My cousin Carrie Krainock has a recurring post on her Blog titled Wordless Wednesday. In this she posts a simple photo, no words. Inspired by her, I've decided to start my own Wordless Wednesdays. Here goes!

Summing up summer: Las Vegas
Brett and I made a pit-stop in Vegas while on our way to AZ with my Mom. We were heading to AZ for my niece Alena's birthday party and to help my Mom move back up to SLC.
On our a quick overnight in Vegas Brett and I planned an amazing date night. We dressed up fancy and went and saw Phantom of the Opera. We followed that up with a delicious buffet. It was so worth it. The Vegas production of Phantom of the Opera was incredible. If you haven't seen it yet I highly recommend taking a trip and seeing it. Even Brett loved the music, scenery, and special effects.
The next day we hit up Serendipity with my Mom. We couldn't get enough of that frozzzen hot chocolate!

Summing up summer: Norway and Sweden
I have been pretty bad about staying up to date on this blog but I am trying my best to catch up again. Bear with me :)
Sweden and Norway
Brett and I had the amazing opportunity to go to Sweden and Norway with Brett's parents June 18th -July 6th. It was my first time out of the country. I loved meeting all the new people, seeing the new sights, hearing a strange language, and learning about a completely different culture.
In Norway we visited the small town of Mo. Brett has relatives from there. It was a pretty scary drive (literally only 1 car fit on a road at at time and it was just winding around blind turns and into dark tunnel after tunnel), but this sight was worth the trip!
We went on a boat ride around Stockholm for almost 2 hours seeing beautiful architecture like this and learning all about he history of the city.
This was my favorite part of Stockholm, Gamla Stan, the older part of the city. It was such an amazing atmosphere.
This was a big field we passed on our way to catch our ferry to Norway. The colors are gorgeous.
Brett and me in Gamla Stan again. Aren't these little streets and buildings incredible?
We also competed in three track meets while we were there. They were so fun! The atmosphere was so intense and it was so strange listening to all officials speak in Swedish.
Brett and me at the Stockholm Olympic Stadium where they held the 1912 Olympics.
I matched my Seasons Best in the 100 at a meet that was completely JAM PACKED with fans. I couldn't believe how big track was over there!
We spent a lot of time visiting Brett's relatives and family friends. Everyone was so friendly and sweet. We loved our experience going there and hope we can go back again someday.
Fun little note:
The picture that we use with our Blog title was also from our Norway trip. It was taken at 11:45 pm! We were there in the summer so it was light from 3 am till Midnight everyday!
