Beautiful World

If you missed out on the song back in the day entitled, "Beautiful World" by Coldplay, you should check it out.

Today, I drove down to Provo. The thoughts and feelings I associate with that place are really indescribable. I love the familiarity, the goodness, the familiar curves of the mountains. I love the memories that flow from late night WalMart trips, Krispy Kreme runs, and warm summer nights. I miss it. Here are a few pictures. Hopefully they capture the feelings I associate with that little town. To top it all off, I was able to go to Brother Smith's fireside and see some really great EFY and non-EFY friends. I'm a lucky girl :)
