Camping & Such!

This last week has been pretty fun! Yes, I finally got out of my house and I have been enjoying summer for a bit! One of my highlights of the week is that one of my best friends Skylar has come to visit! We have been friends since seventh or eighth grade!?! We haven't seen each other for six years! I must admit that it has been so fun to play catch up!! I went into visit her on Sunday.. Eric and Sara also went! We went to the gateway for a bit then just sat at the hotel room and caught up! Then Sky and I decided to go exploring downtown SLC.. We decided that we are country girls and prefer to stay that way but it was still way fun to explore the city! Well of all places we found Smith's MarketPlace and can I just say that is one of the coolest stores ever! It has elevators and escalators.. what grocery store has those! Plus... It was like a one stop shopping area! It had like a Target..Wal*Mart..Home Depot.. and Kohls... in like one store! We were definitely amazed! I found some cute house decorations!! Then we went to Wendy’s and just talked for hours haha I love reminiscing with my old friends.. I think its one of my favorite past times! I wish she still lived out here.. I have missed her so much! We see eye to eye on so many things! I also learned some great lingo they love to say in Virginia! My favorite one is it's bricks up in here! Which is basically saying its cool..or awesome up in here! haha They also say holtacaw (sound it out for pronunciation?) for just kidding... that is "J" and "K" in Spanish! Also Ya'll is very big around there :) Tonight we went to the drive in and watched Eclipse.. we put our own dialogue on the movie which was hilarious..But if I tell you guys what it was we would probably make everybody mad..so I'll keep that to myself! Haha




Another highlight of my week was I went semi-camping with my parents! We decided that since we weren't going on our normal vacation.. We would go to bear lake riding! It’s very beautiful up there and the riding was way fun! My parents told me too ride in front of them... so there for let’s just say they ended up eating my dust!... literally! They were so dirty... it was so funny! I offered for them to go ahead but they wouldn't so there for I barely end up dirty! It was great to get to spend some time with my parents before I go back to school! Which may be moved back a week? :( I know sad... but I'm still not positive so I'll keep you guys updated! Until my next adventure...Xoxo Whit!

4th of July Weekend!

So I would have to say that this weekend was the most fun yet! It was nice to have a fun weekend for once.. I'm going pretty insane with my boredom! haha but anyways back to my weekend.. Friday-- I spent the day laying around and watching movies.. It was quite nice! haha One of the movies I watched was Shall we dance.. that is probably one of my favorite movies! Well it put me in a good mood so I ended up dancing around in my underwear while i got ready for the day! It was quite fun... I even made Cassie my dance partner! :) That night I went and hung out with Adam, Angel, and Jake! They took us girlies out for ice cream.. yum! Then we went and watched She's out of my league at Jake's house! It was such a fun night! They crack me up! :)

Saturday-- Well my original plan was to get up early and go watch the parade.. sadly that didn't work out! I slept through it! :( My mom didn't want to go.. there for I had no one to wake me up! I was so bummed out... but then my cousins Kim and Shauna invited me to go to lunch with them! That was fun as always! Then it was time for the Stadium of Fire! Which was so awesome and a ton of fun! I got to see Carrie Underwood perform and let me tell ya she is fantastic! I think she sounds even better live! After that we watched the fireworks.. I forgot how much I loved fireworks! They are so beautiful! So I decided I'm going to make sure I go to at least one firework show every forth of July!



Sunday-- My family and I decided to go up in the canyon and have a fire! That was also quite fun.. I love sitting by fires Its so much fun! Then I went and hung out with Sam! We played with sparklers and had a pop it war! It was super fun!

Other than this weekend I have just been hanging out and getting ready to move back to St. George! I can't believe that I only have twenty-five days left... I'm so excited! This year I am going to be living with Alisha, Kassidy, Brie, and Carly! I don't know Brie or Carly yet but they seem like very fun girls and I think we are going to have a great year together! I'm also very excited that we are going to make our house so cute and homey! Well I'll update again soon! Xoxoxo Whit!
