Hey Grannie!

Just wanted to say that I love you.

And thanks for always reminding me to update my blog, it's good to know that I have followers such as yourself.  But really, you're the best, and I love you.

I wish Sunday came more than once a week....

I love chillin' all day with the people I love most.

My bed is my best friend...

I'm sick. My esophagus is on fire. I can't breathe, swallow, or eat without wanting to cry. The doctor said something about an ulcer...but worse. He also said my medicine won't really kick in until Monday. I guess I just won't breathe, swallow, or eat until then.

I bet she felt like a movie star...

I can't believe that my best friend/sister is old enough to go to Homecoming.  I sometimes think she is still the little girl who used to watch me put on my makeup and press the pedals under the piano while I played because I was to short to reach them myself.  But she's all grown up now, dating boys and driving cars. Bizarre.

Her Homecoming date was Jordan Maw.
Her nail and eyebrow plucking specialist was the Mother.
Her fashion designer was Aubz.
Her hair and makeup artist was yours truly.
Her funds provider aka: money man, was the Father.
And the face and body that truly made everything look stunning belonged to the Nikster.

Check out my Dad creepin' in the window :)

Love you baby girl. I hope you felt like rockstar 'cause you sure looked like one.

Montana Madness Continued.

Aight playas, here's day two,  kinda mixed with day three....and the rest of the trip. I can't remember what happened on what day anymore, it's old news and my brain is filled with BYU educational type stuff now.

The days consisted of bailing hay, changing sprinklers, cooking meals, shooting guns, riding horses (but mostly trying to catch them), hiking, hair cuts, playing the piano, sleeping in, homework (insert frowny face here), and lots of other mindless activities. I spent some time wandering and exploring my grandparents ginormous piece of property with nothing but my camera and my thoughts to keep me company, it was so relaxing and TOTALLY NEEDED PEOPLE!

Hee hee....look at my mom try to jump on the horsie...

Okay, so I took Niki on a little exploring hike with me, and we came across this boat! So we turned it over, cleaned it out, and took it out onto the pond. We were so scared! The boat was so old, it was filled with bugs, and it weighed a ton! The pond was dirty, and neither of us know how to paddle very well (I don't think we knew that until we were already out on the pond and couldn't steer). BUT it ended up being so fun/hilarious. You should have seen us trying to pull it back up onto land. I know we look strong, but....we're not. It was hard.

We wanted to take my mom and Aubree out on the pond with us, so we went back the next day with them and snapped some pics.

And that basically sums up the trip. It was rad. So totally rad.



Just a side note...

I miss this handsome boy today.

Miles and miles and miles.

I feel like I have been a traveling fool lately.  St. George, New York, Arizona, and Montana have all been visited by yours truly in the last 3 weeks.  Montana was a hit! One of my favorite vacations I've taken in a long time. It was so relaxing and nothing beats being with the family.

I took five bazillion pictures, so...I'm going to split up the days instead of having one huge post :)

Day One: State Fair...

The whole family felt sick after the long day at the fair. I think it was the huckleberry shakes, steak kabobs, potato chips, icecream, cotton candy, corn dogs, funnel cakes, hamburgers, fries, and stir fry noodles that made us sick. Ya think? Aaaaaand,  I'm ashamed to admit that we had multiple, yes multiple, of each item listed above. Mmmmm, it was a great day. Did I mention we rode movie star camels???
