Conference Weekend!

This week seriously was one of the best and funnest weeks i've had in Cedar City yet! It was conference weekend so we watched all four sessions of conference! This year was so great! The speakers were all so amazing! Some of my favorites though were Henry B. Eyring, Russell M. Nelson, Dallin H. Oaks from Saturday's sessions, and Dieter F. Uchtdorf, Paul V. Johnson, Lynn G. Robbins, and Jeffrey R. Holland from the Sunday sessions.

Also this week it was open mic night at Costa Vida, and I sang "before he cheats" by Carrie Underwood. It was the first time i had really ever performed and it was so scary! But lots of fun! I also tried catching snakes, fed a snake a rat, went rock climbing, went to a bomb fire, played night games at discovery park(which is the biggest most amazing park ever), went to panda for dinner one night, went to the apex building which is like this huge rec center with bball courts, kitchen, theater rooms, pool tables, ping pong, video game rooms, ect. We played some fun games and watched the movie "tourist".

Also this weekend we went to this place called the Gothum. Its kind of out of my element a lot of rock bands go and perform at it, but it was actually a ton of fun, we then we went hot tubing and watched a movie.

I must say though that the most epic thing we did this weekend was go through a car wash! We got in the back of a truck in our swim suites and went through it! I wish we could have gotten pics of when we were in it, or a video, but we didn't want anyone's camera getting ruined so we just took pics before and after!

Seriously though, such an amazing weekend full of spiritual and FUN!

Color Fest!


So most of you I'm sure have heard of the color fest! This is the 4th or 5th year I believe it has been going on, and I just live down the road from it, and I never been, so i thought it was about time i go! Elsha and I came up for it, and met up with a bunch of girls from High School and our Roommate Alissa came with us too! It was such a blast! Nothing like a giant chalk fight with 40,000 people! :)


Spring Break 2011!





For Spring Break this year I just went home. It was so nice to have a break from school, and to see old friends back home. My roommate Megan came up from Vegas the last couple days too. We went to spark, and saw a few of the SUU baseball games, went to the BYU young ambassadors show, went to yogurt bliss, and just hung out with a few of my friends. It was such a fun week full of adventure, but too bad I have to go back to school. :(

Forest in the Elevator


So the other day on facebook my roommates and I see a status talking about how there is a forest in the elevator? We were curious what that meant so we ran down the hallway to our elevator and to our surprise there were tons of trees just sitting in the elevator. We later find out it was our friends Jared and Nate. We thought it was the funniest thing ever we had to get a pic with it. Later that night we decided to hide behind the trees and scare people that came into the elevator. It was kind of funny to me that people would actually get into the elevator with all those trees...but they would. We would wait a second while they were just standing there and then start screaming and shaking the trees. They would scream so loud! It was great scaring people!

Shaving some man hairs

YUP! We did it! We finally got the boys to shave! ha ha. Our friends Nate and Jared have always been talking about how they think it would be funny to shave their legs, but they never had the guts to. So one night we finally got them too! It was so funny! Now they have legs as smooth as a babies bottom!

Masquarade Ball


For Sam Raleigh's 19th Birthday Party, she had some boys put on a Masquarade Ball for her! It was so much fun! It was just nice to get all dressed up again, like the good ol' days when we used to go to high school dances. They also had Ping Pong and air hockey and a huge pool! A couple of our friends from Cedar came up for it to, and it was nice to get together with a lot of the girls from high school.


St. George and Vegas!




So my friend Kali invited my roomate Elsha, and our our friend Ashby to go stay in her 2nd home in St. George for the weekend with two of her guy friends. It was a lot of fun! We went out to eat one night at Red Robin, went hiking to the Dixie sign and just explored up there, got milk shakes, watched the movie "taken", played guitar and had a jam out session, and just stayed up talking all night. The following day we made a nice breakfast for everyone, watched the BYU vs. Sandiago St. game. (We Jimmered them of course! ;) and then on a total whim decided to go to Vegas! We just went window shopping, went to macaroni grill for dinner, and saw the Belajio water show. The next day we just talked, went for a walk, and played a few games before heading home! Such a fun trip, and it was nice to get out of Cedar for the weekend! :)
