FLORIDA!!!!

Days come where things happen and we lose privileges, but as an outcome some very fun memorable times come about and are enjoyable. My wonderful sir is having her birthday soon and is turning 23, but since she is getting one year older and wiser too, she is no longer allowed to use the flying benefits from my mom's work, Sky West. Due to this loss, a trip was planned as she wanted and her, my mom, and myself went to Florida. It was a very long red eye flight but it was also funny. The way to the airport I was being so funny and just spouting out randomness.

• Me: "You are no limo, you are a short bus...." (said towards Dani)
• "Heyy look over at the trash can, hahaha it's white trash!" (white man sleeping in the airport in front of the trash cans)

Once we got on the plane my mom took half an ambien, and I took one dramamine. We got loopy real quick and things were just funny. I hate planes so being mostly gone on dramamine helped me cope and I didn't really realize what was going on. The flight was only 3 1/2 hours long and we arrived in Florida at 6 AM. We were so tired and headed on our way. I ended up sleeping almost every time we drove somewhere since I had the back to myself with my blanket. We went to the temple and took pictures. Saw lizards mating, they should get a room! We hit up the clothing stores since I guess that is what girls do. We all got some really cute clothes for pretty cheap prices. We even got to watch my cousin play baseball, which he did so good! Made us all proud :) ha On Saturday we went to the funnest thing ever. It was in the Mossi Science and Industry building, but we went and did a rope course. It was 3 stories and each level seemed to get harder not to mention higher. Once we got to the top, I was ready to be done even tho I had a blast. Me and Dani laughed together and sweat together. We got to the beach about an hour later after we finished. We went to Siesta Key Beach. It is the most desired beach to go to. It was BEAUTIFUL. The sand was white, the water was warm, and we only had one towel with subway! ha It was a site for sure. We stayed in the water the whole time until the weather made us leave. That night we just mainly stayed in our hotel but went and got dinner at NY Pizza Grill. Not the best choice to go but it ended up being an adventure. We ordered pizza, and a salad. But as an extra we got 4 breadsticks. These breadsticks were about 4 inches tall and half an inch wide, funniest part.... they were BURNT! ha no wonder why they were free ha. On Sunday we flew home, we got to the airport at 6 AM and had to return the car, the plane didn't leave until after 10 so we sat around and played cards and laughed the whole time. We ended up being in an airport for 5 hours, being on a plane for 7 hours, changed planes 3 times, and had to drive an hour and half home. (Dani had to take another flight to get to salt lake) It was a torture. Sometimes being able to fly free has its negative side but heyy, who can beat randomly getting first class and being treated like a princess? Not me! The trip ended up being worth it and I loved being with my mom and sister!

My Life Changed Today....

Today is so interesting.... Chipper is now a 16 yr old sophomore! So weird! He drove to school today, granted I was with him but still. He hasn't gotten his license yet due to the teacher not ever being available but soon he will get it and he will drive the roads crazy! He will be getting the truck so I am officially beginning my goodbyes to my dear friend. My little brother isn't so little anymore. Granted he was never that little but still!

Another thing that is happening today is that I am moving out of the house into an apartment downtown. I will be right next to campus so I can walk. I will have 5 other roommates which one of them is my really good friend Bree Donovan. :) I am excited but also super nervous since I have never done this before and wont be able to just come on home and escape the crazies out there in the world! I love my family and not going to lie, this is hard for me to do. I almost don't like to talk bout it cuz I am afraid I will make them feel bad! I would just like them to know that they will always be in my heart no matter where I am located, whether it be down the street or in another continent! They are mine forever! Love them!

SUMMA TIME!

Summer was fun this year even tho I pretty much worked every single day.. but when I had my days off it was amazing and I had fun. I went cliff jumping out at Gunlock this year. SO much fun! You jump off of waterfalls and there are all different heights.

The highest one I jumped off of started out at 50 ft. Then as the water level

started to drop since we weren't having as much run off then the height changed to around 60 ft. Yes I know, ha I am crazy but it was crazy fun! I went on my birthday with friends and siblings. I couldn't have asked for a better day! By the way, I am 19 now. It is kind of weird to think of ha I still pause and have to remember how old I am when someone asks me. I'm getting old!

Another thing that happened this summer was my family and I went to Lagoon for a day. We flew up, did rides, then flew home, All in one day! It was actually pretty fun. some of the rides, I just wanted to cry on and get off but overall I enjoyed it. The power went out while we were there for about and hour and a half. It was so hot, we were all thirsty and bored. It finally came back on and we enjoyed our last few hours there! My parents made me actually get ready and put on make up, Lame I know! My dad's comment was, "your now 19, you can get hit on, we all know youll end up breaking their hearts." ha which is true but ends up being that right before we left some kid came up to me and asked for my number.... Stupid makeup ha he is younger then me so it is kind of awkward ha. But in the end of the day, I still don't know how to follow rules....
