"You have a face on your window..."

So we got a new printer in my house that hooks up to the big computer and it seems to hate my camera so I have been unable to update anything! And I have had pictures from FOREVER ago! so I am going to go from the most recent to the end. :) and some things aren't even here. haha these are just some of the things.

Wake boarding

This is my new love! I have been hanging out with this new group of guys and they have a boat and are also actual wake boarding teachers. So I've basically gotten free lessons every time we go! hehe it rocks! I have also gotten really good at it. I'm learning how to jump the wake now, so I'll have pictures of that when it happens.... haha most likely it wont be till next summer because of my crazy schedule which i will get to on my next post.

This is the first time I actually got up, so I'm better now!

Yay for tubes also!

AND I HAVE THE BEST FRIENDS EVER!

Cali Road Trip Before School

Tori, Darlene, Erica, and myself jumped in my amazing little red car and drove to california to go to the beach and to Sea World since Darlene had never been before and we needed one last HOOYAH before becoming slaves to school. We had the greatest time ever!

We bought white board markers and wrote messages, drew our boyfriends, and other exciting things all over the windows to see peoples reactions. And at first we didn't get any response but as we got more into the city it was exciting to see peoples faces as we drove by... haha. I think my favorite had to have been when we were driving onto base (because we were staying with my cousin Andrea) and the marine at the gate looked at me and started laughing and said "umm... you have a face on your window." and then I blushed and said "ya... haha We know" I don't even think he looked at my ID he just smiled at me and let me go :) oh the Joys of having 4 attractive girls in the car driving onto a Marine base haha loads of fun flirting with them! :)

Sea World

I didn't take very many pictures with my camera, Darlene and Tori had most of the pictures and I haven't gotten copies of them yet.

After Sea World closed there was a HUGE line of cars to get out of the parking lot.. so what did we do??? Put on Hip hop/ Gangsta music and got our dance on in the parking lot of course!! Best experience ever! hahaha talk about hilarious reactions on old peoples faces. I can just see what they are saying. haha

Beach

Of course we don't take pretty pictures on the beach, only jumping/ugly ones!

aren't we so cute?

Britton's getting Bigger!

I went with Dawn a really long time ago, when Britton was just starting to walk, to a baby store and he didn't want to be put in the cart, he wanted to walk everywhere so the amazing store had these super cool Mini Carts! and he LOVED IT! I said "Britton say Cheese" and he looked at me willingly and gave me the biggest smile! So cute!

Friends FHE Night

Carrie and John Snyder decided to have a friends FHE night. So a bunch of old friends got together and had a lesson, game, and and ate some dessert! It was so much fun to see all my old friends that are all away to school! I miss them and it was so much fun to catch up!

Publish Post

I think thats all for now. I'm so happy that I was able to update! It has been WAY too long! :)

Stick 'em in a blender and push puree

Why hello fellow bloggers. I need a little advice.... I haven't been the most personal person on this little blog of mine it's been more like a simple journal so i can remember what has been goin on in my exciting life... But I'm kinda stuck at the moment and i know there are people that read this that have great advice, even if I don't know who you are, I would like to know what you think because i'm new to this.

The "this" I am referring to is "dating".

I'll give you a little background.

-I dated a guy for two years before he left on his mission... he was my first boyfriend, first kiss, the first guy i said "I love you" to, the first person i would go to with a problem, I was myself around him, and life was great. I didn't think about other guys, I didn't go out on dates (one i guess because i was dating someone, two because guys just don't ask anymore), Well then he left... Kinda on a bad note and it made me realize that he isn't exactly what i want in my future spouse.

My eyes were then opened up to the world of men!!

WHAT THE?!?! SERIOUSLY?!!? How the HECK do people find someone to date let alone someone to marry?!

---you have the creepers, the Jocks, the nerds, The beautiful ones (who I get still nervous talking to haha like i'm in high school again), the brainiacs, the rude/vulgar ones, the old awkward men that talk to anyone and everyone trying to get numbers, the fresh of the Mish, the depressed RM's that think life sucks, the completely confused, and the list goes on and on and ON! and sometimes if you are lucky or not you find some one that fits into more than one category!

Well, by the hand of fate you MIGHT find one of these "men" that you are actually interested in... but then comes the make it or break it situation........ Are they interested in you?!

hhhhmmmm...... how do you know? And how do you give hints that you like them without being completely ridiculous or weird?

I have had the wonderful opportunity to meet a lot of new fun guys these last couple of months. I have decided to go to the singles ward, I go to the firesides, I actually go up and talk to new people, I have been hanging out with a new group each weekend; however, nothing has really come out of this.... guys just don't ask for your number... am I aloud to? hahaha because I would totally grow a pair and walk up to a guy and talk to him and ask him for his number, even if it was just to hang out again, but that could seem super over powering and therefore turn the guy off to any interest right there on the spot... see my dilemma? SO... i'm stuck between a rock and a hard spot on this whole "meeting knew guys" and "dating". Because if it was up to me I would not be sitting at home on the weekend. I would be getting together with random people! Why not? What do we have to lose, seriously?!

