Epic Win

Yes, I changed the name of my blog. The other one was just bugging. Also, people say "epic fail" all the time. Why don't they say "epic win"?? That is so much better. So that is the new name of my blog. Epic win. AND most of my life is an epic win so it's quite appropriate. Here's a picture representing my epic wins in life.

byeeeeeee

I say goodbye to two great friends this week!!!
One is ky who is heading back down to SUU :( The school is just so far away... it's dumb. haha no offense. But really. It's bittersweet. I wanna get back to school really bad, but I'll definitely miss everyone while I'm gone down there! (shh we all know I come home every 2-3 weeks anyways). But here's me and Ky!

The other is Carson is leaving out for two years!! He's been an amazing friend to me and I will definitely miss talking to him a lot. But I know the mission is the best place in the world to be right now and only wish that I could be heading out somewhere right now to serve the Lord too! Good luck Carson!! You'll do amazing things out there for the people of Brazil!


BYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

Powell song

We'd listen to this ALL the time on the boat when I was out with the guys :) At first I was like, hmm gangsta music...but it has grown on me! Now every time I hear, "we could be anywhere in the world, but we right here" I think "mmmm Powell :):):)" and sunshine. It's fan freaking tastic.

Alicia's wedding!!

I can't believe it. My good old pal Alicia Torres is now...Alicia Cravens. It's crazy to think that one of my good friends from High School is now a Mrs. All of us are just in fear thinking, who's next?! haha I can tell you one thing. It will not be me. I am totally not ready for that quite yet. Some people just are I guess! I am very happy for Alicia. She's met the man of her dreams, David, and will be very very happy!! Here are some awesome pics celebrating my great friend Leeshy :) congrats girl! Love ya!!

Alicia, Me, Bree....and Andy...in Balboa California!!

Summer :)

So the past few weeks are REALLY feeling like summer. I participated in the following amazing activities:
    -Demolition Derby
    -Scofield
    -Lake Powell

It was absolutely incredible. I just loose my breath in happiness when I think about it all. The Demo Derby was WAY sweet!!

While down in little old Fairview Utah we also did a huge teeter totter.... 


And played in the river...it was pretty cold. But we put our heads in! 



Scofield is this random lake in the middle of nowhere. But it's a blast! No cell service, no people, just my fam and I having the best time ever :) I was so happy that my older siblings could make it out there because it was just a blast! We played cards on the private dock there and whenever someone lost in "scum" they had to jump into the lake! The water... freezing.... but it was a ton of fun and I even got some wakeboarding in before Powell!! When the boat broke we just went behind the jet skis and all was well :) It was a very fun 2 days. 

Now the grand-daddy of all the trips in the world: Lake Powell. The people who told you Disneyland was the "happiest place on earth" lied. Powell is the real happiest place on earth. 


I am just so cool. PS this was only my 5th time skiing ever.
Lake Powell made me love skiing. Before I would just wakeboard.
Or...attempt to wakeboard well. 
Brent, Donny and I happy as ever. Cuz we are in Lake Powell of course. We had fun :)
This is the crew. With the GIANT bonfire we set up in flames.
I am...such a nice sister.
I also did a backflip off the houseboat...unfortunately there are no photographs...

we went to rainbow bridge. Cool eh?
I jumped off that cliff. Some dumb boys made me do it. Ok and I kinda wanted to.
Me being a ham. 
I swam in the water. It was nice :)
these guys make me laugh :)
same with this guy.

Ok pretty much all the guys. It was sooooo much fun and I'm so happy I went and made some friendships stronger or made some new ones. Going with these guys was an adventure....but a very very good adventure. :) Love you guys!! 
Bradford and Ness. Pretty much the best brother and sister-in-law right there.
Thanks so much for inviting Tay and I! It was WAY worth that 6 hour drive leaving at 4am!!! :) 
Oh and...of course I went to the Harry Potter premier at midnight :) It was...the most amazing movie I've ever seen... I went in the theater acting like a creepy death eater (obviously) and scaring little children as they walked past, but I went out just dumbfounded and in love. They portrayed the book quite well and after seeing it that night, of course I had to see it a second time in theaters and i hope to see it a third! 


And here's the second time... a drastic change...I know! 




All in all life as we know it is grand and I'm loving it!!
