Festival of Colors

This past weekend I went down to Spanish Fork with two of my good friends Kenzie Lawlor and Katie Clyde. The reason was so that we could attend the Festival of Colors, it is a day where the immigrants from India celebrate Spring. They light a huge bom fire, say some chant and then we all throw ground up dyed chalk into the air. We obvisiouly got covered from head to toe with chalk and at some points it was really really hard to breath, but I can't think of a better way to welcome Spring!!!!

Spring Break!

For Spring Break I decided to not go to Mexico because of all the stuff that is happening down there and instead went to California! We went to Balboa Island, Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, Disney land, St. George and anywhere else our hearts desired! I had so much fun but my favorite day was when we went to Disneyland since I hadn't been there for about 12 years!In St. George some of my guy friends spent the day with us before heading to Vegas.

In Disneyland I took the "Kissing Test" and apparently my skills are thrilling....

When we were in the Huntington Beach area all of us girls got dressed up and went out to dinner. It was so much fun, people kept looking at us weird though cause we went to a place comparable with the Cheesecake Factory, so we were a little over dressed.

Newport Beach

One night when we stayed at one of the girl's aunt's hour in California we had a camp fire and roasted marshmallows and did fire dances!

Lunch with Grandma Hall

This afternoon I met up with my Mom and Grandma and went to lunch with them at A&W's in Smithfield. During the meal I brought up that a couple of nights ago my roommates and I got on a website where we all designed our dream wedding ring. I then told my grandma that Emily's ring was really pretty and was about $2300, then I asked her what she thought my dream ring would cost. At first she avoided the question talking about how her first right was only about $400 but I promptly reminded her of my question and she spat out the figure of $4000. Before I told her my mom assured grandma that it was a really pretty ring, it's just a rather large diamond. So I finally told her that it was around $7100 and quicker than a cat my grandma said, and I quote, "You aren't worth it!" Now when my grandma says something that she knows is funny she starts to laugh quietly at first and then her body starts to shake, and she finally will start to burst out in laughter.....and that is just what she did. I am not real sure how I am supposed to take this since she once told me that she loves me, which she doesn't verbalize often. Oh I love my Grandma!!!!
