GREAT NEWS!!

NO- I am NOT pregnant! Just to clear that up for all you crazie's out there.

Ok here is the good news, Brody and I have decided to go study abroad in China! We are going in June for 2 weeks. We will be going to Beijing to see the Great Wall, Tianamen square, Forbidden city and to see a Kung Fu show. Then we fly to Xian and go to the Foping Natural Reserve where we will stay for a couple of days. For all who don't know what this place is.. it's a giant panda reserve and a golden monkey habitat where we will be interacting with these animals-which I am a little nervous for because we all seem to forget these cute cuddly panda creatures ARE BEARS!
We then are going to see the Terracotta warriors, museums, and Han Emperor's tomb. THEN we fly to Changdu to transfer to another panda reserve. Then we go to Sanxingui/Shanghai and play there for a couple of days then back to SLC.
I have been trying to talk Brody into backpacking through Europe with me this summer and stay at hostiles and stuff but he is so set on taking summer classes. I thought I was Utah bound until our little break to New Jersey. So this was a SHOCK when he wanted to go.
We are also heading to California to visit Stef, John and the gang next week for spring break. We're so excited for our adventures coming!! And on top of that my mom bought us a sweet camcorder for our birthdays last month, we're eager to put it to good use.
