I want to fly away

{subject line artist: Lenny Kravitz song: fly away}

Some of you may know - and some of you may not know - but Scott has been going to school to become a commercial pilot. At the beginning of this month he got his Private Pilot License which means he can now take up passengers. So this past Sunday we flew up to Logan to see my brother and his family. It was my first time up with him!
Admittedly I had a bit of anxiety at first. I completely trusted him - I wasn't in fear for my life - I knew we wouldn't crash - and yet this irrational fear swept over me for a couple of minutes. I recovered and other than a few tense moments {after all, it's weird to fly over a mountain at 9,000 feet instead of 35,000 feet in a big plane}, I really enjoyed it. The view was spectacular, I learned about the inner-workings of a plane, and I learned which neighborhood would be best for trick-or-treating {those huge-house neighborhoods give full candybars, right??}.

Here's a short video of our takeoff......










and here's a pic of Sardine Canyon....





















and last but not least, the mountains East of Ogden.....

I'm so excited! And I just can't hide it!

WOOHOO!! I got an A in my Finance class! I was certain it was going to be A- or B+ but alas...... I've maintained my 4.0 GPA!

Let's Get Physical!

So I did something I never thought I would do. I joined Curves! Well...I didn't exactly join as much as I signed up for their 30 day research study. For $30 I get to try the workout for 30 days. I'm required to work out at least three times a week...which is good because sometimes I have to feel obligated to workout otherwise I won't....and then they get to use my results in their study. I'm sure it's so their ads can say, "if you work out for only 30-minutes a day, 3 times a week, studies show you'll lose X amount of weight and X number of inches".

I worked out yesterday and it did make me sweat a bit. I'll keep ya posted as to whether or not I lost weight, inches, or both {fingers crossed}
