Next month, Jake’s best friend is moving to Italy. Jake is bummed because they hang out a lot, and because his bud is a great guy. So I’m bummed too. When I found out he was moving, I suggested they do a fun man weekend trip. I feel like I get to do that stuff [...]
Provo, Utah.
My family is the best. My sister Kelly was the only one missing, due to the terrible tornado that happened in the south, she wasn’t able to get out of Georgia. We missed her so much and our hearts broke for her that she couldn’t be there with us. I felt so lucky that Erin [...]

Utah: Rocking out with my dad.
My parents are huge music lovers. I grew up listening to the best music ever, which makes me feel super lucky. Some people like terrible music, haha. Anyway, my dad wants to be Bob Dylan when he grows up, so he is often seen with a guitar in his hands and a harmonica strapped to [...]

Utah: Mountains and Blue skies (blob sale back open!)
Just across the street from my parents’ is a huge field at the base of the mountain. Homes are quickly being built there and soon this field will shrink until it’s gone, I bet. For me, Cedar City (well, Utah in general) is weird. I lived there for kind of a while, but it never [...]

Utah: My parents’ backyard (ps i’m home!)
I kind of thought I’d never get home. Altogether I had a delayed flight, 4 canceled flights and a total of 7 flight schedule changes. Traveling was just a nightmare! I am supposed to leave for Michigan on Tuesday, but we’re expecting another blizzard! Can you believe it? What is this place, the Himalayas? Anyway, [...]

Utah: More of the nameless Pup.
I refuse to write the word puppy in my phone, because I just barely got it used to allowing me to write “Pippy” without autocorrect changing it to “puppy”. It took about a year, so you can imagine I even get a little anxious typing the word on my laptop. Isn’t that weird? It was [...]

Utah: My dear Melanie.
The main reason for my trip to Utah, was to spend time with my brother Nathan and his wife Melanie. I briefly mentioned before that Melanie has cancer, and just started chemo two weeks ago. She has been through so much in the last few months since her diagnosis in October, and after leaving my [...]

Utah: my mom’s new puppy.
I came down to Southern Utah for the last leg of my trip yesterday. My mom met my brother half way in a town called Scipio for the hand off (me). She brought her new puppy who is still nameless, but adorable. I have been snuggling her nonstop. My mom and I talked about having [...]

Utah so far.
I have been having a blast with my family. I’ve been in Salt Lake City the whole time so far, but I’m planning on driving down to Southern Utah, where my parents live, in a few days. I’ve spent most of my time with Melanie and Nathan, but I did sneak off one night to [...]

I’m in Utah. Hooray.
I finally made it to Utah. It was a totally horrible day of travel, but after a taxi, the subway, the long island rail road, the air train and two airplanes, I’m here with my brother and Melanie. I was in a grouchy mood until I saw them, that’s how much I love them. Oh [...]
