Tea Party!

This was the "Master Sheet" of all the ladies tables, showing where they all were supposed to be seated.

Yesterday was the Tea Party, it was a crazy party this year, but sooo much fun!! We had (I think) a little less than 100 women this year. The largest group we've had in the 9 years we've done the tea party! The guys were such a big help this year!! In the past, Brittany and I would serve all the ladies by ourselves, but the last few years, we've grown in the amount of women we get each year, that we need the guys to help. This year they did all the serving and we helped in the kitchen with our mom's, and set up some of the games. Over all, the party turned out really good we all had alot of fun! ;DI love that the guys get all dressed up fancy. Soo handsome! :)All the servers back:Branden, Jason, Timothy, Jonathan, and Danny. Front :Brittany and I. :)A little 'behind the scenes" pictures of us all crowded into Sis. Dayna's kitchenMe and my sistas <3
Our turn to rest...And eat <3

Thanks to the sisters that stayed and served us tea! We love you all <3

Scandinavian Festival

Awwwwww!

Yippeee! Its the Scandinavian Festival this week! Even though I'm not in the festival this year, I had to at least dress up once in my costume! The festival started yesterday, and basically all the festival is, is eating and dancing. A lot of dancing. The food is great, its something I look forward to every year.

Bro. Branden, Sis. Dayna, Sis. Britt, and ME!

Anyways, I took some pictures of Brittany and I in our costumes. Tomorrow I'll try and post some videos of our Scandinavian dances, it won't be as cool watching it as a video, but it'll give you a little taste of what we used to do every year. ;)Just a picture of our full dresses. Lots of layers...soooo hot!Looks like Brittany is throwing up. I don't think we were expecting this shot to be taken. ;) I just look...weird.

Random picture of us. Britt's whispering and I'm trying to look shocked. Not a great actress.

The Prank

I'm home! We got home around 11:30 last night, and I'm exhausted! I very much enjoyed our stay in Idaho, but it was a fast trip, and we weren't able to see everyone. Maybe next time I can stay a little longer...
Bro. Danny and Sis. Kristen played a mean little prank on me on our way up. I was trying to get some rest on our way to Idaho because we were going to get there around 3a.m, so as I slept they decided to slam on the breaks, and scream like we were gonna get in an accident. I can proudly say, I didn't scream like a little girl. I just sunk in the corner of my seat and held on to the sides of the car waiting for a horrible accident. It pretty much was like this ('cept I didn't scream ;) ):

It was the meanest thing, but we ( or should I say THEY) got a good laugh out of it. That's one of my worst fears, is getting in a bad car accident. Just you wait guys...just you wait. >:)

BUT, we did have a good time on the way home! We decided to play a game of..actually I don't know what it's called, but we made up a story by taking turns saying what was happening. It made the car ride go by SO much faster, and there were alot of good laughs... Too bad we didn't write it down. Anyways, I'm glad to be home!!

Church

Today we had a nice surprise at church. As I was sitting down and listening to some of the brethren chatting about different things, in rolls a girl I haven't seen in church for about 5 months! Yes, 5 months. Sis. Brittany came cruising in in her wheel chair! A lot of us didnt know she was going to try and make it, but it was an awesome just to see her smile as she came rolling in. She had a huge grin on her face, this is something shes waited to do since probably the time she got bad. So, today was a good day! God sure is amazing.