----------------------------

My next item to talk about........ How do you KINDLY let guys know that you are not interested? And i don't mean interested in hanging out with them, I mean interested in dating them. I will always say yes to the first date! But then after that I always feel horrible saying no. But in high school it was SOOO different. You could go on as many dates with someone as you wanted and it didn't really mean anything. But now that i'm at the age of dating=marriage it's TOTALLY different....

----------------------------

Ok so i know there are like 2 1/2 people that read my blog but i would really like to know what everyone thinks even if it is someone who i don't know.

So leave comments!! :)

Breaking and Entering!

So yesterday Darlene &&and I were going to the lake with Heather but it didn't work out and we made plans for next week. Since we didn't have work for another few hours, we kindly thought of our boy-friends and their immense need of cleaning supplies for their bathroom. We hit up the store and put together a bucket of supplies. After putting it together, we went to their place, only to find no one home. We checked the door-It was opened. So we freaked out kindly shut the door and knocked.... 5 times. When no one finally answered we stopped laughing and made sure we were not going to wet ourselves, took a deep breath and walked inside. yes, breaking and entering! (but for a good cause!) . We were so afraid that someone was going to pull up or be in the house so we raided the house and found paper to write on. We left them a note that read something along the lines of:

"Dear boys, we hear you are in great need of cleaning supplies for your bathroom. Well it's your lucky day! we have provided you with the material necessary to get started. So get to work! sincerely, your secret admirers...[ya we go to collage!]"

the collage part was an inside joke. anyways, we placed the things on the table and took off running to Darlene's car. Once inside, she was brilliant and decided to take an after picture. The second she put the camera down, THERE WAS A CAR IN THE DRIVE WAY! where the crap did they come from?! We screamed and TOOK OFF STAT!!!

A little while later, Cameron Brown texts us to say Cole was grateful for our gift. We asked "how did he know it was us?"...and he said they saw her car. SO MUCH FOR BEING SNEAKY DEAKY! haha!! It was a rockin' day though...after our adventure, we stuffed our faces at taco bell went to work & later that night played with Tori (poor sista has been sick ) and angie & heather. so fun!!

Yay for doing good deeds!!

Knocking..... no one answered....

So we let ourselves in.... (haha)

Writing our "love letter"

PS. I am super lazy and Darlene had already posted... so i basically stole her story (even though i was in it) and put it on here just changed a couple details.

CALIFORNIA!!!! and a BUTT load-o-picta's!!!

My awesome amazing family went to Cali to go camping on the beach and to get our party on!

This is our adorable ball of happiness!

The first night we got there we were able to stay with my cousin Andrea and her amazing, hilarious family! Her husband is a Marine and they live on base, in the cutest little house. And they were so generous to let us come invade there home for the couple night before going and setting up our tent at the camp sight. Her oldest boy is just younger than Jonathan and has a guitar, and Jonathan was in Heaven! If he could have a guitar strapped to him so he could take it any where he wanted... he TOTALLY would!

So i caught him in the act

My best friend Tori also got to come along for the ride! She is freaking hilarious and I'm almost positive that she is supposed to be my sister.

See how well she fits in?

Perfect!

Then we had to go set up our tent... and don't worry... we didn't just stand around and watch Jonathan do it all....... (haha)

Ummmm.... k maybe i lied a little...

But then the most AMAZING thing happened!!! I got to see ELDER GARY WHITING!!!

He looked so great! Gary happened to be in Andrea's ward and was being transfered that very Tuesday and so we went to church and saw him and got to hear him speak! And hahaha don't worry the first thing he said to us after sacrament meeting was

"Surprise!! I'm fat!"

No such thing! He looked amazing! He was so happy and it was seriously the best surprise ever!

LOVE YOU GARY!!

---------------

Then it was onto the best week ever! Starting out the greatest and then it just kept getting better and better!

Tori and i did some jumping pictures!!!! haha but she claims she isn't very good at them (lies) so she only did a couple.

Then jonathan did it with me. I wanted to do jumping pictures and so i kinda made him do them with me so i wasn't don't them alone. :) he's the best

seriously?!

This on has to be one of my favorites!! hahahahaha just look at him!

gotta love him though!

Again don't worry I just fell asleep... on my stomach... in the sun.... and the next day could not play in the sun... or on the beach... or in the water... but it's all good!

On to the beautiful faces!

YEs we are all eating some sort of junk food...

Another day at the beach! Mind you i was in long pants and a long sleeved shirt.... seriously... no jokes. So i was the photographer for the day! :)

on word.

S-T-U-D

Then we partied it up at Sea World!

He kissed tori on the cheek..... he Lubed her :)

hahaha so Tori and i took this picture and then Dawn took Britton away and said...

"umm.. you look like Lesbian Lovers with your new baby... so give him to me."

Did anyone know that Sea World did little parades with the Flamingos??! Because I sure didn't!! I Have been going to see world almost my entire life and have just discovered this wonderful thing! It rocked!

(ok they called it a parade but they just let a bunch of them come play in the grass for a little bit)

We got to say hi!

One said hi back! haha

CUE THE MANATEE PICTURES!!

(what can i say... it's tradition!)
