Not Quite California...

A couple of my roommates and I were so stoked for Spring Break to arrive, especially since we had been forming wild dreams of a fun-filled trip to California. We'd even begun making the plans for it all, but we soon realized that it was not going to happen for many reasons. So instead of Sea World and sunshine we decided to have an extended sleepover. Our adventures began in Honeyville, which is where my roommate Jessica is from. We actually first went to our really good friend Shawn's farewell Sunday morning, which was followed by so much delicious food at his house. Shawn is going to the Stockholm, Sweden mission which is also where our friend Todd (in our ward) served a year or so ago. We brought Todd along with us to Shawn's house afterward and we were worried that he would feel awkward since he was probably the oldest friend there by at least three years, but to our surprise he was actually the life of the party! He entertained us with all of his crazy stories for quite some time. I haven't laughed that hard in awhile. Ha ha oh man it was funny!

That night at Jessica's house we entertained ourselves with activities such as feeding her horses, makeovers, and playing with our new little friend Timmy (her dog). He was such a silly dog! He would climb up on our lap and just stare at us and then once we looked away he would attack us and lick our faces.

This is a little trick of his that they call "sitting pretty." It was so cute!

Caught in the act... ha ha

The next day we drove down to Jenni's house in Brigham City. We spent most of that night playing at Shawn's house for the last time for two years! We watched Madagascar 2 which is pretty funny! I thought it was going to be dumb because that's usually how sequels of movies are but I actually really liked this one! We entertained ourselves by playing Guitar Hero World Tour for many hours... his poor parents were so nice to put up with our noise while trying to sleep.

Tuesday morning, after eating at the famous Maddox in Perry that I've been hearing so much about (yummy), we drove down to my house in good old Woods Cross. We played more guitar hero and laughed all night just enjoying being silly girls. The rest of my spring break was mostly just relaxing. I worked a couple days which was actually really fun and played with my cute little family. They are so funny! We always have many good laughs together and my niece Lexie is such a crack up! She loves to show off and make us laugh.

Well now it's back to school... but hey at least the weather is being friendly. I have seriously been LOVING this warmth and sunshine (even though its only in the 50's ha ha)! Yesterday we sat out on the Quad for hours studying... well at least attempting too. I even got a little little bit of a sunburn ha ha. It was just glorious!

Hey, seeing your wonderful family and adorable niece beats California any day, right?! :) I was talking to Mom this morning about how your school year ends next month and you'll be moving home for the summer. I am totally shocked that you are almost done with your freshman year. I feel old. I swear the older you get the faster time goes by.
