One Heck of a Good Birthday!

Today was my birthday and I got beyond spoiled! My day started off with a 5:00 am wake up call, followed by a very successful skating lesson! As soon as I got to school I got dozens of hugs from my amazing friends! Right as a was walking into 1st period Kt attacked me with jewelry, sunglasses, feather scarves, and a RIDICULOUS amount of sparkles! I was covered from head to toe! So walking into 1st period late and in costume was a bit awkward but as soon as I took one little piece off someone got mad! I was stuck with that costume all day! At first I was self-concious but by the end of the day I really didn't care.

When I was walking to seminary my car was looking a little odd so we investigated and I found cute notes all over the windows! MADE MY DAY! All that reading made me late for seminary, but when I got there Kt was sure to announce my entrance! AWKWARD...right when the class had finally stopped looking at me, two girls ran into the classroom yelling "special delivery!". They had a note from the office and had been told to sing to me...yes, Hailey somehow got these girls to bring me a birthday card and a song! My next mistake was opening the card during the devotional because I soon realized that the card sings when opened...oops! Maybe that's why my seminary teacher always says I need to stay focused! He doesn't like me.

Third period was just another mess of sparkles! My random teacher couldn't stop laughing at the fact that everything around me had sparkles on it! I couldn't move without sparkling something!

Lunch was awesome! My poor car got attacked for the second time! It was kinda the talk of the school! :) Plus Kami sluffed school to come eat lunch with us! Thanks Kam!

The last 2 classes were just as fun! My teachers just laughed at my struggle to contain the sparkles!

After school I was supposed to go on a date but it turned into talking on my lawn because my friend showed up to give me a gift right when he came to pick me up. Then as soon as she left I had to got to work. So that date was a fail!...Sarah owes me ice cream now!

After work I got to go to dinner with my dad! I love spending one on one time with my parents it makes me feel so close to them! I really can tell my parents anything.

My day ended with late night homework and a yummy treat from Steph and Alyssa! These girls completed my birthday in the perfect way!

This was at lunch when I saw the final attack of my car!...The school cop was not impressed...

The masterminds behind the second attack!

Even the kisses on my car were drenched in sparkles!

JUNIOR PROM

Prom was yesterday! I figure it's more fun if I just skip the summary and show the pictures so here you go!

These are the cute girls that I would have died without. You guessed it: my hair stylists (Left- Rachel Right- Laurel)

I love both of these girls! They are just plain gorgeous! (left-Kami right-Sarah)

I finally found Hailey at the end of the dance! I was so excited!

We went to The Garden for dinner. (left-Me middle-Sarah right- Biz)

This was my ultimate prom pal, Gia! I think at one point people thought she was my date.

I CAN DO THIS!

There have been just too many surprises this week! 1- I past all three of my skating tests! AHHHH 2- I got a 99% on my physics test 3- There have been a freakishly lot of spiritual experiences this week 4- Life has just gotten too good! 5- I get to skype my brother Michael on Sunday! It will be the closest thing we have been to face to face in over a year and a half! I'm beyond excited! 6- I ONLY HAVE TO BE A JUNIOR AT BRIGHTON HIGH SCHOOL FOR 26 MORE DAYS (17 not including weekends (15 not including the week that teachers don't take role and nobody goes!))  This school year has gone by just too fast! I'm so ready for summer but I can't imagine how senior year will top this year! Don't worry guys we can do this! We are sooooo close to summer!

I'm one luckiest girl on the ice!

 Last weekend I got to finally perform my synchro dance for all to see! It was so fun! My synchro team made this performance my favorite by far. It's a lot less nerve racking to perform with a team then it is all my yourself on that big block of ice. My biggest fans showed up to the show! Most of my sisters, my brother-in-law, my parents, and Kami. I love these people!

When I got home I went to watch my performance but found this instead! So naturally I had to put it up on my blog. Love it!

WELCOME HOME SARAH! IT WAS A LONG 5 MONTHS!

Life as a Babysitter

Life as a babysitter never really gets old! I love it! This week I got to babysit Sawyer (three years old) and Baby Graham (almost a year and a half). These boys are constantly cracking me up but Sawyer really out did himself this week!

