So sadly I will not be going to Texas for Thanksgiving but I am with my very best roommate Caitlin and her family in Provo and Salt Lake. So we left Thursday and Caitlin's friend Jewels drove us to Provo. It was a nice drive only took about 3 hours.
we finally got to Caitlin's older sister Erin's apartment. It was nice to be out of the car and to walk around. Well then Aaron Mendoza came over and we went for a walk and just talked for a little bit. It was really nice to see him after 7 months!!! Well then Caitlin and I went to sleep and got up and got ready for the day.. We went and explored and walked around campus it was pretty fun, we went to the BYU book store and looked at books for about 2 hours.. Yes we are nerds haha and yes we were in the Science section looking at books haha it was awesome!! Well then Erin met up with us and we went to the Creamery and got some delicious Ice Cream!!! Then after that we went back to Erin's place and just relaxed and then I went and hung out with Aaron! Went and saw Magda mind in 3D,which was hilariously funny! Then Aaron and I went and ate at 5 guys which was really good. After that we went back to his place and watched Ace Vachura which was even more funny, then Richard, Aaron's friend, wanted to hang out so we went with them driving around, and then stopped at a park with this swing that had 4 swings and swung around, as we swung around it turned! It didn't work that great so we went to the playground and then walked around the pond skipping rocks..
It was pretty fun! Then we drove around for a while and then Richard took me "home" (Erin's place. Then I went to sleep... Well the next day was very exciting we woke up got ready to go see the New Harry Potter Movie!!! Well Megan came by and Caitlin and Megan made these delicious Pumpkin Ice Pancakes, it was really good! We didn't have milk so they got creative!! Well Aaron stopped by for a little bit then left, and then the girls headed to HP it was awesome we all piled in we all sang the whole way there!! Then we all got excited waiting in line and the Cate, Jocelyn, and Caitlin went and took a picture with Harry Potter =)
Way cute then we all took pictures with the posters haha well after that intense movie we went to IN AND OUT which is soooooo good I have missed that place! Well it was Erin's first time being there so we got her a hat and everything it was awesome!
Well Aaron came by and picked me up and we went back to his place till Richard was ready to go bowling! So we watched Aladdin until Richard got there well bowling was pretty fun, Aaron walking his strut every time he got a strike haha and Richard beating us! It was a lot of fun!
Well then we went and drove around, and then went to Spoon Me, A tart ice cream place, it was really good! then went back to Aaron's house and played Blounko's, which was really funny because I beat Aaron 3 times.. He wasn't to happy about that haha, then we decided to watched Step up 2 which was fun.. Well I fell asleep and Aaron woke me up and then took me home!! Well then Caitlin and I got up at 3 in the morning to go to Salt Lake to Caitlin's Aunt and Uncles house, why so early you are asking well it was because Erin had to be at the airport early so they just dropped us off on the way!! Well I woke up to go to church at 8am we went with Amy to one of her friends homecoming talk which was really good, but I was so tired it was hard for me to stay awake.. Well then we went to her friends house to have food and mingle, which was really good! We talked with Danny's dad for a little bit then went to the Singles ward where they were having Nacho's and so forth then finally came home and had some amazing Sloppy Joe's! Yes I do not like Sloppy Joe's but Caitlin's Uncle makes some amazing Sloppy Joe's. After that Caitlin and I were ready to Hibernate for a few hours so we went and took a nap. We woke up at 6 pm and went over to Amy's to watch a movie which was fun then came home and went to sleep again!!
Well today was pretty fun, Caitlin and I got to sleep in till about 10 am and then got ready before Caitlin's Aunt got home to take us home to Temple Square! First we went to the Church History Library where Caitlin's aunt is a missionary!! We got to go and take a tour of the facility; it is truly amazing to see what the church has set up for us and our family history! In the place you can see journals, attendances rolls, magazines, books, pictures, and etc from all over the world about family members! It was really fun to see all of that! Then Caitlin and I went to the Salt Lake temple and walked around the temple and took some amazing pictures! I think it is interesting to be on such a spiritual grounds and Satan trying to put dumb songs in your head that you weren't even thinking before then! So Caitlin and I would start singing Hymns which helped a lot! Well once we got around the temple Sean, Caitlin's Cousin, met up with us and then went and took a tour with us of the new conference center which was amazing to see the facility and how big it is, to go on the roof and see the temple right across the street and to see all the original art work that we have seen our whole lives in manuals and in the church. Well after that we went to the Lion's House to eat dinner with Caitlin's Uncle and Aunt! Then we came home and now making Sloppy Joe's for her uncles thing tomorrow!! Lots of fun!!
I will continue the Journey as the week goes! But here is a update in my life!
