Salt Lake City was ok...not very exciting. But the trip to Cali was pretty interesting. We stopped in the middle of the highway, in the middle of nowhere to play frisby!! We arrived at a Camp Site in Nevada and had awesome grilled food (that took forever and burnt all of Blaise's hand-hair :D)...but it was worth it!!... read more

I decided to have an unorthodox spring break and I headed to Utah with my good friend Kiera for a few days of fun.

On our last day in Vegas we decided to visit a chapel and get married as weighing up the $120 cost of doing it there and then to the cost of doing it back home it seemed like a really good thing to do. So congratulations are needed for newly Mr and Mrs Stephenson who were married at 3.30pm on Thursday 10th November 2011 in Cupid's Wedding Chapel, Las Vegas, Navada. We both wore jeans and our waitnesses were a couple from Utah who had just won over $20,000 in a casino on one of the machines and decided to get married. Right, now that the ... read more
