Friends, family, and fans of blogging.
I'm sorry for not posting in ages! I don't even hardly remember what's happened the past month, so basically I'll just dump a bunch of pictures!
Jean's older sister Frances sent us both this picture:
This was when I went to Arizona. Right when I got there, we both just fell asleep on the bed haha. And that monkey stuffed animal was staring at us the whole time! Kind of creepy. I sure do miss Jean though! I'm so lucky to have had her as my roomie.
My dad and Kendra spent a week in Hawaii, and I got shirtless beach pictures like this about every day:
I babysat a whole bunch in California. My go-to activity was taking them to the park and introducing them to my favorite swing activity when I was little. They all just LOVED it! Take a look for yourself.
With each kid, I literally did it probably 30 times over and over. It's a crowd pleaser!
Remember how I said I spilled chocolate on myself at Kaila's graduation party? Yeah, here's that. Corb sent me the picture after I had already published the last post.
Utah had some pretty crazy sky! I wasn't actually there, but I saw enough pictures on Facebook and Instagram that I felt like I was. Here's my favorite picture...but I don't remember who took it...whoops!
Another babysitting job, just the cute little Jack. He got hiccups and it was the cutest.
Look at these chunky legs!
One family I babysat had a birthday party I got to go to with the fam, and holy cow their house is incredible!! Especially their backyard:
Arianna was my temple buddy while I was in California!
It's great to have a friend to go with! Just love her.
This is my favorite picture:
I got some paint supplies to keep me busy. Here's my haul:
While I was in Michael's buying it all, it was taking awhile so I texted Corb this:
Never been called a craft slut before, that's a new one haha.
So I got to painting. I've never painted before (besides in like preschool, but that doesn't really count, right?), but it really was so fun. Nice to have a creative outlet!
And I'm pleased with the outcome!
One weekend, me, Arianna, and Andrea went to a wedding reception.
Oh my goodness, it was the most perfect reception I've ever seen! I was beyond jealous. Every single detail was spot on. Take a looksie:
This picture cracks me up. Andrea (on the right) is so intense cutting up her food!
I was home alone one Sunday after church and heard tapping on the window. It was freaking me out until I found the source:
poor bird!
I was basically Corbin's assistant with all his filming ventures. We started working on his new nature project. We went swimming and took a bunch of shots, then went out on a cool walking path into the woods.
Him and his girlfriend Kellsie are so cute. I like sitting in on their skype dates (:
More babysitting:
We all found our names on little license plates! That never happens.
I can't get enough of this cute girl and her wild hair.
I went on splits again with these amazing sisters!! It was the best day. And I found out that a lady we taught the last time I was with them is getting baptized. Ahh it makes me so happy! I get chills thinking about it. Can't wait for my turn to teach in San Fernando!!
A blackmail picture of Kendra
All of us packed up and headed back to Utah. We had so many suitcases!
I had a couple days with my Utah family before I went to Park City for the Bishop family reunion.
Jayci, Libby, and I went to see "The Internship" and had the whole theater to ourselves!
Went to a free concert in the park for Family Night. I love my mom's duck face.
Girl scout cookies+live music+family=perfection.
I made some hair bows that I'm pretty proud of. I love them!
My mom and sisters and I went to Park City and spent some time together before they dropped me off for the reunion. We had fun going up and down main street, eating ice-cream, riding the trolley, and of course shopping.
The family reunion was so fun! On Saturday we went to Lagoon, I love that place. Roller coasters are my favorite, and it's great to catch up with all my amazingly great cousins that I don't see enough of!
I taught Kennedy how to do "rock on," and she did it all the time.
I may have bought a bunch of vintage stamps off of ebay...they were cheap and I love them. They'll be perfect for all the mission announcements I'm sending out!
She stole my phone and left me a bunch of pictures of herself.
On Tuesday, I went back to Iceberg to talk to Don about working a couple shifts here and there before I left if he was ever short on people. But instead, he just hired me right on the spot! I started that day and worked 20 hours last week, then work 28 this week. It is SUCH a blessing to be able to get a job anytime I need one, so glad that Iceberg is always there as a back up plan!
I made a cute little 'hello' doormat this week and I'm a bit in love with how it turned out. Just a $5 doormat from Ikea, then some special kind of paint from Home Depot.
Also I really love this picture, it's how I feel a lot of the times (or what I
want to feel):
On Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday we had the Williams family reunion
Look how many of us! And a bunch couldn't make it, sadly. Including Corbin! Our family is now a family of 108. It's so crazy!
Finally got to see Jason (middle) and Eric again! Jason has been in Japan for his mission and just got back. And now I'm leaving for mine...so it was a hello after two years, and a goodbye for another two years!
Monday afternoon no reunion festivities were happening so me, Andrew, and his sister Katie hung out. We got Cafe Rio, then went to the driving range on south mountain which I've never been to before! I actually did surprisingly well (for someone who doesn't golf...).
I got more film for more poloroid camera, so here's a picture of the poloroid we took. My phone camera refused to focus on it, so it's pretty blurry!
Then we went to this random cave. You had to go through the entrance on your belly and sort of army crawl for a bit, and then it opened up so you could stand. It was a little freaky!
Tuesday we went to the park for some activities
Later that night we had a 'scaventure' where we split into groups and had different activities to do, one of which included visiting my grandpa William's grave and leaving a note. He was an amazing man!!
For another activity we had to do a service for someone, and we saw a guy in his yard cleaning so we went and helped him pick up a ton of branches.
I made this, just randomly for fun because I like stuff like this.
It says bliss, in case you couldn't tell
Ok that'll do! I'll try to be better at blogging until I leave.
WHICH IS IN THREE WEEKS!!!
How did that happen? No one knows. But it's freaking me out. Thanks for reading!
