happy birthday!

Today I turned 20 years old! Crazy huh? Well I've accomplished what everyone said I wouldn't be able to do. I broke my family tradition of being married at 19. I'm happy to say I'm single and no longer a teenager! My friends took me out for dinner to Si Senor and embarrassed me by singing Happy Birthday 3 or 4 times. Si Senor even got a sombrero for me to wear. It was a great birthday!
Thank you everyone!!

Feelin a little festive

Tonight was my institute Christmas party. Me and my friends decided to be a little festive and wear some awesome Christmas sweaters. Yeah they are pretty much awesome, everyone was jealous of them. Sorry mine is a little covered up but I'll get a better picture with the rest of my friends at my FHE Christmas party on Monday.
(Thanks mom & dad for spending $5 for my ugly sweater)This is my sweet gingerbread house that me and a couple of my friends made. I'm very happy to say it stood standing the whole night.

Merry Christmas

This is a picture of my ward's Christmas party nativity scene. In the right corner at the very top is my niece Lexi. She had the only speaking part of the night and did a great job. The thing is my sister didn't get the memo that she was an angel and needed to wear white. So Lexi with a bright pink shirt gets a towel wrapped around her at the last second which in the end looks like she has a cape on. She is higher than everyone else so she is visible to the whole crowd. Bright pink shirt, cape and all. She sure was cute and did a great job, but it was still quite funny.

My best friend for 2 days.

A couple weeks ago we had a service auction for an Institute activity. I didn't know what to auction off as my service. Some people told me to auction off a date but then I'd feel way cheap if no one bid on me or if i sold for like 2 dollars. So I used my imagination and decided to auction off a service to be best friends with someone for 2 days.

The more canned food you brought the more funny money you got to buy someone's service. & then we donated the food to Echo food bank.

I'm glad to say that the winner of my service is my dear friend Steph. This weird boy was trying to buy me so my friends all pitched their money together so Steph could buy me. I'm proud to say that I was the highest bid of the night haaa.

I had to dedicate a post to my new best friend cause what kind of friend wouldn't do that.

UH oH

Last Saturday I got to babysit this little one...

Livy likes to play with phones as I found out. So being the nice Aunt that I am I let her play with mine. In the mean time she managed to put my phone on lock. Yeah usually you think no big deal right? Just unlock it when she's done playing... This time no.

My friends Lacie and Charlton used to play this game where they take my phone and change my password to make me mad so I can't use my phone. However they would always unlock it for me so I could use it when I go home, but they would never tell me the password.

After Olivia locked my phone I called Lacie on Megan's house phone to ask her for the password.
Lacie: "Umm Charlton was the last one to change the password sorry..."

Great! Charlton is on a mission in FLORDIA! (just my luck)

After about 1 1/2 hours of playing with different passwords I figure it out. Thanks for practice for password hacking liv!

Coke or Pepsi


We all have our personal favorites of what drink we prefer. Personally I prefer Coke. Well my grandma on the other hand prefers Pepsi. She has always been a Pepsi woman.

On certain occasions I will go up to Dairy Queen and get my grandma and I some lunch and she always asks me to bring her a medium Pepsi. Well Dairy Queen doesn't have Pepsi products so at first I would stop at a gas station on the way home and get her a Pepsi. This got tiring after a while, so I decided to try out something...

Instead I just got her a coke from dairy queen to see if she would notice. and she didn't! So I kept doing that every time. Today I did that again and when I brought her it I asked her how her Pepsi was. She went off telling me it was good and how Pepsi has always been her favorite drink. I just laughed inside..

I would've noticed if someone did that to me, but I don't think its wrong if she doesn't notice do you think? :)

Halloween!!

For halloween I went to a dance that the Single's ward had. My sister Megan told me to be a nerd. So I was a NERD!


My costume consisted of:
1. high water pants
2. un-matching socks
3. suspenders
4. jump drive around the neck.
5. buttons not matched up on my shirt with pens in pocket.
6. two watches (don't ask just thought it sounded good)
7. ugly sweater
8. kick me sign on my back
9. uneven pigtails, i used lots of gel in my hair to add to the nerd effect.
10. last but not least glasses with tape in the middle.

I felt a little retarded showing up to the dance since most girls were princesses or cheerleaders or something to that effect. But no not me! I'm not like most girls I didn't go for cute, I went for ugly.

The dance was fun though. The good thing was I could dance however I wanted and could be retarded because I was a nerd and thats what nerds do.
 
We played this fun game where you get a partner and they rap you with toilet paper until you're covered (like a mummy). Unfortunately I didn't win. (That's me there on the right)

I usually don't like dances or halloween but it was a fun night. The real surprise was I got asked out on a date!

Who would've thought that me as a nerd would've attracted someone. hmmm its a mystery to me. Probably because he just got home from his mission 5 days ago. He needed a 1st date and knew the nerd wouldn't turn him down. haha thats probably it.

All Time Low Concert!

On Monday a couple of my friends and I went to a Concert in Albuquerque. We saw All Time Low, Mayday Parade, The Maine, & Every Avenue. They were pretty much amazing.
The line was pretty long to get in and we got pretty bored. 
hah Lacie and some famous cases.
We barely got in the theater in time to see the last song of the first band Every Avenue.
Next up was one of my favorites The Maine.
We sat up on the balcony most of the time since it was pretty crazy downstairs but this ^ picture is of Lacie and I at the bottom pushing our way up as far as we could go. Lace has a white hat and I'm right next to her.
Mayday Parade was awesome too.
Crowd sufing anyone?
Finally it was All Time Low! They played my favorite song of theirs so I was way excited when they played it. 
All in all it was the best concert ever!
