"Laugh awkwardly and then I'll take the picture!"


You wouldn't know it from this picture, but we actually have friends.

What A Night. That's all there is to say.


I'm ridiculously tired. I feel like my body is shutting down. Or I'm going to vomit. 
One resident told me she didn't want me to leave to go to school. That makes two of us.
My best friend, Jennifer(shown above) is officially engaged. I am definitely excited for her.
I have a journal that is currently up to date for the summer. I'm so glad. 
The ride home was long because there is some race.. surrounding my house.
Well good night all. Time to sleep for two hours, then run if there's time.

I don't think about cold in terms of ice, or second chances happenin' twice.

Ate a grapefruit for breakfast today.
Got to see Lauren Kasteler today. Jealous? I thought so. 
Then I went to a SHeDaisy concert. It was grand. 
I do hope you had a lovely day.

"Have fun tomorrow!"

First things first. This past week was CRAZY. Second.. This post is going to be a bit long.


It started with Monday. I took some quick pictures of my cute sister and her friend, then went with my mom to drop off the kids at EFY, since we were in Provo she dropped me off at 7 Peaks to meet up with Holly and new friend Sam. 7 Peaks was a blast. It was a hot day, so being in the water was fun. Afterwards we went to Sam's house. He made food for us. It was Reeeal good. Holly then took me to my house and stayed a little bit. We had some of my cousins over for pizza. 



Tuesday my dad and I woke up at the crack of dawn and hopped in the car. We drove for roughly 12 hours. You see.. my dad is slightly insane. In a good way of course. He bought a boat which was in California, Northern area, so we went to pick it up. Duh. He also decided to try and sell one of our puppies on the way, why not? We ended up selling the puppy and picking up the boat. Then we went to a family friends house and went out to dinner with him.


Wednesday we woke up at 4:00AM and started the drive back home. We had to be back for a BBQ at grandpas. We made a stop for gas and breakfast, McDonalds. It was so good. Then I think we made another stop for gas. I can't really remember. It was such a quick trip! We rolled into Lehi around 4 I think. The food was great, so was the company. We have cousins from Georgia visiting for a month or so. I didn't really realize it was the 4th or July.


Thursday I slept in quite a bit to try and catch up from lack of sleep from the California trip. Grandma picked me up around 12:30 and took me to Costa Vida for lunch! We both Love Costa Vida. When I got home my mom and I decided to go to D.I. in Sandy after hearing about how they often have lots of books. We came home with.. maybe a little more than just books.. On our way home we stopped by Orange Leaf. As soon as I got home I helped Dallin clean the basement for friends to come over. Friends came over, ping pong was played, a movie was watched. And then.. mom called me from upstairs to say the dog had gotten out, I ran upstairs and we drove around for about a half hour until we saw her silhouette bolt across Canyon road into a field. Srsly?! Once we got back with the dog Sierra had a friend over. Naturally I joined them and chatted away while making chocolate chip banana bread (more like cake, but it was so good). Then I finally went to sleep.


Friday is kind of a blur to be honest. I do remember meeting up with my extended family on my moms side at In-N-Out. It was tasty. While we were there I got to see my cousins from San Diego! That was fun. Afterwards we headed to grandmas for Strawberry Shortcake. Dad and I left early so he could take the new boat to have someone double check everything (since we're going to Lake Powell), and so I could go to work. I worked a night shift, it didn't seem too long.


Saturday I got back from work at 7am and slept. I had planned to do something with Audra once I woke up. However, when I went upstairs my mom informed me of yet Another extended family dinner that night. OH my heavens. I know, that was the fourth one of the week. So I got ready and made sure I had all of my work things. Dinner was great. There's never a dull moment with us. Dad and I left early again, Ha ha! I went to work, it was a little slower that night.


Sunday I came home from work at 7am and slept. This time I slept later than I planned. When I woke up I talked with my family and idk. Didn't really do much. I took a shower and got ready for the day. Then I packed for Lake Powell. We're leaving right when I get home from work. And now here I am.. at work. My shift is a little more than half way over!!


I'm more than excited for this trip. Almost one full week without work? Yeah.. I'm down with that.. I guess it's time to email missionaries and organize my itunes. I've got a list of things to do tonight. :) Oh and Sierra is my best friend, I love her. 

If you got through this whole thing, good work. 

Get ready for pictures after this next week..
