okay so tonight couldn't have been a more perfect ending to a more perfect long weekend! so to start the day off i didn't get out of bed until about 1ish. then when i did i took the longest shower ever..and contemplated all of my life decisions (doesn't everyone do that?) i love it, cause i always do that.  but after the life decision making i just chilled watched some tv ate some food it was a pretty chill afternoon.  then Sarah texts me and we are gonna hang out. so i get ready, make my self look publicly acceptable and left. i picked sarbear up and we headed to the dollar store to get kazoos cause sarbear loves them cause they are hours of entertainment.. so we got those got back in the car.. HELLO they DON'T work. Welcome to the dollar store, you get what you pay for. but its okay cause i got plastic bubbles.  but we couldn't play with them yet cause we were meeting Ryan Stephenson at u-swirl. we got there and had a lovely little chat and ryan walks and i...

okay so it was black friday today. obviously. but i kinda gave in and went this year cause my mom wanted to go. so thursday night i went to Walmart and K-mart with her.. (no crazy fights, punching, elbowing, etc.) it was pretty mellow just crazy busy! we got some good stuff! :) then we came home at 12:30ish cause my brother was sick and called..i was super sad i wanted to go to the mall and see the madness there (i didn't really care to shop as much as see the crazy madness of weird utah people) but we got home and i didn't fall asleep till 2-2:30ish. then i woke up at 10:30 to get ready for brunch at noon with Anna, Ashleigh and Sarah. it was so super fun here are some pictures! :) brunch at IHOP with my girls after brunch Sarbear had to go to to Tennis so she left then Anna Ashleigh and I went to the mall.. we got some good deals at Head Over Heels, a lovely hand treatment at Bodacious Bath and Body, lovely smells at Bath and Body Works, then anna had to leave so as...

Last night was great!! We were having a girls night wat Candace's (with Anna, Mikail, Ashleigh, Candace, Jenny, Amber, Brinley, Abbie) we were just chillin there watching elf when we hear a noise. It was one of the pool sticks fell. So Anna and I went to go see what it was Anna saw Powell under the table so we were talking to him. But we figured he wasn't alone so we went out there to find Ryan. So we went out to find him and Trey and Him popped out and I never get scared. Ask Ally because she tried to scare me when I got to her house. It didn't work!! ;) but they popped out and totally scared me! Even though I knew they would be out there I still got scared. But Anna freaked too so it was totally okay! Hahah  then we found out the whole story and how they got in the house was super sketchy.  So we decided that these seniors weren't getting off the hook on this prank they played.
