Long Time No Talkkk.

Wellll I haven't had internet for a while so that's for the lack of blog posts, and the fact that I feel like I'm constantly busy. Also, I apologize right now for how long this post will be. I've got a lot to say though. ;) To catch everyone up, Brianne and I moved out of our old place by the capitol. :) I'm a little glad considering all the bugs that we were beginning to see ever since it started getting warmer outside. It was getting to be ridiculous, and lonely there with just Brianne and I.

Now we're living in a house right by the U. It's AWESOME! We don't need parking passes for the school year and we have the best roommates ever! There is Erin, Adri, Brianne, Braidee, and I. Braidee hasn't officially moved in yet but she'll start paying rent in July. This is probably the most fun I've had since coming to Salt Lake for college. It's comparable to the dorms. I just love it. We're meeting all these new people, we go out, and we all just have fun. :) I absolutely love it.

So we'll start with Holly's birthday. This seems like it was sooo long ago. I miss my Holly Dolly. Marshal and Holly made a long trip up to SLC Saturday morning (June 4th) and we all got ready and went to Raging Waters/Seven Peaks. I can never decide what it's called. We all had the best time ever. Seriously. Going down those slides was such an adrenaline rush! Hahaha even Marshal was scared! We all laughed so hard after going down the slides. We went down this one slide that you have to carry your own toboggan looking sled thing which was ridiculously heavy, I could barely lift it! But all these little kids passed us like it was no thang. I guess they were a lot more determined than us but it was pretty embarrassing  when you have to stop half way up the trail for a breather and twelve 5 year olds pass you carrying their own "toboggan" sled with ease. Besides the parents, I think we were the oldest people there too. Hahahah but whatever because we had a blast! Seriously one of the funniest things I had done in a long time.
After that we went to Shanghai for Holly's birthday dinner choice. It was delicious as always. :) That night we just sat around and talked after an unsuccessful trip to the park. The next morning Holly and Marshal left which sucked. I hate to see them leave because it will be at least a little while until I see them again. :(




After they left Brianne and I headed down to the Pride Parade. It was hilarious. Some of the costumes were ridiculous but it was entertaining to say the least. After that we went out with the fam. My mom, Tasha, Brianne, Ben, Luke, and Joe. We went out to noodles where we say Brianne's friend Lauryn from the polo team and we decided that Lauryn, Adri, Erin, Brianne, and I would all go shopping for things for the house. :) We went to this thrift store and we got so many awesome decoration things. I love thrift stores!



Also, Jamie and Brock came to seee us! We went out to the Sea Salt for lunch. We didn't realize how classy this place was but we definitely weren't looking classy enough haha. It was great seeing them though. We showed them our new house and Brock laughed hysterically the whole way through the house at all the things that were wrong with it. It made the rest of us laugh too. :) It is pretty funny to see how terrible the house looked before us. After lunch they had to leave though which sucked because it was such a short visit but none the less it was great to see them.

A few days later (not sure when) Brianne, Tasha, and I went to the Brett Dennon concert. I had never heard of him before but Tasha loves him so we went because the tickets were cheap. It was a small concert but it was a good show. Brett Dennon told a story about a girl that he was in love with from high school. They had gone to prom together hahah. Anyways, the girl moved to Salt Lake and met a boy from BYU and now has like 5 kids. I thought it was cute that he told that. His songs have really good lyrics but I thought he was creepy as all get out. He was like pelvic thrusting the air, and shaking his butt...eh it was way creepy. Glad I went though. His opening band was actually pretty good too. I can't exactly remember their name though,. I'll get back to you on that.



I also went to my first Salt Lake City farmers market with my Mother, Tasha, Ben, and the boys. It was alright. My mom and I got into a fight about me finding a $20 bill. My mother's side of the story is that she dropped the crinkled up bill from her wallet of perfectly folded bills as she was paying for our snow cones. My story is that she was mad that I saw it first and decided to claim it as her own. But whatever story you choose to believe. I was the biggest person and told her she could have it as long as she knew that it wasn't really hers and she was lying and the fact that I'm a starving poor college student. Moral of the story, I got the cash. Yes it was a big deal to me. :) Hahah she's going to kill me for this.

Anways, my whole family minus Nicole and Tommy and plus Kyle went to Lagoon. It was my first time for the season and I was sooo excited! I love Lagoon. I think it's just the greatest. We split up for a while so Tasha and Ben could take the boys on the little kid rides while my Mom, Brianne, Kyle and I all rode the BIG KID rides. ;) Hahah it was so much fun, minus the heat. My mom got us season passes while Kyle's family got him a season pass so needless to say we'll be going a lotttt. :) Kyle and I went to Lagoon-a-beach not to long ago either and that was nice. We layed in the lazy river and went down some slides. Surpringly the lamest looking slide turned out to be the best one. :) We went down it like three times. Maybe two, I can't remember hahah. But it turned out to be really really fun. :)


The next big event was Kyle's 19th Birthday. Wooooooo! Hahha finally we're the same age. ;) He invited me up to his cabin with his whole family. We rode 4-wheelers, went on a hike, played with all of his little cousins, played ticket to ride, and I shot my first ever gun. I'm so glad he let me go with him, it was a great time. I always feel bad going with his family though because I am SO not used to that much energy. I was exhausted by the end of the night and I feel like they think i'm hating life but that's definitely not the case. I'm just lazy on the daily and they are anything but that. :) It was really cute, his grandma and his aunt Tracy made him a pinata because he wanted one. They used an Einstein Bagel's box and his cousins drew him happy birthday pictures which they glued to the side of the box. It was so adorable. Kyle kept the box to hang in his room. It was very sweet of them. :) After we got back we came to my house to celebrate his brithday with everyone else in our house. We had sooo much fun. I felt bad because Kyle had to work so early the next morning and he stayed up so late but I really hope he had the best birthday ever.


Okay I really promise I'm almost done!
The other night we went to Gay Night at the club. Things got a little out of control. We danced in the cages, and on stage, and just everywhere. Hahhaha I had seriously the best time in the whole world. Oh my gosh it was so fun. Here are all the people that went: Adri, Jamey, Amanda (Adri's cousin), Brianne, Lauryn, Christian, and Graham. I don't know how they all felt about it, but I loved it and will definitely be going again. :)

And lastttt but not least yesterday Kyle and Daniel came over! Daniel wasn't that impressed with our marvelous house but I guess you can't please them all. Haha jk I mean he liked it but just not as much as I was hoping. Kyle left with Daniel for a while and came back to my house once Daniel had to leave. Kyle decided that he wanted to break in the grill I got him for his birthday and when he got back we went to the store for a propane tank and a bunch of grilling food. Later that might Steve, Erin, Christian, Brianne, Kyle and I all had the barbeque that Kyle made us. Which was delicious by the way. Mmm. :) After that we rode the trax down to the Arts Festival which ended up being $10 to get in! It was expensive but they had really cool things there so it ended up being worth it. :) And then we came back to the house and Adri and Jamey came over and they brought their dogs Frankie and Tolbert. They're really the cutest dogs. :) All and all the summer is turning out to be my best one yet. :) Can't wait for what else is in store!
