HAWAII!!! I know I know I'm WAY overdue!

Ok so I know it has been a month since Hawaii but i FINALLY have time to blog about it! Yahoo! I mostly am just going to have the pictures and then tell where we went because i don't want to boar any of the people that still read this joke of a blog... :) 

We were so excited to get on that airplane! :)

This is us taking off from arizona! 

And bothering the poor man that was sitting by me... haha! He didn't seem as enthusiastic about going to hawaii!! I think he had been before!

Hehe we were about to take off

Finally flying over Hawaii! After almost 6 hours!

SO EXCITED!!

Beautiful!

Ok so Tori and I are really dirt cheap and have super crappy camera's so we took turns taking pictures with each others camera's so the first day other than the airport pictures are on her camera and we haven't had any time to trade pictures yet... Story short, once we got there Monday around 2ish we took our luggage into Tori's Cousins house and then went straight to the beach!! IT ROCKED!

------

Tuesday we went to the beach again and laid out and got super tan!!! (oh wait i don't think that's possible! hahaha) Ok so we tried... we went to a shopping mall and I bought that cute yellow dress that i wore over my swimming suit! Then we came back to the beach and went swimming and took pictures!!! 

Oh ya and this is the shack we stayed in! AND picked up on all the cute boys! :) haha

I heart the beach!

Don't worry all the boys wanted us! We were the hottest girls on the island! :)

I set the camera on this big rock and put the timer on and then ran.... well kind of hobbled out to the end of the rocks so we could take this awesome picture! haha don't worry i almost slipped and fell in! 

--------

Wednesday we went to West Maui!! Oh ya i forgot to tell you what island we were on! Maui :)

So we went sight seeing and went to west Maui which is this beautiful drive to different beautiful picture spots! Seriously the drive was along the ocean the whole time! I could lookout my window and whale watch the whole time! Whales would just popup everywhere! Just wonderful!

We went to this cool place called like Shark tooth rocks or something like that... i don't remember the name i just remember it being really pretty! ANd freakin clear blue water! non of this crapy muggy california water! 

Then we went swimming again at another cool beach!

The landscape and weather in Hawaii is so random! One minute you are on the beach and it's sunny and then all the sudden it's raining and cold. Or you are driving on this beautiful forest like road and then it turns to desert! haha This next place didn't have a name but it was absolutely lush and green! I loved it! 

excuse my nakedness we had just gone to the beach and were on our way to another one so i wasn't going to change. 

We swung on the tree vine like tarzan! haha

Then we hiked into this rocky area... don't worry we rock climbed in sandals! haha

This is the blow hole that me and tori almost died in!!! We were walking over to look in it. Because there had been no waves to create any splash or burst of water to come out... and right when me and tori looked in it the biggest waves came crashing it, and scared the poo out of me! good thing we didn't die though! That would have been a very sad hawaii trip! 

Next was an over look of that side of the island! 

B-E-A-U-T-F-U-L!

Then we made our way back to the area where we were and walked down a little shopping strip called "front street" or something like that and did a little looking around and then i had to take a picture of the sunset because it was beautiful! 

-------

Thursday we didn't do anything too exciting. It was the only day while we were there that it was SUPER rainy and cloudy so we couldn't go to the beach or anything. So we chilled inside all day and just hung out! It was super relaxing and i loved it! 

Then that night we headed to a vegetarian all natural pizza place! I was a little scared at first but it turned out to be DELICIOUS! I had like 6 pieces! Ok so it was thin crust but still i ate a lot! :)

------

The Friday came and we went to Hana. It's a little village/town in Maui that is very traditional to the old way of  life! It's so awesome to see everything! And it was breath taking! Everything was! The view the houses everything and anything! I loved it! 

We went to a black sand beach! we didn't swim or anything because we wanted to make it to the waterfalls and have time to swim and stuff! 

WATERFALLS! 

We hiked first to see the waterfalls and this awesome tree was in the middle of the hike! It was super cool! 

We kept hiking and then all the sudden we were in the middle of a bamboo forest! It was so coolio! We took pictures of us hangin on them and doing flips and stuff! :) sweet~!

on the way back down to go and swim in the fresh water pools.... The seven falling pools or something. 

