Tulip Festival

Today was so much fun! My good friend Alice Abrams called me up and asked if I wanted to go to the Tulip Festival with her out at Thanksgiving Point!  I am so glad she did because it was beautiful! I took alot of pictures to share! I brought my little digital camera, but Alice brought her really nice canon camera and took pictures too so I will have to get them from her and post them later!

Thanks for the good time Alice!

Today is one of my very very best friends birthday. COURTNEY SHAEFFER! She is 18 and I am so happy for her!

 It is also my sister ANDREAS BIRTHDAY TODAY!!

I had a good day! I didn't go to school (again) haha.  For Courtney's Birthday we suprised her and took her up to milcreek canyon for campfire where alot of our friends were waiting for us!

We told her mom a few days ago what our plan was.  Courtney didn't know though.  We told alot of people to meet at my house at 7 o'clock and then we would go get Courtney and meet them up the canyon.  Alot of people showed up and then me, Taylor, Tessa, and Carly went and suprised Court!  She was so suprised! Then we blindfolded her and took her to milcreek! She had no idea where we were going! It was so fun! Then we walked her to the site and everyone started singing Happy Birthday and she took off the blindfold, she was so suprised!

Yesterday

Yesterday I did not go to school.  I cleaned my car, added music to my blog, and then I got ready for the day.  Later, I went to a dessert shop called "The Sweet Tooth Fairy" to get some cake pops for my sister. It is her birthday today! I visit her dog Charlie almost every day while she is at work, so yesterday while she was at work I left a sign with the cake bites on her counter to suprise her when she got home!

After that, I went to the temple for our mutual activity.  It was alot of fun!

Before we left, we found this bus in the church parking lot for the blood drive.  We were very amused by the kids on the bus, especially this guy...

On our way home from the temple, my sister Andrea called and said I needed to come home because I had been asked to prom!  Me and a lot of the young women drove to my house as quick as we could, including one of the leaders, Emily Baker.  We were so excited to see who asked me! 

When we got to my house, we found diapers EVERYWHERE! All over my lawn! Not just ordinary baby diapers, full grown ADULT diapers! haha it was so funny! There was a poster on my porch that said "I would feel like CRAP if you didn't go to Prom with me!"  It was so awesome! His name was hidden in one of the diapers! It was Jason Hoggard! I am so excited!
