The last Tuesday as a single woman.

My dear friend Kourtney is engaged to be wed next Tuesday. Can you believe it?! ENGAGED TO BE WED!!!! So last night I attended a bachelorette party in her honor.  The food, company, and of course, the conversations and laughs were all priceless. Despite my utter confusion when the "married's" start to discuss and counsel about...you know...the wedding night, I still had a great time. I even won  naughty kiss lip gloss that is supposed to "stimulate my lips and intensify my intimate connection"!!! WOOT WOOT!

Can't wait for the big day next week! Love you my Asian-halfsie twin.

(Look how sexy you look in this picture - bangin' body if I do say so myself!)
(I just put "bangin" without thinking....and then realized the depth of that expression. :) GO SPENS!!)
(Is all of this blog appropriate?!)

MEH!

After running 5 miles and dancing on an ankle that already hurt for some mysterious reason, my mom forced me to go to the doctors. According to her, "you won't ever stay off it unless a doctor makes you". Well...I went to the doctors. I guess I stretched a ligament and I can only walk on it for the next month. I just looked at the doctor with wide eyes after he told me that. Does he realize that I'm an exercise junkie and a dance teacher? Uhh....nothing but walking for a month??...that ain't happenin' doc! I actually told him that. I think I said something along the lines of "dancing is my lively-hood, how am I supposed to EAT?!" He didn't think that was funny. He told me he would put me in a boot if I couldn't control myself. Whaaaaat?! A boot for a swollen ankle? That is unheard of people! After much discussion - which was really just him lecturing me about staying off my ankle ( I think he could tell that I wasn't taking his "doctorly advice" very well) - he and I settled for this little cutie....

Seems a little over kill, I know.  I've only worn it once and my ankle is still buggin'. Obviously I need to stop being so stubborn and admit that my poor ankle needs a rest! But while I'm still refusing to give my ankle the time it needs to heal, will someone please answer this question for me? Why is it that when the doctor office looks like this...

 

...it still takes me a solid 20 minutes to see the doctor?! Unreal.

Dyed Hair.

Tennis anyone?

While in St. George, my family played tennis a couple of times. I thought I was pretty good, take a look and tell me what you think! :)

How's my form?

How's my game face?

How's my whiff?? Or I guess you can say whiffS.

How's my face lookin' right after my mom hit me square in the eye with a speeding tennis ball while I was looking at my camera?

Okaaaaaay. So I sucked! Tennis is obviously not my forte :). I don't know how my mom managed to capture so many terrible pictures of me, but she did. I need to learn some serious skills from these pro's...

Ha! I wouldn't call my mom a "pro" but she DID manage to aim right for my face and nail it spot on...so sure! That's pro worthy skill in my book.

Tennis with the fam = priceless. I didn't even mind everyone making fun of me. It takes talent to be as terrible as I was, pure talent.

Best Trip.

My family booked it down to St. George this weekend for some BIG things...

BIG thing #1 - BABY!!! The parentals decided on a name for this little bugger. Maylie Nicole Laws. Adorable, right?

 

BIG thing #2 - My handsome, amazing, hilarious brother Ryan not only had a baby this weekend, but he was also ordained an Elder on Sunday. So much joy and many, many tears filled that room, it was such an incredible event. I'm so proud of that kid and I sure do love him to pieces.

I love road trips and this one was extra special. I hope you all had a splendid weekend!

She's here, She's here, She's here!
