Thank you Cassidy. MEXICO!

THANK YOU CASSIDY! For reminding me and reminding me to blog. You are an amazing friend, fellow blogger, and inspiration to me. Well, now that we've got that settled, I desperately need to blog! But, I keep procrastinating an pushing it off until.. TODAY! I realized that the entry is only going to get longer and less detailed if I do not blog. SO. First item of business. SPRING BREAK.
MEXICOO 2010 BABY!

It was amazing. I went with my friends Camille Shreeve, and Rebecca Porter, whom I absolutely love. It was so fun! So we drove up Sunday night.. which was an interesting drive... I kept waking up to Rebecca's headlight beaming in my face! Then the following morning, we arose and started off the day with good old sunscreen lathering and a day filled with sun. We took the rhino and down to the Mayan Palace, and we layed out for a while. There were some creepers staring at us literally the whole time and we would just like wave to them and laugh. hahaha it was great. BUT THEN. We are lying there and all of the sudden.. SPLAAASH! This old man does this huge cannon ball in the frigid icy water next to me. Hahaha I was like waaah! But, I was cracking up. But then, he kept going. He did it like 5 times! And then the last time he was just laughing at me and I was like What the heck man?! But kay. This is getting a little too detailed. My trip is going to take you like 5 years to read! Well so then, randomly out of the blue comes this lady's voice on the intercom saying "heeey everybody! isss happy hour!! woot woot!" so then like all these drunk people starting cheering and like everyone surrounded the pool and she was like "put your right hand in the air.. woot woot! left hand in the air... woot woot! HAAAPPY HOUR!" hahah we were all like dying of laughter. So when it became time to return  back to the beach house for dinner, we were turning our towels in and the towel guy invited us to come to this beach party that was welcome to anyone and any family.annnd we wanted to go soo bad, but none of the adults would let us. haha we kind of got made fun of the rest of the trip because we were so naive. Well so we ate dinner next door at the Rolley's beach house, and that is where we met everyone. That is just about the time that Tyler and Brent rolled in. Brent and Cami share a beach house, well its just like cut in half, and I had met Tyler before, so I kind of knew him, but that was when I met Brent. We all hung out together that night and played football and stuff. Then we star gazed--little did we know that was going to become tradition--because the stars down there are amazing!

Tuesday was filled with pleasurable sun, the beach, the pool, and the first time we went into town.
We went to this place called Luca's (I think) and it was soo good! Then when we got home, we heard Kenna squeal as she said, "Who is that?!" To our suprise, we looked at the back to see 3 boys with their faces pressed against the window. As we looked more intimately, the faces became recognizable. It was Hunter Sorenson, Mckay Free and Jake Larson. Hahah we laughed and then we went outside to find a bunch of people that came to visit. We got out the marshmellows, graham crackers and chocolate and made smores as we played games. Then after everyone left, we again, traditionally, star gazed as we would say bizarre/slap happy/half asleep things. Haha it was just great; yet, I always seemed to miss the shooting stars...


The next day came quickly as we slept in late and arose with ease. We ate breakfast and immediately sprinted to the beach. We messed around when swiftly, we were asked if we would like to jet ski. YES!! I had never jet skied before, so I was a bit nervous, especially since it was in the ocean. But Tyler and Brent went on one, and then Cami, Becca and I were on another. Cami drove first; I was petrified but loving every second of it while I sat in the middle.We raced and splashed around Tyler and Brent, and then made a bold move. haha we jumped in the water! It felt so good but the second I jumped in, I realized everything that happened to live in the same waters that my feet were kicking in and immediately launched myself back onto the jet ski screaming with laughter. We then got back on the jet ski, and it was my turn to drive. I revved up the engine and took off bolting with a rush of adventure spilling through me. Then, as Becca drove next, I was on the back holding on for dear life. hahaha I love Becca to death, but she is an adventurous one! But Becca's driving was nothing to what I was about to experience. Cami felt a little bit sea sick, so Tyler and Becca took her back in while they told me to hop on Brent's. HOLY CRAP! He took off twisting and turning, hitting waves and peeling out and I just screamed the whole time! Hahah but I was cracking up at the same time. There were a few times I swear I saw my life flash before my eyes. Then when Tyler and Becca returned, Becca and I took control and drove. We raced and said hi to random people and it was so fun!! And Brent taught me how to peel out without flipping it and splash them. One of my favorite memories for sure!!