Before I tell my story I have to add some back round information. Sawyer's parents LOVE to be in the scoop of my dating life! I can't see Nathan without him asking me who took me out the weekend before and who's next. Yeah he thinks I go out every night. NOT EVEN CLOSE!

So I'm sitting there on the living room floor watching Graham try to keep his eyes open and reading books to Sawyer. Suddenly Sawyer stops me and looks at me in a very serious manner. He then asks me, "Been on any dates lately?" I look at him and decide to just go along with it, I respond by saying, "No, but I hung out with a cute boy a couple of days ago." Without even pausing he asked what we did. I said, "We just watched a movie." Sawyer looked at me in shock and said, " YOU DIDN'T GO SWIMMING! If I take you on a date can we go swimming?"...What is a babysitter supposed to say to that!?! Of course I was way too entertained to stop the conversation so I told him about how I don't know how to swim. Sawyer gave me that huge smile and said, "Me neither! But you're big so you have to swim." Haven't heard that one before! I roll my eyes and said, "Sawyer you're big too!" I think this offended Sawyer because after that we spent a good 5 minutes debating who should be able to swim. This post just doesn't do that conversation justice! It was definitely on my top 10 best conversations with a three year old list!

I really love this boy! The whole time I was wishing I could get out my camera and record the conversation but I knew that would get Sawyer off topic! 

The things I do for this girl!

Alright so I'm finally home and it's time to get down to business! Birthday business! Kami doesn't know I'm home yet but she will when I just so happen to run into her at City Creek! Hailey is taking her and little does she know I'm going to pop up behind them! Words cannot explain how excited I am to give that girl a hug! Last night Mary and I ran around trying to figure out the perfect gift and I think we nailed it! Then this morning Hailey and I woke up early, put on shoes, brushed our teeth, went to Dan's to buy some cups (we only ran into 1 person that we knew, thank goodness!), and headed for the freeway! For those of you who haven't already seen our beautiful sign here is a picture!

We call Kami Kam a lot so we figured an I wasn't necessary..plus we ran out of cups...somehow Happy B-Day Kam took 300 cups

Hailey, you're just so cute!

This picture really doesn't show how freezing it was!

Yes that was us! :) It was freakin freezing so I hope Kami actually notices it! Hailey and I were in a lot of pain thanks to purple toes and bright red fingers. But we accomplished what we went there to do! Without our hilarious humor and support from our local random honking cars we didn't give up! 1,000 jokes and 19 honks later we finished and it looks pretty good! I really hope it is appreciated! GO SEE IT!

It's safe to say were happy to see eachother! Watching Kami freak out when she saw me was so fun!

Can you tell that we really love eachother?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAMI!

Arizona was so much fun! But it's good to be home!!!!!!!!!!!

Playing Golf with the Big Boys!

I DID IT! I PLAYED GOLF WITH THE BIG BOYS (Mary and Mark)! On some random Saturdays I wake up and find out Mark and Mary went golfing without me. Well I wasn't going to let that happen this trip! I decided to see what the big deal is. So I turned down my vocal cords and got serious...k maybe the serious thing didn't really happen, but I tried! At first we just did the driving range but then we moved onto the real thing!..(a par 3 doesn't mean make it into 3 holes then eat ice cream like I thought). Nope it means NINE holes, yes nine. I'm sorry, golfing was fun for the first 4 holes but I got a bit bored.....But those 9 holes taught me something about myself 1- I don't completely suck at golf 2- Keep smiling and enjoy the ride because then Dad will buy you a treat! :)

The only reason I post this one is because it's the only one where I look like I know what I'm doing.

.....see this is a not so coordinated one....I think I was faking it though...

The rest of our vacation was simply spent baking in the sun! The last day of living it up I turned into a nerd. I actually turned down the water to read my book! WHO DOES THAT!?!?! I never thought that little girl reading in the shade at a water park would be me but it was!!!!!! That book just got a hold of me. I highly recommend reading "The Maze Runner" - it's really sssssssssoooooooooooo good!!!!!!!

I was really sad to leave Arizona but it's time to see my best friends again! I think I might die if I don't give Kami and Hailey a hug really really soon.

We just saw this on the way home and couldn't pass it without a picture!
