Pics from my vacation...

Here are the pictures that I promised to post from my vacation to Utah! These aren't in any particular order, so I'll make sure to put captions.

This is from two weeks ago when we (my family and Kelsey's family) all got together to watch The Next Food Network Star with Kelsey. We had a blast, and I learned a lot of fun stuff about the show...

Fun with glow sticks on Independence Day... This is me, BTW.

Our float in the Granite neighborhood Independence Day Parade. I designed the shirts!!!

Not a flattering picture of me, I know; but it's the only one of all the Bottle Cap Buddies together. This is at the wedding reception. From left to right... my dad's cousin Aliyah, then my second cousin Hayley, then me, then my other second cousin Brandon.

The bottle caps came from the Jones Soda the night before at the Groom's Dinner. You see, there are fortunes inside, and if you put "On the toilet" at the end of them... well... It was fun, we'll put it like that.

 

At the airport waiting for Grandma and Grandpa to come home from Africa. From left to right, cousin Maggie, me, cousin Kate, Ashley, and cousin Megan. Man, I'm tall...

Ashley and I with our long lost pal, Kirsten!!! We were even color coordinated- aren't we fancy? Yeah. We went up into the canyon and roasted tons of stuff with this amazing fire. Even carrots.

Why am I always wearing this red shirt?

Anyway, here I am at East High School. It's really not far away at all from my grandparent's house, and we passed it a total of four times when we were there.

Hayley and I after our shopping trip. You can read more about it in one of my past posts... And no... I don't have my contacts yet. : ( My glasses are just abnormally reflective, and plus I like the way I look without them.

I love those shoes...

Here I am at the Mansion place where Kelsey and Robby had their wedding reception... and holy tacos! That was the fanciest thing I have ever, ever, ever been to. Dude, some guy in a white tuxedo offered me COCONUT shrimp in a satisfyingly tangy sweet and sour sauce! I love that stuff... Anyway, the reception was great- simply fabulous. I wish it could have lasted longer, even though I would have gotten tired of the luxury of it all after a while.

Also, there was a photo booth there. Hayley! Brandon! Do you guys have anyway to send me some of those hysterical photos via email? I feel the need to share them in the blogging world.

Anyway... I feel that you've gotten a taste of my vacation to Utah. It was so incredibly fun! I would love to still be there, but I'm glad to be home and see my friends... and sleep in my own bed!

It's good to be back.
