My little weekend

Ta da! Guess who hasn't blogged for ever? I haven't! Well, Mr. Trevor, it's time to get back on track! Ah ha! Ok, here goes...

Alright, so on Friday I didn't go to the election dance 1) because I didn't want to, and 2) because I wasn't elected! (But I'm not bitter or anything so it's all good.) So instead of going to the dance I went to my house with one of my best buds, Jason! Jason and I just hung out at my house until Parker got back from the dance, and then we called Sterling... But of course he couldn't hang out because he had a karate tournament or something. So Parker, Jason and I all did stupid/awesome things at my house that night until 11:00! Hehe... Here are a few of the things we did.

  • TIRE SWING MADNESS!!!!! Once you get going, you'll never stop!
  • Being chased around by my little sister. (Which was not really fun it was more annoying because, no matter how many times she deny's it, you can totally tell she's in love with Parker)
  • Monkey balloon tower defense!! (If you have not played that game, it's so stupid but it's way addicting!)
  • Etc, etc...

Saturday morning at 9:00 I had my first lacrosse game. It was really fun! ...Except that we had to forfeit because not enough people showed up. And I got a huge wallop in the leg by the ball which was going at 100 miles per hour. And I twisted my ankle. And I got whacked in the back a lot... But otherwise it was a pretty good first experience! After I got home I had a long shower, then I called over Parker and Jason again. Sterling still couldn't hang out because he still had his karate tournament, so we started to play Monkey balloon tower defense again! (Note: That game gets really boring if you've been playing for two strait hours and you have so much defense and so many balloons that the computer lags sooooooo much!!) After Sterling's tournament was supposed to be over, we called him again... But he had a party to go to, and I had to go to my little sister's piano recital. After that was over I went to Parker's house and that's where I stayed for the rest of the night! (Many fun things happened that night that I will not talk about.)

On Sunday I had to get up early because the Deacon's needed help with fast-offerings (like always). After that I went to church. It was great. For Sunday dinner we had a ton of family come over! (Because it was fast Sunday and it was my mom's birthday) I did get some bad news that day though. I found out that I had a new cousin. His name is Isaac... But my uncle isn't married. :(

Well that was my weekend. Over and out.

Spring Break or Spring Fake?

Ok, since it's finally the end of Spring Break, I have decided that I need to post something about it. It started out very nice on a Monday, but then it got very boring on Tuesday. Let me give you the whole rundown.
  • Monday: Called Parker at about 11:00 to see if he wanted to film that day, but it was raining so we called it off. Then I just went over to his house and stayed there for the day.
  • Tuesday: Oh my gosh! Probably the most boring day of my entire life! I had nothing to do, no friends to hang out with, no nothing for anything! So finally at 4:30 I had lacrosse practice and that kept me doing something until 6:30. I was starving when I got home so I downed a whole Powerade container and had a slice and a half of pizza. Then I called Parker to tell him happy birthday and he invited me over to his house. (It was very nice because I was superbly, epically bored!!)
  • Wednesday: I started out this day by doing chores. (Ugh) After I got through with those I called Parker and I came to his house. When I got there we decided to walk down to Smith's to get 5 pounds of gummy worms! On our way there we stopped at Sterling's house and got him to come too. Once we got to Smith's and had the gummy worms, we walked back to my house and sat on my play-set eating our wonderful snacks. Then Parker's parents came and picked him up so they could go to Texas Roadhouse to eat dinner that night. So Sterling and I decided that it would be fun to film the rest of the movie I was making! So that's what we did until Parker came back, and when Parker came back, Sterling had to go. What a cowinkidink, eh?! And then we hung out at my house until 11:00, then his dad came and picked him up.
  • Thursday: My mother decided that it would be fun to go up and visit my grandma today, so that's where we went! We got up there around lunchtime and we had lunch. (Rolls with peanut butter and jam) Then once we got finished with lunch, we went mini golfing! Oh what fun! It was a nice day too, considering that Monday and Tuesday had been ugly with snow. After we finished mini golfing, (which by the way I won!) we went back to my grandma's house and stayed there until about 5:00. I had a play I was going to that night with a bunch of friends from the Joseph cast. It was Singing in the Rain. So we went to that and it was going pretty good, but then evil showed up and confronted me right in the mouth. That's right! In the mouth! Jacob Pixton at intermission had bought that movie popcorn down at the concessions stand. If you have never seen or tasted evil, movie popcorn is it!! I knew that I didn't do well with movie popcorn, but I was pretty hungry and it tasted so good! Then I went home.
  • Friday: My father had just gotten home from Chicago Thursday night, so we decided that we should do something as a family today. So after breakfast we went to Discovery Park! That is my favorite park in the whole world! It is made out of all wood and there are these little spinney thingies that you go around and around on until you will never be able to walk in a strait line again for the rest of your sorry life! So after we got finished with the park we went back to the house and got lunch. Then we decided it would be fun to go tubing up in Park City! So that's where we headed! Once we got up there, the tubing slopes looked pretty pitiful. People were sliding only halfway down, and then they stopped and had to walk their tube the rest of the way... So we decided to go to the Living Planet Aquarium instead! We got there and I wasn't feeling too good. I had to go sit in the car about halfway through the trip just because I couldn't walk anymore! On the ride home, I really wasn't feeling good. Right before we got home, I asked my dad to pull over the car. No sooner had he done it than, BLECH!! All over the dirt on the side of the road! This is why that stupid movie popcorn is so evil. It looks all nice and tastes wonderful... But the stupid fake butter totally kills the stomach! So I spent the rest of the day throwing up and being sick! Woo hoo! Ugh...
  • Saturday: Saturday was pretty much wasted for me because of my sickness. I just lied on the couch all day sleeping. (Which, by the way, sleeping is very uncomfortable if you sleep in jeans) Dinner looked great! ...But I dared not eat it because I knew if I did it would all come right back up. So I just went to bed. (And it was hard to fall asleep because of all of the napping I had done all day!)
  • Sunday: I feel a ton better today! It's only morning right now, but I'm planning on going to church and everything so that's Sunday.

So the week started off nicely on Monday, but then Tuesday was horrible. Wednesday and Thursday were ok, but Friday and Saturday were agonizing. So this is what I ask all of you, dear blog readers, was this a Spring Break, or a Spring Fake?

I should probably do something else too..... Haha have a nice day!
