Summer Lovin

Anyone currently hating their summer needs to come live with me and my friends for a week...then you will  love your summer. Everyday brings something great here at Dixie Red Sands in St George, Utah. I didn't get a chance to blog last week so let's do a quick recap of last week (June 11th-17th) Monday for FHE we had our first activity with the Buena-Vista ward. It was bittersweet, I loved getting to know new people but I missed the regulars I usually see at FHE. Tuesday was my sweet roommate Randi's birthday; I love birthdays and was thrilled to plan hers. With all of us working it was really difficult to make every minute special for her. The real party started when she got off work-Holly decorated her door for when she came home, our stairs were decorated and we had a reserved parking stall for her! Nick took her to dinner then we took her to Fiesta Fun to do a couple rounds of go-karts. We brought her home for a Dairy Queen ice-cream cake and surprised her with sparklers!! It was the best! 

Friday after work Hol and I hit the road for Tooele, I was ecstatic and could not wait to go home and see my family! Friday we just watched a movie and went to bed, Saturday we hung out, cooked, played and just had a freaking great time!! My dad recently made a fire pit in our back yard-awesome I know-so I forced him to make us a fire so we could have smores and roasted star-bursts. It was so much fun and I loved every minute of it! Sunday we went to my grandparents house for a BBQ and we also talked about our Cruise in January...that's right folks this girl is going on a cruise. I am so so so excited and wish it was tomorrow! 

My cute parents!

That is last week now for this week! Monday for FHE we had a BBQ and played a get to know ya game, there are a lot of new faces and names that I need to remember. Tuesday Aubrey had a softball game and then we went to the Tuacahn to see Hairspray! It was so good and if you have a chance you should go, I also can't wait to see Aladdin it's going to be epic! 

The remainder of the week was spent working, going to the gym (Rand and I did so good this week), going to institute-we talked about the Atonement it was so very good, and just hanging out. Friday I deep cleaned my apartment and went through a ton of old papers. Saturday Hol, Tiana and I hung out, went to the Temple, watched lots of TV, and ended the night watching Man on a Ledge which is so good if you haven't seen it you should. Today was good it was the first Sunday in the new ward and it wasn't bad at all. The college building is not my favorite but I can handle it. We even had the opportunity to go back to the morningside ward-my beautiful sister sang in their sacrament meeting. It was absolutely amazing!! It brought me to tears and I am just so proud of her and want her to know that! I love you all and hope you have a great week!
