Ward Campout & Sliding Rock

Last weekend was our ward campout. I was so excited to go, but it rained that day. However, we still slept over. We went up to Mutal Dell camp ground in AF canyon. Only kenzie and I stayed over, we moved the tables in the pavillion and set up our tent. It was perfect!
It was so comfy in our tent!!

It was also scary, because there are signs everywhere that says bear country!! Somebody also told me that a little boy was killed in that canyon by a bear a couple of years ago. I was scared, so I made sure to sleep in the middle!!

On Saturday we went on an adventure. We started out stopping at a persons backyard that had a lot of exotic birds. Then we went to a yard sale. Drove up and went to sliding rock. Sliding rock is a waterfall that you can slide down. I was really nervous to go, because it looked like it hurt a lot. Don't worry I faced my nervousness and went. It was really fun! Here are some pictures from that!! Kenzie and MeThe top of the waterfall. No this isn't sliding rock, it is just a little place that is above it. It was really pretty.

Here is who all went!!

The Girls!!

Me sliding down the rock. Yes I had to hold my nose and it was so so cold!!!

Girls Night!!

We always try to have girls night in our apartment, we usually go to dinner, but we decided to change it up. Two of my roommates do hair and went through hair school, so we decided to have a spa night. We put face masks on!!

I love getting face masks on, so it was perfect!

Here we are except Cassidy (who was taking the picture)...next girls night is back massages!! Can't wait!!!

Week 3!!

I really don't know what to post about tonight, but I have nothing to do so I guess I will.

• I love watching reality T.V. shows, I'm currently watching BBQ pitmasters. Some of my favorites are; Duggars, cake challenge...ok any shows on TLC!
• I cry in about any movie I watch! It usually has to be a new movie that I haven't seen or a movie that I haven't seen in a while. Sometimes, I want to watch a sad movie so I can cry, because it usually has a happy ending.
• I love watching movies; however, I don't like watching movies that I have already seen unless they are really good like the Jane Austen movies. My favorite Jane Austen movie is persuasion.
• I love reading. (not sure if I said this one yet) I love reading series, I recently read the series from the Book of Mormon, they are Ammon, Abish, Alma, and Alma the Younger. I loved loved reading these. I went back and read the chapters in the Book of Mormon about them and it helped me understand them a lot more. I also love the dress books. I could spend a lot of money on books, but I'm just glad that my mom and sisters love reading also so they can buy them.
• Man I can't really think of another thing! oh...I love love cheeseburgers, specially from the little ma and pa diners that are cooked fresh and hot with lettuce, onions and fry sauce...umm...thats making me hungary, I guess I better go eat a cookie!!

Puppies

My dog Gracie had puppies last week and I was able to come home and visit them. She had three, but one was sick and died.

The fat one that has more brown is Homer and the little one is lilly. They are so cute and look like little rats. My sister that I tend for is going to keep one, so that will satisfy my need for a puppy. I want one so bad, but I know it will be hard since I work and go to school. Plus I live at an apartment complex so there isn't anywhere for it to run around without being on a lease. . . Another reason to get a house!!

LAGOON!!!

My brother-in-law and sister invited Jerika and I to go to lagoon with them. It was way fun. We stood in line, rode rides and stood in lines again. After dinner we met up with the Reds and the first ride we went with them was Rattle Snake Rapids. I didn't want to get too wet, but Jerika and I were the ones who got soaked!!

This is the crew- minus pax who went on the rapids. Notice that jerika and I are soaked and the rest just got wet. Jerika and I, shivering cold.

Us Getting ready to ride the Carousel.

Jer and I ridinging the train. This was so fun and I haven't rode the train forever, but there were a lot of animals. However, it was very hot so most of them were sleeping!!

Finished

My sister's sister-in-law wanted purses made for her daughters. I think they turned out pretty cute. One is for a dance bag and the other is for a laptop bag.

Week 2!!

