Adventurous week!

Man...I should be in bed, from now on I will not post this late...
I got the chance to go to Blanding, Utah this week with my good college buddy Amber! ^_^ We got to see our dearest friend Anita! We were coming down to help with a photo shoot. Her friend Kara who is the photographer and I believe creator of Illuminated moments (You should check out her blog or look them up on facebook!) was having a party shoot. A party shoot is where the model comes and they bring something crazy or extreme and we do hair and make up to go with it. It was so much fun. I got to help with some of the hair, learning how to curl hair better from Anita too!
But, on the way down I was so paranoid that I would take a wrong turn and end up in Wyoming because I have never driven down south this far before, and to a place I am unfamiliar with. Amber and I made it there safely after what seemed longer than 5 hours....it was still a lot of fun, we love to laugh. (Who doesn't?)
When I have more time I will post the amazing photo Kara took of me from my turn in the photo shoot. Everyone looked so fantastic!! I can't wait to do it again.

On another note! I got to play some Frisbee with my ward! Yay! I hardly ever get the chance to do things with my ward, especially when I was in Ephraim, but I am determined to change that! Besides that, I got to go to my Dad's last concert tonight, he has sung with the Wasatch Chorale for 20 years. It was a really good concert and I am very glad I was able to go with my mom and sister. My dad was laid off from his job earlier this week, so things around here will be a little different but the same. Its just going to be a test my family will go though, and we will make it because the Lord will always provide a way for those who have faith. :)

Well...I have a farewell to get to tomorrow and my own ward to attend, with an alert mind. :D
Ciao

I'm 19 today!! Woot!

Well, I woke up a little early, and my mom brought me breakfast in bed. :) Then I finished watching Sense and Sensability, which I had started watching yesterday. I then went to Intistitute with my friends Tom and Kyle, it was really good. I have never had my eye water so much during a lesson, but I understand a little better of the pre-mortal life and life afterwards. And that is going to be so amazing, its something I look forward to. Then I went to lunch at Subway with Tom and Kyle. Learned how to play some WOW (World of Warcraft) card game they have been playing. Then a friend of mine from college dropped by and gave me a present he made. I thought it was very nice of him to take the time to create something for me. And then I replied to my friends birthday comments to me on facebook and decided to blog about my day. :)
Well...I am going to have a party with my family tonight so it should be really good. I'm excited. If I get the chance I will blog after I come back from Blanding this weekend. Woot!
Peace out!
