Hello Again!

Edward and I are having a fantastic time together! Yesterday we celebrated my 19th birthday. It was quite an affair! We danced our hearts out and ate lots of sugary treats.

He really enjoyed the cake!

I've been taking him around so he could see the campus...

Above right: While we walked around, we ran into my RA (resident assistant) from last year, Alyssa. ...they totally hit it off obviously!

Today a bunch of friends and I went hiking and then for a swim at one of the many gorges in the area. We hiked about 2 miles uphill (in flip flops!) and found this lovely little waterfall. The water was sooo cold..like 55 degrees. It was so fun to swim under the falls and sit on the rocks and just enjoy nature. My friend Crystal packed us pb&j sandwhiches that we enjoyed under the shade of the trees. After hiking back to the parking lot..we found out there was a swimming area right at the entrance that we had missed! It was hilarious. It was a beautiful day and we had a fantastic time.

Happp Labor Day Weekend from Edward and I!