I need to take a break studying so I decided to hurry and do my week 2 of things about me. Ok so I haven't even started studying. Anyways WEEK 2:

• I love interior design, I think I have taken all the classes I can take in the 2 different colleges I have been too. Ok so thats only 4 classes, but I love it. I considered it for a career choice, but I figured I wouldn't enjoy it as much if I had to do somebody elses style.
• I love architecture, and the different details on buildings. This picture is when we went to salt lake, it is doors on a bank. I love old arcitecture, when they would put in so much detail into a building.
• I love driving around and looking at different houses. I've always wanted to go to the parade of homes, but still haven't.
• A little stalkerish secret, when peoples windows are open to like their front room, when I'm driving by I like to look in and see how they decorate...not creepy sort of way, but thats how much I love interior design.
• I want a house so so so so bad, so I can paint, put in tile, knock down walls, and decorate how I want without having to worry about fixing it when I move out. I really hope whoever I marry will let me do whatever I want to the house!

8-9-10 11:12

For 8-9-10 and at 11:12, we went up the canyon to squaw peak and look out over the valley. We celebrated by taking a picture!

Me, Kallie, Jerry, Kenzie

Exciting huh!

ZOMBIES!!

On Sunday we went up to Salt Lake for the Zombie Walk.. Sounds a little weird huh. Well it was! I was a little nervous to go, because they told us that the zombies chase you and you have to climb up trees. If you know me I don't like to climb things.

The zombie walk is just a bunch of people dress up like zombies and walk around Salt Lake. There are some crazy people, but it was really funny.

Some of the people we went with ran, but I just stayed put and laughed at all the weird people that were dress up, walked like, and groaned like zombies.

Some even climbed tees and the zombies tried to get to them. Some of the more dedicated zombies attacked people and "ate them."

It was quite entertaining, and who would have thought that Utah would have something like this!

A New Addition

I forgot to blog about my shoes I got the other day, and since my sister blogged about her new shoes I had to too. Our family discovered a new store, thanks to my sister Jamie that we go to a lot. ROSS!! We love Ross and I especially love their shoe selection. I have gotten a pair of high heels, 2 pair of boots, and these babies for only 12.99 might I add!!! I love it, however, somedays are not so good, but I still love it!

1 Month!!

I realized at work today that its only 1 MONTH till my BIRTHDAY!! I'm getting so old....23 in one month!! I just read my friends blog and she posted some stuff about her. So, I decided that every week till my birthday I will post 5 things about me. A long time ago my sisters and I made a list of 100 things about us. So I thought this would be interesting to see what has changed and what has stayed the same.

• I love love my family and even though I am an adult and only live 2 hours from my parents and 20 minutes from my sister I still get a little homesick. I always get homesick when I'm talking to my mom, sisters, or neices and nephews. That is why I will probably always live in Utah!
• I love love doing crafts. I could sit and do different crafts all day. Here is what I have done, quilting, sewing (I have been making purses and recently my roommate and I have made skirts. Which my mother would always say to us when we were buying clothes that she could make that, and after working at JoAnns I have realized that a lot of people make clothes and its not that hard). I have also scrapbooked, decorated, refinished, and a bunch of different stuff. I still want to learn how to reupholster, which my mother knows how to do so I will have to take lessons.
• I have to drink hot chocolate at least once a day. Durning the school year I only drink hot chocolate for breakfast every morning.
• I love cake decorating shows, and I want to take a cake decorating class so so bad! (i'm currently watching DC Cupcakes as I am typing this)
• I love reading, I especially love reading series. I could sit and read all day...ha ha well sometimes I do when I get really into the book.

Hopefully I'll remember to do this everyweek, since I'm not very good at blogging!

Love Them!!

Here are my favorite people in the world!! (well and my family also of course)
I love my nephews and nieces so much. They are so funny and they each have their different personalities that I love...I just had to blog about how much I love them, because I just got off the phone with Ofeina and she is so funny to talk to!!

A side note...school starts in less then a month and I'm getting very nervous because I'm going to be taking 18 credits!!! Pray for me and wish me luck..cause I'll need it!!
