Sister Weekend!

Well before I get started into the weekend, on Tuesday I went on a spontaneous Lagoon trip with Alex Jones and Fry! It was a blast! On Monday night, quite spur of the moment, we came up with the fabulous idea to hit the park for a day! Surprisingly enough all of our parents agreed to the day trip and let us go! I must admit I was quick shocked at how willing they were to let us go with no adults. Any who it was yet another awesome summer memory made! Now on to the weekend! While my parents were out of town I went to spend a few days with my best friend Mara! I can't even explain how much fun it was! I got a little sneak peak at college life with roomates and the lifestyle. Lets just say I can't wait! When I got there on Thursday night we started the trip off with a little visit to YoZone ( a scrumptous frozen yogurt place) and talked the night away. On Friday we went to a George Strait concert!!! It was absolutely amazing! It made almost melting away while waiting in line all worth it! Juliana Hough was the opening act and then Blake Shelton was the next act. They were really good but lets get real they just couldn't compare to George. I knew so many of his songs because his music was pretty much the sound track of my childhood. He is just simply amazing! Also, it was my first official concert! After the concert we were all hungery so we went to Denny's at like 1 AM and met 3 random boys from Cali who made us sit with them. It was fun but so weird, also if Denny's makes you sick in the morning you should try it in the middle of the night.... On Saturday while Mar worked I shopped and then we went to her apt and did glitter toes then went to dinner and visited the Gparents. On Sunday I got my first look at a Singles Ward... wow they really are like on the movie... It was such a splendid weekend! I love my sister sooo much she is the best!

Week of Liberty and Freedom!

Looking back on this past week I have realized a am quite a free person with quite a few liberties I over look! Starting on Monday the parentals let me drive down to the lake with Fry, Alex Jones, and Bean to soak up some Vitamin D. We lounged around on rafts (the ones that actually worked) and had a cute little picnic! It was quite fabulous! Later on in the week we had our A-merican or third of July party hosted by Lynae for which my parents let me ditch out on camping and come home. It was so fun, we had a BBQ (what is the fourth, or third in our case, without some hamburgers or hotdogs, chips, and potatoe salad?) followed by a few rounds of Mafia,(a new fav), and Fireworks provided by the boys. After the hit came to an end, I was home alone so of course we had a sleepover! How can you go wrong with orange julius, homemade chocolate chip cookies, and popcorn at 2 in the morn? We stayed up late talking about everything under the sun and just having a good ole time! In the morning I went back up the mountain to spend the fourth with the fam of course followed by fireworks that evening! I really am so blessed to live in such an amazing country with amazing friends and family where the sky is the limit on what I can accomplish! Freedom in many senses is amazing!

Picnicin it up!

I think only one of the rafts out there stayed blown up...oops!


Just waitin' for the boys so we can eat!
