The Big A** Show

Yesterday I got to go to a huge concert with some of my pals! It was pretty much 8 hours of non-stop music! I really got sick of being around people who were drinking, smoking, and swearing but when I didn't pay attention to them it was so fun! It was impossible to keep the whole group together the whole time thanks to the huge crowds. For the Imagine Dragons part I just so happened to lose everyone in the group except for Sarah and Nicole. Which is alright with me! Imagine Dragons is my favorite band!
 
I took pictures of the high lights.
 
I told you it was crowded!

The best part of the concert was when Zach pretended to propose to Alexis. Everyone around us noticed he was getting down on one knee and just freaked out! The whole place was congratulating them and applauding! Alexis played along and started to tear up! SO FUNNY! Somehow people didn't seem to mind that they are barely 17!
 
After the concert we passed way too many opportunities for pictures that could not be passed up. This ended up being one of the best parts of the night.
 

 
We are children!
This one is my favorite and I have no clue why...

 
As we put the camera on a timer this guy walked past and decided to strike a pose! (making Alyssa's pose perfect)
 
The best part about this picture is some random cute boys took it for us. Other than that this picture isn't even cool....
 
My all time favorite part of the night was right there! Eatin' smoothies on the kitchen floor. The bigger the spoon+ the bigger the bites+ the bigger the smoothie mustaches+ the better the pictures+ the louder the giggles+ one extra secret ingredient ;) = one hilarious memory
Today we went to a farewell so of course the camera came with!
 

Somehow the missionary leaving didn't make it into any of the pictures. But these are pretty much the girls that I spend the most time with.

Homecoming! Part 2

What a weekend!! Friday was the Brighton vs Alta game which is pretty much a huge deal. We lost....but that's okay because it was crazy!
Saturday is when the real fun happened though! Since our homecoming was a week before everyone else, Alyssa and I decided to crash a couple homecomings.
 
Before we went out and partied we had to get this girl ready for her real date! Hillcrest Homecoming.

 
Then a photo shoot afterwards.
 
 
I know. We are losers. But it's fun.
 
 
That poor guy probably felt so awkward when we found out her mom wasn't here, instead her 2 best friends were!



 
Our first stop was a quick one. Olympus High School doesn't know how to throw a party. First of all we waited in the car for 20 minutes until people actually showed up...(an hour after the dance started)
Then while walking to the dance we got a quick glimpse of what was going on. Let me tell ya. There was nothing going on! Everyone was just huddled in awkward groups standing there looking like they had never heard music before. LAME! I wasn't about to pay $10 for that. Plus I decided it was a bad idea to risk seeing people I knew. So we went to the front and took pictures. My car was on the grass allowing my headlights to shine on us. Yes. We were judged. No. We didn't really care.
 
 
While driving to the next location we say lanterns in the pond at a huge park. So we thought we would go wedding crashing since we were all dressed up!....It wasn't a wedding

 
Some old Vietnamese couple handed us lanterns and told us to make a wish by putting them into the pond. I wasn't about to put mine in there! We kept them and are freakishly protective of them.


 
This really did get us so excited! I'm pretty sure that party makes us at least 1/4 Vietnamese or something!
 
 
East was our final stop! The first hour was full of crappy music and us getting trapped in the middle of a mosh pit. By the second hour we were having a good time! They finally started playing good music and we were finally not caring that we were the only ones not dirty dancing!

 
These boys called us over the stairs and asked us what our names are. I said I would tell them if I could get a picture. 2 seconds later this was taken. 5 seconds later I was running away so I didn't have to say my name.

 
Thanks for the fun night Alyssa! I had the best time ever!

Homecoming

Last night was by far my favorite dance! This time I didn't get sick of my date, my group was fantastic, they had good music pretty much the whole time, one of my friends was homecoming royalty, we went paint balling, I was somehow ready over 1 hour early, my dress had pockets, and it was just freakin fun! What more could a girl ask for?
I think this is the first time we had time to take pictures and I wasn't racing to finish getting ready!

Meet Mitch!

All of these girls were so fun to be around all nigh!

All of these boys are absolutley insane! They are a crazy group!

WIth the fun ladies and the crazy boys we really had a good time!

Livin with Alexis!

