The Fray/Jack's Mannequin Concert

I was stoked when I saw that the Fray was going to be coming to Utah, but I wasn't sure if I was going to go. I decided that I should go and see them, I am really happy that I did because it was the best concert that I have been to. We may have gotten lost trying to get to the USANA Amphitheater but it was all just so much fun. A small band started the concert and they were pretty good but I was even more exctied for the last two bands. The lead singer of the Jack's Mannequin was so good at the piano and it was just amazing to see him play the piano and sing like he did. The Fray were just amazing, I can't really describe how good they were. I'll admit that I didn't want to sit down because I may have fallen asleep but I just love their music. The highlight of the night had to be when I thought the concert was done, then they came back out and did a cover of "Heartless" by Kanye West. It was sweet to see a short little bald white guy singing a song like that. I hope that they come to town again, so that I can have fun listening to one of my favorite bands.

Malan's Peak

I have been talking about hiking to Malan's Peak for the longest time but I finally got to doing it this weekend on a date! It was so much fun, even though it was a lot harder than I had expected. We came back down through Waterfall Canyon which is always a beautiful site but its alot more fun when your with a pretty lady. We had a little picnic which was fun because I actually made the cookies, which turned out to be half-decent. I took, Heather, she is such a fun and cute girl with alot of energy. We had so much fun taking pictures and finding little caves to play in and try not to get hurt. I hit my knee on a rock after jumping off a bigger rock but I am ok now but it was pretty scary when I fell. I almost hit Heather with my Nalgene bottle after I did a little rock climbing but luckily it missed her or I would be in deep trouble haha. Overall, it was an amazing date and just so much fun to get out and do some pretty sweet hiking.

July 4th and Summer!

Just thought I would update on what has been going on during the summer. Life has been pretty good, just working and running mostly. Since the Grand Canyon trip, I have yet to do much with my life but I am planning on climbing up to Malan Peak in a week or two. I am finally registered with classes in Weber State and I'm getting really excited. The new scenery should be alot of fun, I'm ready to party it up with some new people. Also, my friends will be coming home from their missions so that is something that is good. People think that I came back home because of them but they really didn't factor into my decision.
Running has been alright, actually I took second in the 1st annual Morgan Valley 5k. I thought that I had a chance to win it but I falter near the end but it was a good experience. I know that I can train more and am hoping to run another 5k this summer and try to lower my summer 5k pr but I guess we will see.
