/roommate by doing their dishes, you can make that person's day just a little bit better. I think it is important to realize that everyone is going through something hard in their life. We shouldn't beat each other down, rather we should be bringing each other up. So go ahead and make the effort to stretch those face muscle upwards into a smile, or wait those five seconds to hold the door for someone. It will for sure make their day a little better :)

Holi, International Night, and Easter!

This past weekend was the best! On Friday Nanette, Sierra, Sharlene, and I drive down to Utah to visit Mattie for the Easter weekend. Little did we know that it would turn out to be so freaking awesome!

We started Friday night with some International food from Africa, Japan, and Leatherby's Family Creamery for some ice cream. They were all so good!


On Saturday we colored eggs then went to Zupas(my new favorite place to eat) and the Holi Festival(aka the color festival) and then we finished it off with more international food from India, Himalayan Kitchen, Middle Eastern Crusine and Leatherby's Family Creamery ice cream. That's right, we went to Leatherby's twice in 24 hours. That's how good that place is.

Finally on Sunday was Easter! We woke up and went to church then saw the Great Salt Lake! After that we  went to Mattie's huge family Easter dinner. Then unfortunately had to head back to school. Awesome weekend, right?!?!
