So that I don't write a novel in one blog post we'll do some HIGHLIGHTS! Ready? :)
#1 The Piano Guys
Last Saturday I had the amazing opportunity to see The Piano Guys in concert. I went by myself cause no one else wanted to pay for the tickets, but honestly I'm kind of glad I did. Being there by myself allowed me to completely focus on the emotional roller coaster the show put me through. Haha I mean I know that sounds a little pathetic, but I have seriously never been so moved before by a concert. I laughed, I cried, and I felt the spirit. It was so entertaining and I absolutely loved Jon and Steven's banter back and forth, especially since Steven plays the cello, not a piano. Overall, I am so grateful for the chance to go and I love that I had such a wonderful experience. Definitely in the top 5 of awesome stuff this semester!
#2 Yellowstone Trip
On Monday I went to Yellowstone for the first time in my entire life. I've heard people talk about it my entire life, but I've never really been interested in going. Thankfully, for my comm class we had the privilege of going this last week, and let me just say it was absolutely beautiful! We left at 7 a.m. from the school and by the time we arrived in West Yellowstone around 8:30 it was clear to all of us it was going to be a winter wonderland kinda day. The snow had fallen the night before and left a white glistening glow. It was almost as if none of us really wanted to walk anywhere where the majestic picture perfect winter land would be devastated in any way.
The morning was a little rough since we didn't know whether we were going to be able to get into the park or not, but around 11:30 they finally informed us that the southeastern part of the park would be opened after all. We were excited to finally see what we had gone all the way up there for. It took time and various stops, but I became more enthralled and genuinely enchanted each step of the way. It was absolutely beautiful and I am so glad I was able to go.
