MY BIRTHDAY!!

My birthday this year was pretty much awesome! The best part about it all was the fact that I didn’t have to do a thing! I knew I had to work; so there would be no point in me trying to plan something. So, I decided to just keep it simple.
I was wrong about simple; my friends are awesome, and were ahead in the game. It started this last Saturday!
Saturday morning I woke up to Jess W, Amy, and Ben throwing a blanket on my head, and dragging me out of bed! Oh, and let me tell you, I looked awesome! I had done my hair in curls the day before; so when I woke up it was in all directions! I was hott!
After getting kinda decent we all went to Denny’s for breakfast. As I was finishing my food I was told that the fun was not over. They handed me my swim suit, and told me we were leaving the valley. We climbed into the car, and I was “blind folded” (aka “keep the towel on your head, you can’t know where we are going”).
It didn’t take long to figure out that we were headed up the canyon though. When I figured out where we were I was allowed to take off the towel.


Soon enough I knew the plan; we were going tubing down the Provo River!!! HA HA ha oh my goodness, it was so much fun. We rode up in this old school bus, and started off down the river just below the dam! It was about a two hour run, and it was beautiful! I would recommend this to EVERYONE!!
Well, that was all for Saturday! So now, Tuesday, my actual birthday I had to work; so I didn’t really plan anything. I had a wonderful massage in the morning, but that was all I had planned for me.
At work everyone sang to me! Even better, they sang Alishia Lou! Oh, and mom of course had to explain to them the story about the day I was born! :)
That night Becky had seven layer dip made up for me, and made me a wonderful dessert. It’s that brownie, marshmallow cream, peanut butter, rice crispy treat thing! I don’t know what it’s called but it was delicious! After we ate dinner the Jenkins, Mom, and Dad gave me very nice presents! It was a ton of fun! The family was great!
After I spent time with the family I made plans to hang out with Jess W, and Amy! Too bad they took FOREVER. Well, it was all good, because when they actually showed up they had an awesome cake, ice cream, pizza, and chips waiting at the pool for me! The cake was awesome; it had my name written on it and had an Ariel figurine on the top! They were awesome! And they surprised me again, and had Mckell come too!


As we were sitting at the pool everyone was acting really weird, and I knew someone was going to come for a surprise. They told me that our other friends wanted to come, but couldn’t. So, when Amy was acting all funny I was expecting Ben to pop out of the bush. It was even better! My old roommate Melissa and her friend walked around the corner and surprised me! I was so shocked! I yelled and gave her hug! I was pretty excited. I haven’t seen her at all this summer!

I had all these awesome people around me to celebrate my birthday! My other friends couldn’t come, but I still had a great time! They were all at my house until about 1:00! Oh it was awesome! YAY! Woot!!




PS..I have pictures of Family stuff too but they are on Becky's camera, and I didn't get a picture of Mckell with us :(

FIESTA DAYS



Fiesta Days is one of the coolest things that Spanish Fork does. This last Monday night I went with a bunch of my friends! We spent the evening there, and had a blast!
As I went to the carnival I really understood why Spanish Fork has the great reputation of “Hicks” Agh! The weird people really come out to those things. It wasn’t a group of cowboys. Its was full on hicks! I saw little boys’ heads cut real short with the long mow-hawk mullet things going on. It was just sad. I looked around and saw a bunch of people I hadn't seen for years. They had all dropped out!
All the same, we had a ton of fun! Here are some pictures.

And PS. I updated my photography site!

Good ol' Buddies

As many of you know this last weekend really has not been the best of weekends for me! So, two of my very best friends came up to my house! They were great, and tried to keep me happy through out the day! We went swimming, and then went to Chili's for dinner! They even had the waitress come out and they sang happy birthday to me! We all shared a shot of Chocolate! Oh, that was good!! And of course we are dumb, and had to take pictures of the event! ha ha here are just a few!
