A Few Random and Unrelated Thoughts...

I left my apartment this morning to run up to my parent's house and was pleasantly surprised to walk out and see SNOW falling! As much as I detest driving in the snow, I think it is absolutely beautiful. And since today's snow was minimal and didn't even stick to the ground, I was even more a fan of it! We're supposed to get more tonight and tomorrow, so that should be fun! I'm especially excited to bundle up and head to the football game!

On another completely unrelated note, Mare and I went up to see BodyWorlds on Thursday (Thanks for the tickets, Carrie!). It was amazing. I loved taking anatomy, and I love working in the medical field, so I appreciated the exhibit so much more. I am so amazed at how intricate and complex the body is, and how everything connects and works together to make us go. It was a great reminder to me to take care of myself and to take care of what I have been given. After seeing the exhibit, I don't know how anyone can deny the reality of a Heavenly Father and of the incredible event of the Creation. It's truly amazing.

I went to Cabela's for the first time yesterday... what an experience! You can roam that store for hours... and we did. It is huge! I will admit, however, that it was fun and I did have a good time. They have some pretty cool stuff there. It was funny to watch some of the people in there..... it was like little kids in a candy store. My friend's brother took off running when we got into the store and we didn't see him for a while. I suppose I react the same way when I go to a scrapbook store. You know... we've all seen them, and sometimes probably are them.... the women who go running like crazy through scrapbook warehouse sales or expo shows. Except these were men. And they had an entire two levels of outdoor equipment to explore and enjoy. Glad I was able to witness that at least once in my lifetime. Wooo!

Lastly, I went to Lagoon yesterday for the first time in 12 years! But that deserves a post of its own, so stay tuned for that!

Sorry to have written a novel of a post, but I just had a few random thoughts on my mind and thought I would post them. But now I suppose I should actually do something productive, like, oh, my homework and other somewhat bothersome and seemingly unnecessary things that occupy my time. Until next time...

Oh, snow. Ack!! I'm so not a fan. But I'm glad you liked it today!

As for Cabela's -- it's a huge place for sure. I'm with you -- not so outdoorsy -- but I'm fascinated with all the stuff they have. Especially the fudge!