We swam in the water and those pictures are with Tori... so i have this one! :)  I cliff jumped into some water! I found out after ward that there were signs saying we couldn't..... but i didn't die and it was fun! haha

thats the cliff! (where the people are standing!)

again we are beautiful human beings! 

-------

Saturday was spent at the beach! 

then that night we went to a wedding reception! haha i think that was the first time we actually got ready for the week! I definitely brought too many clothes i spent most of my time in my swimming suit!

-----------

Sunday we went snorkeling!!!! It was so awesome! I took pictures with my underwater camera but haven't had a chance to develop them yet so i can't wait to see what those look like! We got to swim with see turtles!!! It was awesome! I'm going to lie one swam right at me and i almost wet myself! I didn't know what to do! and neither did tori. But we were out there for a really long time looking at everything! It was awesome!

Then we came home and got ready for the night. we were going to hang out with some people. Tori's cousins roommates friends... I know it's confusing, we just went to hangout with people! haha it was fun! 

Ya i got super burnt from laying out before and after going snorkeling with the fishies! :?

----------

Monday morning we woke up at the butt crack of dawn and went to the top of a volcano and waited for the sun to rise! It was FAREEZING!!! and windy but totally worth it! We were above the clouds and it was totally breath taking! LOVE IT!

We went to the beach one last time but i didn't take any pictures from that day i mostly swam and went snorkeling again and went swimming in the beautiful water! 

Then we went back to the apartment and packed out things and headed to the airport! 

Don't worry!

We almost missed our flight! We only had 10 min left that they were checking flyers and then we had to wait in the longest line ever to even get into the airport! It was crazy! And we had to run to our terminal! Haha yup you read that right. We RAN there..... like in home alone!! Tori's backpack even broke and her crap went everywhere and we had to stop and pick it up! I just wish someone had a camera or video taped us because we would be millionaires!!! It was so funny! I couldn't stop laughing! But even with all the running and crazy-ness we still made our flight and got home safely!

The first three hours of the flight home (we had a red eye flight) i made myself study because i had a big test the morning we got back! haha then i got to sleep! We got in Tuesday morning around 6ish!  

Hawaii freaking ROCKED! And i wish i could go there all the time! I miss it all the time! It was the greatest experience ever and i'm so glad i have a best friend to share it with! Tori you rock! :D 

Quick Update

Hawaii Is soon to be posted!!! There will be a BUTT load of pictures with explanations and everything! I have the best time ever and I'm home safe... I even have already taken a test! I put life on hold and now it is kicking me in the butt! I flew in this morning around 6:30ish saw dawn at the air port as she was leaving to Utah and Idaho, and then came home for a little while and then was off to school! (bleck!) I had a test in my first hour and then got out early so now i am in the computer lab blog stocking and writing letters... Because I got 3 letters while I was gone! Yup you read that right! 3!! One from Jacob in Florida, one from Channing in Brazil, and one from Brian in Washington State! I seriously was freaking excited! That's what i did right when i got home was rip them open and read 'em! I miss them all so much but am so proud of them for serving the Lord and being faithful servants in The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Later-Day Saints! They rock my world and keep me goin when i get letters! I read all the trials and struggles they are having and then all the miracles and joys and it makes me humble and want to be better! I love my missionaries! And i love this gospel so much! I seriously wouldn't know what i would do without it! Anywho, I have to get back to my writing before my dance class starts... (which is going to kick my butt because i'm so tired! The red eye flight was no fun! with all the studying and no sleep... yuck!) Updatcha lata~!

Aloha!!

Sunday Fun!

I have the most awesome-est friends!!! They Rock my world and I'm glad they are goofy like me! SO I met up with Tori and Darlene to go to a game night at one of our friends houses... but we were told that they were going to be playing games and there would be ice cream there.... well when we got there, there was no ice cream, and no one was playing games. So! I remembered we had some at our house, so we recruited Keith from that party and came to have a party of our own at my house! Which rocked!

We played Quarters!!

(object of the game is to go around in a circle taking turns trying to flip the quarter in the middle cup, and when someone does everyone has to drink the water in front of them... and if you're last to finish the water in front of you than you have to fill it up and drink more. The first person to go to the bathroom, either in the bathroom or in their pants looses! haha it is so hilarious!!) 

