Meet my twin

This is Rachel Bennett. This is why we are twins...
1. our names, obviously
2. We have the same scarf(not sure if you can tell in this picture, but it's true!)
3. We are the 2nd oldest
4. Our older sibling went to BYUJC as well
5. Our dads are both attorneys
6. Our grandpa's both have the same calling in the church
I'm sure there are more that we've discovered, but i can't remember at the moment so this will have to do for now!

You don't need 3-D glasses to watch a movie if you have different colored eyes

Exploring 

Mount of Olives

Church of the Holy Sepulchre

outside Damascus Gate

Tower of David

Western Wall

Dormition Abby




Crepes in West Jeru!

So Rachel, the girl on the left, has different colored eyes and we always tease her about it. One running joke
we have is that she doesn't need glasses to watch 3-D movies, and to our surprise we watched a 3-D movie on our
field trip to the City of David! When Rachel walked in and was about to grab her glasses i tell her she doesn't need any!

Hezekiah's tunnel!

Walking through the tunnel with our headlamps turned off was the best!



Hurray for pants that can turn into shorts!
(I felt like so a little boy scout for some reason)


Steps at Siloam pool 



P.S. Congrats to Brooke and Doug! I love you both and can't wait for your wedding!
