Today, the remainder of us ladies went to Deer Creek Reservoir with Lauren's family! :D

Chillin on the Trampoline thing with Lauren, Hannah, Aspen, and me with a bag of BBQ Potato chips! Aww yeah!

Tubing with Amanda, Lauren and Aspen:

Me, Brooke and Maggie:

It was a blast! And I got a nice slight tan before going back to school :)

Today I received my answer for BYU Jerusalem! Here it is:

And unfortunately, it was a letter of denial. The letter goes as follows: (Quote) "Unfortunatly [for us], your application was one of those we could not accommodate [due to the sheer awesomeness of your presence]... I am sorry [for us] that you will not be attending at this time [because we are not prepared to accommodate your amazingness] but hope you will consider reapplying in the future [because we desperately want you to grace us with your sheer awesomeness]" (Unquote)

So I guess I'll just have to apply again!

On the bright side, I was wearing an awesome nail polish shade ;) Just look at that lovely minty color!

"Mawwaige. Mawwage is what bwings us togethah today...."

Waiting for the lovely couple outside the temple! Me, Lauren, Jessica, Aspen, Maggie, Amanda, and the bridesmaids, Kelsi and Kelsey :)

Aaron and Rylie McBride!! :D So cute

I loved her dress :)

I did Kelsi's hair for her and actually think it looks pretty cool! Jessica agrees

Enjoying Rocky Mountain Chocolate Co Chocolate Covered Apples! :D

Delicious dark chocolate rocky road cluster :)

We had lunch at Zupas. I was pretty excited about my Tomato Soup!

At the reception, with our little cups of rice preparing to toss on the couple as they head out on their honeymoon! Maggie, Amanda, Aspen, Alyssa, Jessica, and Lauren
(PS Note for Future Self: Aspen caught the bride's bouquet... you know what that means!)

My hair:

I went to WalMart at midnight to buy Hunger Games on DVD just as it came out. I was somewhat happy about it....

Time to go home and watch it!

INVASION!!! Rylie is getting married tomorrow! So I invited some ladies from the dorms to stay the weekend with me to be part of Rylie's wedding. It was a blast!!

We all had dinner at my house: Rylie (the McBRIDE haha :)), Kelsi, Kelsey, Jessica, Amanda, Lauren, and Aspen! :)

They were all excited about the hot tub: Lauren, Kelsi, Amanda, Jessica, Maggie and Aspen

We walked to Top It to get frozen yogurt (which closed exactly a minute before we got there, thank you very much). This is Jessica riding the long-board because she was having issues with her ankle:

It was so fun to see and catch up with these ladies! It's been far too long :)

My Navy Humanitarian Trip Application! Ah! Fingers crossed :)

Eli and I hung out today. I had him bring over one of his sister's nail polish colors and painted my finger nails. He got bored so he painted my toes for the heck of it- he did a lovely job :)

Guess what I found today!! Vans... Zebra print... in my size (last pair!).... on Sale for $30!! Awesome :) I think I'll end up keeping them!

Started packing and organizing today! Mom is really good at coupon shopping and sale hunting and such, so we have tons of extra toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, etc. As a poor college student, I definitely opted for some of that! So here is all of that stuff organized into boxes with a list reminding me what I have so I know I won't ever need to buy it :)

Today I spoke in Sacrament meeting on the Book of Mormon being the keystone of our religion! It was great, I absolutely loved speaking on it :) Nana and Papa came and watched me today

This is Emily, Becca, Heiney, Eli, James and I :) I have loved meeting them- they are great friends and I'm sad to leave!!

By the end of the day, I felt like this little guy (but instead of that, it'd more like "Finally, it's Saturday night!) It was a 60 hour work week, plus I had to fill out and turn in my Passport application, and write a talk for Sacrament Meeting, and I was utterly exhausted. But... I survived!! :)

I've been having fun doing my hair lately, if you haven't noticed :P I've been working so much this week that I don't have a ton else going on.

Did my hair really awesome for work today:

Letter from Bolivia!! :D

I also got news today that I passed both my Written AND Skills CNA Tests, so I am an officially certified CNA! :D

Walgreens gave me 2 Passport pics when I only needed one :P Here's a picture of the second one.

It has been a hectic day, and it will be a ridiculously busy week!

For my lunch break today (which was only supposed to be a half hour) I went to turn in my Passport application. But there was a line, and then I didn't have the proper form of payment :P so I had to drive all the way across the county to my Bank, pick up a check, run it back, pay the US Passport people, then go back to work. It took an hour and a half :P Crazy.
