Camping and Crablegs

So for Memorial Day Weekend Jake and I went to Marysville, UT with Janell and Burk and camped. It was so nice and warm. The boys fished and Janell and I just kinda hung out and we found this fun little antique shop. I bought a little gold watch for $3.00. haha. I love it though. It's my souvenir from the weekend. We played this washer throwing game that we found at wal-mart like twenty times, but it is seriously like the most fun game. Then that night we went to this gas station that has been turned into a "restaurant". Jake and I had been there a year ago with his brother and some of their friends so that's why we decided to go back. They have unlimited crab legs and these giant servings of prime rib for pretty cheap and it is amaaaaaazing! It looks like the most white trash place ever, but I kid you not, it is sooooo good. I think I literally ate 25 crab legs (on top of everything else they give you). Ask Jake.

Anyway, then on Sunday, Janell and Burke had to head back, but Taylor and Devo wanted to come camping, so we headed back to Jake's family's house in Holden. They met us there, but the weather started getting bad and it was freezing! So...we ended up just having a fire and cooked hot dogs and smores there. It was really fun actually, but I don't have any pictures from it. Hopefully we'll get a good camping trip planned with all of our friends soon!

All of the Lights

So this weekend, a bunch of us went to...wait for it....Allure. Yeah, we did.

Haha, it was actually pretty fun. They have really good music, and how can you not love the light up dance floor? Not to mention, amaaaaazing people watching. I highly recommend it for that reason alone. Also, they have tons of screens which you can watch music videos on. I rarely see music videos anymore unless someone tells me to watch it or I look the song up on youtube for some reason. I swear I just stared at the screens or the crazy people dancing around me all night. Very interesting. Ha. Good times.

Jake's Birthday

Last weekend I had a birthday party for Jake because he is in Boston this weekend and will be gone for his actual birthday. He is turning 30! Old man! JK! Anyway, we went to eat and then out for some dancing and fun in Salt Lake. A bunch of our friends came and it was a pretty fun time. If you didn't come you missed out! :) Thanks to everyone that came!

Kale's Birthday

Tuesday we went to Airbourne Jump Arena for Kale's Birthday. It was perfect because they have a whole section for little kids and then they have a huge area for older people. They have a dodgeball jump court that was sooo fun. Jake and the guys were dripping sweat when they were done. Janell, Kellie, and I weren't quite that into it.

We had pizza and I got Kale a "Woody and Buzz" cake. Then he opened all his presents. I'm pretty sure he had a pretty fun 4th birthday. Such a cute kid. Love that little guy. He was smiling the whole way up in the car and didn't want to go home. :)

Happy Birthday Kale Boy!

Girls Night Out

Last weekend, Janell and I attended an organized "Girls Night Out" at Pierpont Place up in Salt Lake. It was actually really fun. They had food, dancing, a raffle, and then things like manicures, pedicures, henna, feather extensions, etc. Janell and I both won things and then just hung out with all these random people all night. There were quite a few "older" women having the time of their lives on the dance floor. (I wish I had video).

However, I got into a conversation with one lady who kept telling me how beautiful we were and not to throw it away, but she did give me some advice that I thought about for a while. She was telling me to enjoy my youth and not waste it etc, but the thing that stuck out to me was when she said if she could tell me anything it was, to "Be Choosey". I feel like this probably is a very good thing to remember. I guess it just made me think a lot lately because I am making some big decisions about school and dating and etc. I feel like this is the time in my life where it is important for me to be choosey more than any other time, because this is the time in my life where I can be a little bit selfish and make sure that I get the things that I need for me. I just want to be happy and have a good life :)

I always recommend a good girls night out.

Cara's Birthday

A bunch of us went out to Happy Sumo for Cara's birthday dinner! It's always fun to get together with the girls. (and Todd) Plus I love me some sushi!

Happy Birthday Cara!

Cinco de Mayo!

One of my favorite holidays...why? because I love Mexican food, guacamole, parties for basically no reason, and holidays where you don't have to worry about presents! haha!

Brittney, her friend Kristin, and I went to La Casita (super yummy Mexican restaurant in Springville) for dinner and then over to her friends for a little fiesta.

Don't worry that apparently I have a baby here...?

"underwear party"

So my friend Brooke got married two weeks ago, and is having her reception in Utah this weekend. She is having a bridal shower with her sister-in-laws this weekend also, but they informed her that they just don't do "those kind of parties"...meaning where you get underwear and etc as gifts...SO...we decided to have our own little shower and go to dinner at Art City Trolley in Springville. And WE DO do those kinds of parties. :)

Congrats Brookie!

Janell and Burk's Wedding

This weekend I went to the wedding of two of my friends, Janell and Burk. It was at Pierpont Place in Salt Lake City. It was so fun and really pretty. Here are a bunch of pictures so you can see for yourself!