This weekend I was offered the awesome job of house sitting while my boss and her family went on a big camping trip. Who could ever turn down this job!?!?! My only responsibilities were: 1. Feed the two dogs twice a day 2. Let the dogs out of the house every 7 or so hours 3. Sleep there 4. Walk the dogs once a day. EASY! I pretty much got paid to have a sleepover! It was awesome. By the end of the weekend Alexis and I felt a married couple. She really is officially one of my very best friends! The entire weekend was full of giggling, eating everything we could get our hands on,  watching movies, hardly any sleeping, and LOTS of boy talk. It was your average sleepover! Every night we found a restaurant that was open at about 2:00 and just pigged out! It was one amazing weekend! Thanks Alexis!
Loving our fun little walks.


The cars driving by were definitely judging us.

Sarah joined us on the first night! We really did end up falling asleep like this! You know you're tired if you fall asleep mid-dog pile. If you want a good night sleep then a friend sandwich is the way to go! The bottom is highly recommended.

Ending the summer with a bang!

Summer is over. I cannot believe tonight is actually a school night. Last night was my final day to finish off my bucket list. First we enjoyed joining a huge group in covering each other from head to toes in chocolate syrup and going down a massive slide! It was by far one of the best moments of summer! I loved it! Even though I don't like chocolate because it smells bad and tastes even worst, it was still so so so so much fun! I highly recommend it.
I am absolutely in love with this girl!

Why use hair jell when you've got chocolate?

 While driving home I had chocolate dripping down my face. This horrified the two 30 ish year old men in the car next to us because they thought it was blood. They started screaming out their windows, "GO TO THE HOSPITAL!" It was hilarious.
 
Next we played twister paint! All you gotta do is get a twister board, put paint on the dots, and begin the slimy challenge of putting your left foot on blue and your right foot on yellow!
 
There's Kami, Haley, Hailey, Alyssa!
 
 
 
After being covered in chocolate, hosing ourselves off, being covered in paint, then running through sprinklers, we decided to go jump into a pool. This is where we got really lucky.
 
The blonds decided to stay in the car while us brunettes began walking over to the pool. Right when we were grabbing at the fence to climb up we look at the parking lot to find Hailey starting to run from a cop car. First rule, when you see a cop stay where you are! We let go of the fence and as calmly and innocently as possible began walking back to my car while the officer talked to Hailey and Kami. They drive off and it's my turn to chat. He looked at me with that same horrified look and I explained it was chocolate not blood! After a little bit of me chit chatting with him he told us the park was closed and we needed to leave. We hurried out and called the other two girls. They thought we were dead meat! The night ended with us almost jumping into my friends nasty pond (we were just too freezing to do it), eating cheese crackers with apple sauce (my dad's favorite thing ever), and taking a really long shower!
 
This has been such a fun and exciting summer! I really hope senior year is half as good as this summer has been!

Lessons Learned

Time for a list of things I've learned this past week.

6. Your parents are and always will be your best friend.

7. Prayer changes things.

8. Country dancing is absolutely my new favorite thing to do on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

9. Grass hoppers are not meant to be eaten so don't bribe Alexis or she will do it!

Hennas and Boating DON'T Mix

There is one more week of my 2012 summer. I cannot believe how fast summer has gone by. I'll admit this week wasn't the best of the summer but it still had it's amazing moments.
 
 Alyssa, Alexis, and I decided to cross henna tattoos off my bucket list on Tuesday. We went to hobby lobby, got some top it frozen yogurt, then went to work inking ourselves. At first Alyssa was responsible and made sure we didn't go too crazy. We each got a turtle tattoo on our wrist....then Alyssa left and things got out of control! Alexis and I didn't want to waste any ink so we just kept going! We decided to write mom on her arm, draw Utah on my neck, then we really got stupid and wrote our crush's names on our stomach. Okay, here's some advice. When doing henna tattoos or any tattoos don't write a boys name on yourself. The reason I say this is because a good 3 days later I went boating with these boys! OOPS!!!!!! Alyssa missed picture taking up she was definitely involved in this crime!


 
 
Boating ended up being great, even though Sarah was teasing me about what was written on my stomach the whole time. Luckily Mitch has no idea his name is on there with the i dotted with a heart and everything! Thanks for taking us boating Dad!
Here's the crew!