Keith was PRO!! haha me and tori and darlene and to try not to pee out pants because we were laughing so hard, and he would just open up guzzle and be done before we even had time to take a drink! haha Darlene kept spitting it out into the sink so she didn't choke when she laughed, I had to keep from wetting myself because tori couldn't stop snorting! hahahaha We just called Keith the winner and tried a new game.

We were trying to flip the cup so that it would land on the top. It's really hard! There's a game involved but we were just having too much fun trying to get it to flip!

Darlene was trying to bounce the quarter into the cup.

hahahaha darlene was having everyone have black hair.

Keith's was the funniest!

Trying to flip the cup!

ICE CREAM!!! 

Don't worry... we ate the WHOLE carton.

We set the timer... and took wiggle pictures... except with our whole bodies. Not just with our faces! We're hot!

My friends are beautiful people and they make my life full of happiness! LOVE IT!!!

Weddings!!!

Hole crap i haven't Posted in a while... but that's only because my life isn't really that exciting, and i don't have any pictures! to post... so it's not exciting at all! so..... i could just ramble about nothing and then laugh when people actually sit and read my time wasting blog/post! haha... Anyway. the real reason I was writing this post was to congradulate my two bestest friends in the whole world! Ashley Johnson and Carrie Whiting! They are both getting married, and i am so happy for both of them (even a little jealous... but only a little) Ash is marrying Chad Carton, and Carrie is marrying her Missionary John Snyder! It is so exciting! and it is coming up SO FAST! They both seem so happy and i will miss ashley and chad when they move to Washington, but it's good to know he will take good care of her! And i don't have a picture of Carrie and John yet (only ones from 2 years ago and i don't feel like digging through my box of pictures right now! haha) But i am so excited for them too!!Ok SO there are like a gazillion other girls that are getting married too, and i've gotten all these announcements and stuff so i decided to do some wedding looking myself. Just because... (haha and because Deanna told me to look for a square cake since she knows how to make them and decorate them now, so i can have one whenever i get married.. SAWEET!!)

This is what i found! 

Two cute cakes!!!  Ya i know they aren't square but I'm still looking... this is just what i found!

And this BEAUTIFUL dress!!! Honestly i just want to buy it and have it just in case!! I heart this dress and i want it! 

Anyway! haha enough with the wedding talk it makes me jealous! But it sure is fun helping out and looking anyway! haha! the end. 

Renaissance Festival!

On Saturday we (as in frank and i) went to the Renaissance Festival in Apache Junction courtesy of Country Inn & Suites-Mesa, AZ. Frank got two free tickets (and needed someone to take) so he invited ME to go with him. It was soooo much fun and the weather was perfect!! I Couldn't have asked for better weather or better company! It Rocked!! Here are some Pictures!

We started it off by getting breakfast from Crispy Cream!!! one word... YUM!

When we got there We walked into a store to see how much renting costumes would cost, just for a good laugh (umm... WAY to expensive!) So we came out and took a picture with these fun worker people! :)

Don't be jealous :)

 These things were awesome!

There was a petting Zoo thing... That is a horse behind me! It was huge and had spots like a cow!

Yes he did swallow that balloon! All the way! and then popped it in his stomach!!! It was crazy! He also swallowed some swords and hammered a nail into his nose! EEWW!

Turkey Leg! It was yummy but i couldn't finish it all! It was bigger than my head!

Frank and his "Are you serious?!" face. haha it was huge!

The Fire whip guy! he was cool! good thing he was bald!

Me and my beautiful hat!!

Waiting in line!

TO RIDE AN ELEPHANT!!

I know... We rock! (Don't be too jealous)
The cool "Moon" 
Don't worry this is Lemonade and it was his third one of the day! It was tasty I'm not going to lie!

You can make up your own comment on this one :)

All in all it was an amazing day! We also saw some fake Jousting, ate bread bowls, saw a bazillion girls wearing basically NOTHING, some jigly bellies, WAY too many boobs (or sides of them, or cleavage), Bob the dead skeleton show (not appropriate for children, probably not appropriate for me... haha),  a buncha drunk people, (haha) a man in a kilt, a man walking around with dung on a platter, a performer riding a unicycle on a tightrope (that was was amazing!)!, fantastic drummers (i have video of it, but this computer is stupid!), and a butt load of other stuff! It rocked! 

I LOVE THE RENAISSANCE FESTIVAL!
