Well, its 8:07 Kentucky time...and I'm getting ready to jet off to Ken Ham's creation museum today (I'll take lots of pictures & represent SLC to the dinosaurs by wearing my sweatshirt! :D )
I just enjoyed a delicious Starbucks orange cranberry muffin and coffee (black---not so great---my dad didn't get me anything fuffooo this time...must've been a bad girl...haha! j/k!)
Anyway, yesterday afternoon we had a great time walking around the Ohio Falls Park--by the Ohio River on the Indiana side! I got to read Passion and Purity some more, relax, and soak up the sun which was fun!!!
Then we ate at Famous Dave's BBQ....uggggggggh....delicious but I seriously gained 5 lbs!
Then we came back....I FINISHED MY RESEARCH PAPER (hallelujah!!!!!!!!) and my parents and I sat in the spa before hopping into bed!!!!
Now I am off onto more adventures...so sorry this was so quick...but I'm sure I'll have some exciting pictures and updates for you tonight on the museum! :))
With love,
Mollie