After we came back in, we got Cami who was feeling a great deal better, we showered, and decided to take the rhino back out. OHHH goodness. THE RHINO! Goood times. We pretended like we were on a safari and we took turns being the chauffer while the other two woud sit in the back for the ride. It was crazzy! We were being like insane. Hahah then this little boy wanted to ride and half way through, we stopped to tell him about a place by where we were, and he got out. We freaked him out wayyy to much! Haha we had to like bribe him to make him get back in so we could at least drive him home so he wasn't wandering around helplessly in the middle of the desert. Then we went to get Tyler and Brent. We told them they were in for a suprise, and made them sit in the back--the most bumpy place to sit. We took them all around and talked in our crazy accents as we showed them all of the animals, people, and places we had discovered. Theeey were dying. Hahaha they were so mad. They wanted to get out so bad! Hahaha it was hilarious because they thought we were crazy... which we're not of course. Then we ran into the middle of the ocean with our clothes on, and I stepped on a crab. It scared the heck outta me! After that we ate dinner and Cami, Tyler, Brent and I stayed up til about 3 talking about random things. Becca on the other hand.. was asleep.

We awoke to find Becca not really there; only to find out she was sick. Nooo! So she slept most of the day, and Cami and I ran around and rode the rhino around. We watched America's Next Top Model and America's Best Dance crew; then we decided to make our own dance crew called CE. Hahaha that afternoon, Becca awoke and announced she was feeling muuch better. So we all showered, and got ready to go into town! We ate at this fish place, and we shopped around quite a bit. It was kind of scary though because there were all these clubs and people partying and stuff all around us. You could just see like the evils of the world all in that one spot. But we took lots of pictures, walked around, and then headed back to the beach house.

AHHH the last night. Every night we kept saying we were going to take the rhino out at night, but this night we actually did because it was the last night! It was so amusing riding around at night, and flying off of the jumps and stuff. We visited this scary old abandoned house and played "Would you rather". Haha it was splendid! Then we went to Brent's and his little sister and her friend were doing crazy make up. So Becca and I decided to join in! Haha yaaay! Then we just hung out and messed around til the late hours. woooh! I love Mexico!!

The next morning we cleaned up, got a little bit more tan, and we departed back into the country. Yay I even made it across the border despite my super tanness and dark features! hahah sarcasm... Well so that was my adventure. Like it?

I saw The Last Song at midnight!! Ahhhh it was just okay the first time I saw it, but then I saw it again and I thought it was better! I love that book though! I finished it in Mexico; for all of you who have not read the book, I HIGHLY recommend it! I did some crazy stuff this weekend, and I took loads of pictures with my friend Aly, and my brother and his friends. Hahah it was cool. OH!! And I went to Dennys (left) at like midnight.. its so funny! The workers are hilarious! Conference was amazing, I honestly can say that I love conference. It brings such a good spirit into the home! Easter was also great, I was incredibly fortunate to receive loads of candy, and a never ending day of family, friends, food, and joy. I am so grateful for Christ and His atoning sacrifice for all of us!

My parents leave this FRIDAY to go and pick up my brother from his mission in BRAZIL! AHHH! IM ECSTATIC! Thursday I go and see Michael Buble liiive in concert! Man I love that man. Aims are tomorrow and we just finished our huge project in English! haha SOOO much is going on and there is so many exciting things happening! As I say in Spanish, life is good, life is great, boyyy I love to conjugate. Hahaha well everything has just been swell, sorry I have not written in a while, but things obviously have been hectic; its the end of the school year syndrome.

Hahaha I am so weird. WELLL anyways..
