like a loaded potato, but with words.

friday.

my broken toes and i went to my cousin's wedding

in five inch heels and my yellow dress.

ashley, beth and jamie's date were the only blonde's there. 

'twas quite comical.

aside from dancing and watching a very enthusiastic 

white man dance an energetic salsa,

we ate delicious food and sipped on

what may just be the best drank ever.

 i must regrettably admit i am not sporting a double black eye in the photo above.
the stupid lights made me appear to be more legit than i am.
but one day people...one day i will rock the black eye like nobody's biznass.
after the reception,

we headed over to target so i could buy baby clothes

for my bff's baby shower the next day.

it was then i realized the fullness of my disease.
 it's official. 
baby sections in any store are harmful to my health.
{iwantababy.iwantonelikewoah.}

 saturday.

i finished bossypants.

it was brilliant.

i love tina fey more than words can express.

later that afternoon i went to sid's baby shower.
i won a lint roller and a pack of m&m's.
i gave the chocolate covered candies
to bethie and scottopher when i got home.
we spent the better part of an hour
in the same room, playing games on our pizzles
and speaking to or about our games.
i introduced scott to galaxy puzzle and bubble shooter;
two of what i thought to be the best games ever.
boooy was i wrong.
he introduced me to

 best.game.ever.
i can honestly say it has been the best 99 cents i have ever spent.
we went to jimmy john's with bree

and i wanted to slap my face for never trying their sandwiches before.
sogood.
after supper we headed back to bree's
so i could use free wifi to download tiny wings
while beth and bree painted their nails.
after waiting for hot pink paint to dry
we sped over to dan and craig's
for the maiden voyage of their new projector.
we thought we were going to watch
diary of a wimpy kid
but instead, they popped in
this bad boy.
it's even better the second time around.
after the movie,
beth, scott, bree and i went to coldstone.
scott ordered oatmeal cookie batter, cookie dough and cinnamon.
when i first heard that combination i grimaced.
then i tried it and
mama mia, that's-a-good-a-flavor!
 sunday.
after a free lunch with delicious strawberries
we laid out to read play tiny wings.
i looked up in the middle of my game 
to see weezy walking toward us.
we chatted for a good while and caught up on life.
after some more sunshine loving and tiny winging,
beth and i made dinner for some friends.
fyi world:
crissa makes the best desserts ever.
beth, bree and i went for a post-dinner bike/scooter ride
around the town.
after being followed around the library by a homeless man,

we rode to our hearts content in the maze that is 

underground parking. 

 
sslbijhtdhamww.
{sorry so long, but i just had to document how awesome my weekend was}

be kind, rewind.

so much has happened in the last week 

that the only way to tell you is to show you.

...

{lauren came to visit and we went to blickenstaff's}

{we went to dinner at happy sumo, wore our moustaches everywhere, 

met up with chase and went to spark}

{i dressed as a native}

{went to hp7 with the wolf-pack and some serious "models"}

{lola and i volunteered at the mtc and had a mini photo-shoot}

{sunday we went for a drive to the temple and got caught in a blizzard}

**note the obese cougar was not spotted on this drive**

{we made fried pickles! they were  just as snooki described

"crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside" = delicious} 

{please note the dramatic changes in foot wear from one day to the next.

utah is ridiculous}

five cents

i went to the nickelcade for the first time ever on friday.

it was magical.

i'm addicted.

ms. pacman ate two of my nickels.

dr. mario was just as i remembered.

tetris is so much better with a joystick.

plachinko {spelled phonetically} was a gold mine.

i had the worst of luck when it came to winning the jackpot.

i can jump virtual rope.

arctic freeze comes with cold air included.

i left itching to come back.

next time i'm getting a five dollar bucket.

high of seventy five.

remember how i was so excited to go to this place?

well i went.

it was amazing!!!

i'm going to break it down for you the easiest way i know how. 

day by day.

thursday.

we left provo around 11-ish

and by we i mean: beth, scott, brett and steph.

sidenote: they're all related.  

i was on a price family vacation.

i felt lucky.
especially when they made me hide when we got to arizona

so i wouldn't get deported.

on the way down we saw these signs for free samples of fresh alien jerky in baker.

we decided to stop in a check it out.

this is the first thing we saw when we pulled up.

a space trooper alien couple.

and guess what.

they had a baby.

a creepy, deformed, alien baby.

but on a lighter note, the peppered alien jerky was delicious,

the honey teriyaki jerky was decent,

and beth said the colon cleaner hot jerky wasn't that spicy.

we got to heaven late that night.

truth be told, i can't really remember when we got in. 

maybe ten thirty ish?

but it was great.

beth's family is awesome. 

friday.

!!!!!!!!!!disneyland!!!!!!!!!!

on the tram ride over to heaven.

we got there about eight and stayed until ten!

we basically walked on every single ride there.

indiana jones. {2x}

pirates. {2x}

tower of tower. {back to back}

thunder mountain. {4x}

star tours. {2x}

space mountain.

california coaster.

soaring over california.

and about a billion more. 

we saw the aladdin show.

met pooh, tigger and eyore.

and were apparently really excited to see goofy. 

we got a photo with mater

we saw a barber shop quartet riding on an incredible tandem on steroids.

saw some "incredible" california fashion.

this just proves that uggs are ugly and should never be worn with short shorts and pale legs.

we thought about eating here

but decided not to pay 6 bucks for a dog,

even if it was the best weiner in a supporting roll. 

we met this cute little kid on thunder mountain.

he was so excited and kept screaming "watch the goat, watch the goat!!"

after we told him our little secret.

it was great to see the magic of it all in his eyes. 

and the fireworks?

they were incredible. 

oh!  and brett finally got his giant turkey leg.

it was a dream come true. 

i really don't think words can describe how incredible disneyland was.

it had been a while and it was long overdue.

it really is the happiest place on earth.

saturday.

we woke up.

played beatles rockband and headed to the beach.

huntington beach to be exact.

us girls buried the boys into a few really incredible bodies.

first we gave scottie a major muscle man physique.

then brett wanted in on the fun.

so we made a mermaid and a merman.

we are talented when it comes to sand sculptures. 

we saw an amazing man side flip over six people.

and did a little shopping.

sunday.

we drove back.

it was tragic.

but we did see our favorite road.

the only redeeming part about the drive back was stopping at capriotti's.

i got the capastrami.

it.was.delicious.

i'd never had pastrami before.

and this first time really set the bar.

wow.

if only there was a sandwich shop in utah.

every other pastrami sandwich will pale in comparison.

mmmmm. so good.

another favorite part about the ride back was when beth and i rode in the front and controlled the music.

yeuhh booy!

well kids, there ya have it.

my exiting little holiday down to the sunshine state.

it was glorious and i wish it never ended.

white cabin.

potluck at gordon's grandparent's cabin.

so fun.

here are some photographs.

pretty people.

craigoroy...modeling...

two/thirds. and gordon's bottom. 

colored.

for the past three years i've gone to the festival of colors.

i love it.

that's probably why i keep going back.

but instead of reading me ramble on and on about how fun it was,

why don't you just take a looksee at my fotos.

enjoy children.
