COUCH BURNING CERIMONY!!!!!!!

So on Tuesday night April 28, 2009... after an AMAZING enrichment meeting Hannah Jackson and I removed my couch from my little apartment. Keith Payne and some of his buddies loaded it up in the truck an off we went to find some desert. Hannah Jackson, Wendy Carling, Stephanie Lunt, and I rode on the couch in the bed of the truck...it was so fun. When we go the the spot where we were gonna burn it...the boys strapped it down tighter to the truck and then we went off roading on the couch..it was a BLAST!!!! After a while the couch started to break. Then we drove to a better spot to burn it where the wind wouldn't be so bad. The boys soaked it w/ gasoline and then lit it!!! oh man it was so great!!! After it was on fire...Carol Perkins ran and jumped over the FLAMING couch!!!!!

Wendy, Steph, Me and Hannah

MY BEST FRIEND IS HOME!!

Yesterday was one of the greatest days of my life! My best friend in the whole wide world got home from his mission. He got home about 3pm and then was released as a missionary about and hour later. I know all this because of his awesome cousin Matt. I am so excited to see him. I will be making a SURPRISE visit home to see him and my family and then make it back to T-Town before Institute Graduation...it is going to be a very quick trip but TOTALLY worth every hour I have to be in a car. I wasn't going to be able to see him until I went home after school got out but then I found out he is speaking on Sunday and so Wendy said "If you want to go home I will take you if you pay for gas" I was so excited....I said " you would do that for me?" she told me yes she would. I'm so excited and thankful for her and her love for me!!! Wendy is coming with me and its going to be great. I will update everyone on my weekend after it happens. Last night about 9:00 or so Wendy and Stephanie(my new roomies for next semester) went out to the hot tubs and had an amazing night! I love the two of them so much and am glad that they are my friends.

WHY won't he leave me alone!!!!!?

Have you ever had someone who wouldn't leave you alone!? Well I have and I don't know what to do. This person that I dated for about 2 weeks won't leave me alone. I'm afraid that he still has feelings for me and its making our friendship AWKWARD!!! He thinks that its funny to annoy me and I just shrug it off because I'm trying to be patient. Well ignoring doesn't seem to work that well cause he didn't get it the first time. Last night at the dance he grabbed me in the hall way while I was talking to some friends and he was dancing w/ me but it was an AWE dance....then he walked away and came back and rubbed my back and said...keep in mind he is rubbing my back "Sorry to make that awkward for you" then he walked away. He made it very AWKWARD for me and idk what to do. I know I need to tell him that we can't be friends if he is gonna act like this but idk how to do that either w/ out crushing his heart again. HELP!!!!!!!!! I wish I knew what to do but I'm definitely lost on this one.

The EGGventures of Yuma!!

Shelli and I went home to see my family on Friday. I was so excited to see them. We were in Tucson and we got pulled over by a police officer...she was a very raunchy lady. Anyway as we got back on the road I got a text from my brother Ryan and he told me that he got a surprise for me and he wouldn't even give me any clues to what it was. In the mean time I was reading New Moon to Shelli as she drove. I read 3 chapters that day. I was also sick so after the 3rd chapter I had to stop because my voice was going out. It was a great ride. We talked about all kinds of stuff. So about 4:30 We finally made it to the fair and saw my family! Ryan showed me what he had made for me! I love it so much! Here it is

We had a great time at the fair. It was so fun and it brought back great memories. I miss it a lot. I never thought I would miss it so much but I do! So while we were there Shelli and I were able to pet a Kangaroo Joey and saw some really cute pigs and other things. We saw them in the petting zoo. The Joey was so cute and so soft and fluffy!

Also while we were there we saw some cute sea lions but wasn't able to get close enough to take a picture. My little sister went on stage to help w/ a magic trick. We were waiting for the hypnotist so to start. She was so crazy. I have never seen her so crazy before. While passing the goats on time we saw this cute little pygmy goat and it was inside of its food. It was so cute.


I went with mom into a building to get a Cinnamon roll and I saw Aunt Janet and Uncle Steven w/ the kids. It was great to see them. I miss them so much. Well While I was waiting to say hi I overheard Janet telling someone that Josh is coming home on April 22nd!! I can't wait to see him! My best friend is finally coming home!!!

The best part of the whole trip! So Sunday afternoon mom told me to take some eggs home w/ us and give them away. So I took 4 dozen because that was all that would fit into the cooler. So she told me to call Emilee and have her bring me some more. Well so Emilee got the other cooler and put eggs in it but they wouldn't fit. So she Brilliant as she is thought of some other way to put them in the cooler. Shelli, my mom, my dad and I laughed so hard when she told us the story. Well she couldn't fit them in the cooler w/ the cartons so she took them out and put them in a gallon sized freezer bag!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! 3 DOZEN!!!!!!!

We laughed for so long! We laughed all the way home from Yuma! It was the funniest thing all day! Only one of them broke and Emilee broke it while bringing it to the fair. We strapped the eggs down like children in the car. It was a funny site!! We got back to Thatcher and to our surprise all 7 dozen eggs survived!!!!! YAY!!! It was a great time!
